RFC details

@sivakumar-kailasam I suspect some of the analytics stuff that @twokul wrote could be purposed for this.

[stefanpenner]

what format should the output be?
Ideally we optimize for readability as well.

[stefanpenner]

we should also detect and log.

• watchman
• path/to/node
• path/to/npm
• node_modules that exist above the current cwd()

[stefanpenner]

👍

[stefanpenner]

non i can think of.

[sivakumar-kailasam]

@stefanpenner I was thinking of markdown since it would be easy to drag drop and good for readability in the issues. Here's a sample I generated from my ember-cli repo,

If this output looks good I'll raise a PR

[sivakumar-kailasam]

@bcardarella The analytics module being a wrapper over insight might help in looking at stats over the user base anonymously and is currently limited for viewing to folks from the core team. May be we can start writing these analytics' tracking messages to a file so that whenever ember debug is run it could include those messages as well. This PR aims at providing a file in an issue so that the details are available to anyone viewing the issue.

@stefanpenner thoughts on this?

[twokul]

hm, I think build time of the trees + errors should be a part of ember-debug file. Analytic in Ember CLI s is just for gathering stats, it won't help you much to debug.
