new(options, output) public

Formatters are initialized with options and output arguments. RSpec’s built-in formatters already expect this, and any custom formatters should as well.

Parameters

options:A struct containing boolean values for colour, autospec, and dry_run
output:Used by RSpec’s built-in formatters to determine where to write the output. Default is STDOUT, otherwise a filename is expected.

Example

If you invoke the spec command with: 

  --format progress:progress_report.txt

… the value of output will be progress_report.txt. If you don’t identify an output destination, the default is STDOUT.
