clj-commons-exec

Apache Commons Exec wrapper for Clojure

Usage

(require '[clj-commons-exec :as exec])

(exec/sh ["echo" "hello"])   ; A promise is returned immediately.
;=> #<core$promise$reify__5727@12fa6824: :pending>

@(exec/sh ["echo" "hello"])  ; To get a result, deref it.
;=> {:exit 0, :out "hello\n", :err nil}

(exec/sh ["ls" "-l"] {:dir "/"}) ; Second argument is option map.

options

  • :dir (String or java.io.File) override the process dir.
  • :out (OutputStream) is used as the sub-process's stdout.
  • :err (OutputStream) is used as the sub-process's stderror.
  • :in (String or InputStream) is fed to the sub-process's stdin.
  • :flush-input? (boolean) flush or not input stream.
  • :handle-quoting? (boolean) Add the argument with/without handling quoting.
  • :watchdog (int or instance of ExecuteWatchdog) set watchdog timer in ms.
  • :env (Map) The environment for the new process. If null, the environment of the current process is used.
  • :add-env (Map) The added environment for the new process.
  • :shutdown (boolean) destroys sub-processes when the VM exits.
  • :as-success (int) is regarded as sucess exit value.
  • :as-successes (sequence) are regarded as sucess exit values.
  • :result-handler-fn (function) A function, which will be called with promise, in, out, err stream and option map, returns an instance which implements org.apache.commons.exec.ExecuteResultHandler. You have to close in, out, and err stream when sub-process is finished.

If you want to have multiple processes piped to each other, you can use sh-pipe. Syntax is like sh :

(exec/sh-pipe ["cat"] ["wc"] {:in "hello world"})
;=> (#<Promise@11ba3c1f: {:exit 0, :out nil, :err nil}>
;    #<Promise@59c12050: {:exit 0, :out "       0       2      11\n", :err nil}>)

When piping commands using sh-pipe, the first command that does not exit successfully will additionally have the :exception key (and corresponding Exception) delivered in its result map:

(exec/sh-pipe ["cat" "abc.txt"] ["wc"])
;=> (#<Promise@563da1dc:
;     {:exit 1, :out nil,
;      :err "cat: abc.txt: No such file or directory\n",
;      :exception #<ExecuteException org.apache.commons.exec.ExecuteException:
;                   Process exited with an error: 1 (Exit value: 1)>}>
;    #<Promise@7bff88c3:
;     {:exit 0, :out "       0       0       0\n", :err nil}>)

Note: Commands that are waiting for piped input downstream of any such error might receive an empty stream. Most likely, they will finish execution, but their output will be logically incorrect.
