nobb

Silence all console output by redirecting stdout and stderr to the null device.

Usage

Add to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
nobb = "0.1"

Example:

fn main() {
    println!("This will be shown");
    nobb::silence();
    println!("This will NOT be shown");
    eprintln!("Errors also silenced");
}

Notes

• Works by calling libc::freopen to redirect OS-level streams to the null device.
• On Unix, uses /dev/null; on Windows, uses NUL.
• This affects the entire process; subsequent println!/eprintln! from any crate will be silenced.
