Similar to +IO.popen+, but provides a much more generic interface to +stdin+, +stdout+, # +stderr+ and the +pid+. We also attempt to tidy up as much as possible given some kind of error or # exception. You may write to +output+, and read from +input+ and +error+. # # Typical usage looks similar to +IO.popen+: # count = 0 # result = Task.open(["ls", "-la"], :passthrough => :err) do |task| # count = task.output.read.split(/\n/).size # end # puts "Count: #{count}" if result.exitstatus == 0 # # The basic command can simply be a string, and this will be passed to +Kernel#exec+ which will perform # shell expansion on the arguments. # # If the command passed is an array, this will be executed without shell expansion. # # If a +Proc+ (or anything that +respond_to? :call+) is provided, this will be executed in the child # process. Here is an example of a long running background process: # # daemon = Proc.new do # # Long running process # sleep(1000) # end # # task = Task.open(daemon, :daemonize => true, :in => ..., :out => ..., :err => ...) # exit(0) # # ==== Options # # [+:passthrough+, +:in+, +:out+, +:err+] # The current process (e.g. ruby) has a set of existing pipes +$stdin+, +$stdout+ and # +$stderr+. These pipes can also be used by the child process. The passthrough option # allows you to specify which pipes are retained from the parent process by the child. # # Typically it is useful to passthrough $stderr, so that errors in the child process # are printed out in the terminal of the parent process: # Task.open([...], :passthrough => :err) # Task.open([...], :passthrough => [:in, :out, :err]) # Task.open([...], :passthrough => :all) # # It is also possible to redirect to files, which can be useful if you want to keep a # a log file: # Task.open([...], :out => File.open("output.log")) # # The default behaviour is to create a new pipe, but any pipe (e.g. a network socket) # could be used: # Task.open([...], :in => IO.pipe) # # [+:daemonize+] # The process that is opened may be detached from the parent process. This allows the # child process to exist even if the parent process exits. In this case, you will also # probably want to specify the +:passthrough+ option for log files: # Task.open([...], # :daemonize => true, # :in => File.open("/dev/null"), # :out => File.open("/var/log/child.log", "a"), # :err => File.open("/var/log/child.err", "a") # ) # # [+:env+, +:env!+] # Provide a environment which will be used by the child process.
