pty extension version 0.3 by A.ito
|
|
|
|
1. Introduction
|
|
|
|
This extension module adds ruby a functionality to execute an
|
|
arbitrary command through pseudo tty (pty).
|
|
|
|
2. Install
|
|
|
|
Follow the instruction below.
|
|
|
|
(1) Execute
|
|
|
|
ruby extconf.rb
|
|
|
|
then Makefile is generated.
|
|
|
|
(3) Do make; make install.
|
|
|
|
3. What you can do
|
|
|
|
This extension module defines a module named PTY, which contains
|
|
following module fungtions:
|
|
|
|
getpty(command)
|
|
spawn(command)
|
|
|
|
This function reserves a pty, executes command over the pty
|
|
and returns an array. The return value is an array with three
|
|
elements. The first element in the array is for reading and the
|
|
second for writing. The third element is the process ID of the
|
|
child process. If this function is called with an iterator block,
|
|
the array is passed to the block as block parameters, and the
|
|
function itself returns nil.
|
|
|
|
While the process spawned by this function is active, SIGCHLD
|
|
is captured to handle the change of the child process. When the
|
|
child process is suspended or finished, an exception is raised.
|
|
As all SIGCHLD signal is captured and processed by PTY module,
|
|
you can't use other function or method which spawns subprosesses
|
|
(including signal() and IO.popen()) while the PTY subprocesses
|
|
are active. Otherwise, unexpected exception will occur. To avoid
|
|
this problem, see protect_signal() below.
|
|
|
|
If this function is called with an iterator block, SIGCHLD signal
|
|
is captured only within the block. Therefore, it is risky to use
|
|
File objects for PTY subprocess outside the iterator block.
|
|
|
|
|
|
protect_signal
|
|
|
|
This function takes an iterator block. Within the iterator block,
|
|
no exception is raised even if any subprocess is terminated.
|
|
This function is used to enable functions like system() or IO.popen()
|
|
while PTY subprocess is active. For example,
|
|
|
|
PTY.spawn("command_foo") do |r,w|
|
|
...
|
|
...
|
|
PTY.protect_signal do
|
|
system "some other commands"
|
|
end
|
|
...
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
disables to send exception when "some other commands" is
|
|
terminated.
|
|
|
|
reset_signal
|
|
|
|
Disables to handle SIGCHLD while PTY subprocess is active.
