Lower verbosity (print statements only) for textual console

[davetapley]

I found a solution!

Does anyone else find it frustrating to have to grep pages of this:

ount() >>> Container(id='selects', pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) 
method=<Widget.on_mount>
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:579
Resize(size=Size(width=55, height=5), virtual_size=Size(width=55, height=5)) >>> 
Container(id='selects', pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) method=None
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:579
Show() >>> Container(id='selects', pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) method=None
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:570
Mount() >>> Select(pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) method=<Select.on_mount>
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:570
Mount() >>> Select(pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) method=<Widget.on_mount>
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:579
Resize(size=Size(width=27, height=3), virtual_size=Size(width=27, height=3), 
container_size=Size(width=21, height=1)) >>> Select(pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) 
method=None
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:579
Show() >>> Select(pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) method=None
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:570
Mount() >>> Select(pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) method=<Select.on_mount>
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:570
Mount() >>> Select(pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) method=<Widget.on_mount>
[10:05:21] EVENT                                               message_pump.py:579
Resize(size=Size(width=28, height=3), virtual_size=Size(width=28, height=3), 
container_size=Size(width=22, height=1)) >>> Select(pseudo_classes={'enabled'}) 
method=None

Just to find a print they put in to quickly debug something?

[10:05:21] PRINT                                                        main.py:37
Some helpful info

If so please give this a 👍🏻

I presume it would be a fairly simple PR since we already have:

textual/src/textual/devtools/renderables.py

Lines 107 to 110 in ab0de01

	if group == "PRINT":
	yield Styled(Segments(self.segments), "bold")
	else:
	yield from self.segments

Could either add new --print-only flag, or maybe make -v an enum? 🤔

So after a bit more 👀 I found this is already possible with: textual console -x EVENT

-x excludes 'log groups' and those are:

textual/src/textual/_log.py

Lines 4 to 15 in ab0de01

	class LogGroup(Enum):
	"""A log group is a classification of the log message (*not* a level)."""
	UNDEFINED = 0 # Mainly for testing
	EVENT = 1
	DEBUG = 2
	INFO = 3
	WARNING = 4
	ERROR = 5
	PRINT = 6
	SYSTEM = 7
	LOGGING = 8

---

To exclude everything except warning, errors, and print statements:

textual console -x SYSTEM -x EVENT -x DEBUG -x INFO

Log groups are also displayed next to the timestamp in the logs.

Aha, so they are! I'm just doing a docs PR and I'll mention that too 🙏🏻
