Dear all,
I am happy to tell you I have a first prototype of the tool for
executing OS processes:
https://github.com/marianopeck/OSSubprocess
As I said many times, the main idea was to be as much as possible
FFI-based, only for executing OS commands and, from my point of view,
a better end-user API. Also, as for the first step, I had to focus on
Linux/OSX.
I would like to thank Pharo Consortium for the sponsor of this
development effort. Here is the first milestone!
There are many things on my to-do but I think the code is ready for
some usage, testing, code review and feedback!
All classes and all methods have comments and I have quite some unit
tests. All tests are green in my OSX and a CentOS box.
*Important: you CANNOT have OSProcess installed in the same image as
OSSubprocess. This is because I am reusing his SIGCHLD handler and for
the time being both cannot coexist. *
Keep in mind that the tool may be unstable and that MAY mean a VM
crash. So use with care, mostly the first time. If all tests passes,
then there are much less chances of something going bad.
Important disclaimer: my tool (OSSubproccess from now onward) is
HIGHLY influenced by a subset of the OSProcess project. There are
parts which I even simply copied and adapted them (OSSPipe,
OSSAttachableStream, OSSUnixProcessExitStatus). Other parts, I took
them as inspiration (the idea of ThisOSProcess representing the VM
process, the child watcher, and many others). In addition, I AM STILL
USING (maybe as a first step?) some of the OSProcess PLUGIN (not
OSProcess image side), such as the SIGCHLD handler or the creation of
pipes.
In github url you have all the documentation of the project, included
how to install it and use it.
*Finally, if you test it in a OS different than OSX and CentOS please
share with me the results (about the tests).* Tomorrow the
ConfigurationOf should also appear in the Catalog of Pharo 5.0.
Any feedback is appreciated.
Best,
