Write output into a text file

Question

I am trying to write the output of a command of Geth into a text file. Something like this in the case of Windows:

ipconfig /all > c:\my_directory\file_name.txt

Is it possible? If yes, how?

Answer 1

Directing the output of the geth command as such works

geth --verbosity 3 console > ~/output.text

The verbosity for geth goes up to 5, which might help in determining whether the output was just not being logged.

Note: verbosity greater than 3 does log a lot of information that probably won't be relevant to you and might cause a lot of extra noise
