defmodule ExCmd do @moduledoc """ ExCmd is an Elixir library to run and communicate with external programs with back-pressure. """ @doc """ Runs the given command with arguments and return an Enumerable to read command output. First parameter must be a list containing command with arguments. example: `["cat", "file.txt"]`. ### Options * `input` - Input can be either an `Enumerable` or a function which accepts `Collectable`. 1. input as Enumerable: ```elixir # List ExCmd.stream!(~w(bc -q), input: ["1+1\n", "2*2\n"]) |> Enum.to_list() # Stream ExCmd.stream!(~w(cat), input: File.stream!("log.txt", [], 65536)) |> Enum.to_list() ``` 2. input as collectable: If the input in a function with arity 1, ex_cmd will call that function with a `Collectable` as the argument. The function must *push* input to this collectable. Return value of the function is ignored. ```elixir ExCmd.stream!(~w(cat), input: fn sink -> Enum.into(1..100, sink, &to_string/1) end) |> Enum.to_list() ``` By defaults no input will be given to the command * `exit_timeout` - Duration to wait for external program to exit after completion before raising an error. Defaults to `:infinity` * `chunk_size` - Size of each iodata chunk emitted by Enumerable stream. When set to `nil` the output is unbuffered and chunk size will be variable. Defaults to 65336 All other options are passed to `ExCmd.Process.start_link/2` ### Example ``` elixir ExCmd.stream!(~w(ffmpeg -i pipe:0 -f mp3 pipe:1), input: File.stream!("music_video.mkv", [], 65336)) |> Stream.into(File.stream!("music.mp3")) |> Stream.run() ``` """ def stream!(cmd_with_args, opts \\ []) do ExCmd.Stream.__build__(cmd_with_args, opts) end end
