Constructor Details
- (ShellOut) initialize(*command_args)
Arguments:
Takes a single command, or a list of command fragments. These are used as arguments to Kernel.exec. See the Kernel.exec documentation for more explanation of how arguments are evaluated. The last argument can be an options Hash.
Options:
If the last argument is a Hash, it is removed from the list of args passed to exec and used as an options hash. The following options are available:
-
user: the user the commmand should run as. if an integer is given, it is used as a uid. A string is treated as a username and resolved to a uid with Etc.getpwnam
-
group: the group the command should run as. works similarly to user
-
cwd: the directory to chdir to before running the command
-
umask: a umask to set before running the command. If given as an Integer, be sure to use two leading zeros so it's parsed as Octal. A string will be treated as an octal integer
-
returns: one or more Integer values to use as valid exit codes for the subprocess. This only has an effect if you call error! after run_command.
-
environment: a Hash of environment variables to set before the command is run. By default, the environment will always be set to 'LC_ALL' => 'C' to prevent issues with multibyte characters in Ruby 1.8. To avoid this, use :environment => nil for no extra environment settings, or :environment => ??? to set other environment settings without changing the locale.
-
timeout: a Numeric value for the number of seconds to wait on the child process before raising an Exception. This is calculated as the total amount of time that ShellOut waited on the child process without receiving any output (i.e., IO.select returned nil). Default is 60 seconds. Note: the stdlib Timeout library is not used.
Examples:
Invoke find(1) to search for .rb files:
find = Mixlib::ShellOut.new("find . -name '*.rb'")
find.run_command
# If all went well, the results are on +stdout+
puts find.stdout
# find(1) prints diagnostic info to STDERR:
puts "error messages" + find.stderr
# Raise an exception if it didn't exit with 0
find.error!
Run a command as the www user with no extra ENV settings from /tmp
cmd = Mixlib::ShellOut.new("apachectl", "start", :user => 'www', :env => nil, :cwd => '/tmp')
cmd.run_command # etc.
