Color issues when running the program under a systemd service

[ynerant]

Hi!

First, thanks for the great framework to make pretty terminal applications :)

I am currently working on a SSH application, using Wish and BubbleTea. In particular, I am using somewhere a colored progress bar. This is working well.

To manage and start properly my application, I am using a simple systemd service:

[Unit]
Description=My SSH application
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/path/to/binary
WorkingDirectory=/path/to/
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=15s

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

And when I start this service, the SSH server is working well, but my terminal has no color, all is black and white. This happens only when I run the application through the systemd service. When I manually launch the binary, the colors are well displayed.

Do you know the origin of the issue, and how to fix it? I don't really want to keep my application opened in a tmux :D

are you using the bubbletea middleware? it does set a color profile, so that should work

@aymanbagabas is this related to charmbracelet/bubbles#152 do you think? Seems similar to a discussion I saw in the Slack 🤔

For an example of how to do autodetection of clients using wish and passing through to lipgloss, see ssh-wars

Note that I forked and modified bubbles and lipgloss, so check my go.mod for replace directives

fwiw, for now you can force a profile: https://github.com/charmbracelet/wish/blob/v0.5.0/bubbletea/tea.go#L46

Keep in mind it will apply to all sessions though

FWIW just to clarify: you can use wish.MiddlewareWithColorProfile to force a color profile for all sessions in the meantime.

this should be fixed by #197 (on main)
