colors.color(string) not working when using with Grunt

[mgingras]

Running a nodejs application through Grunt I noticed that strings colored using color(string) were not colored, however, by using string.color the color was picked up.

Since, the stdout is not a TTY, colors will be disabled. Check the code here. I assume that grun takes the output from colors and then prints it. You must use colors.enabled option once you require this module to enable colors even though the stdout is not a TTY.

@pksunkara - You should review the code path for supports colors and https://github.com/Marak/colors.js/blob/master/lib/extendStringPrototype.js to ensure that colors support is being correctly applied to both APIs.

It would also be good to add test coverage for this.

I actually merged a fix related to this in #97

@mgingras Related to what @Marak was saying, both the stringPrototype and the normal api works the same now, both shouldn't be printing colors now. I guess my first comment can be confusing without this context.

So, if you want colors to be printed for either of the api, you need to use the enabled option.
