Set max padding?

[hverlin]

Hi,

Thanks for this great project!

I was just wondering if it would be possible to update the logic that adds a padding for the job name here:

gitlab-ci-local/src/parser.ts

Lines 163 to 167 in 5062d6a

	// Find jobNamePad
	this.jobs.forEach((job) => {
	this._jobNamePad = Math.max(job.name.length, this._jobNamePad ?? 0);
	});

The reason is that for some parallel jobs, the name can become very long, and it's not possible to control it as they are generated.
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/yaml/#parallelmatrix

parallel:matrix jobs add the variable values to the job names to differentiate the jobs from each other
Moreover, the current logic takes into account all jobs (not just the ones that will get executed)

Could we add a yargs option or environment variable to simply set this._jobNamePad to 0?
Happy to raise a PR

Yes, just close this discussion and create and feature issue and start working on a PR

--max-jobname-lenght=100
