Answer 1

You can configure the Gradle log format using console command line parameter, as described here : https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/command_line_interface.html#rich_console

Try with : ./gradlew run --console=plain

Answer 2

I know your question is specific to using the gradle wrapper, but if you're using the Gradle Tooling API, you can control the color output via setColorOutput. Combined with the --quiet argument (set via withArguments), this results in plain-text output.

Answer 3

Another way of doing this seems to be by setting the TERM environment variable to dumb.

Try TERM=dumb ./gradlew run
