data ProcessHandle__ Source #

A handle to a process, which can be used to wait for termination of the process using `waitForProcess`.

None of the process-creation functions in this library wait for termination: they all return a `ProcessHandle` which may be used to wait for the process later.

On Windows a second wait method can be used to block for event completion. This requires two handles. A process job handle and a events handle to monitor.

Fields cmdspec :: CmdSpec Executable & arguments, or shell command. If `cwd` is `Nothing`, relative paths are resolved with respect to the current working directory. If `cwd` is provided, it is implementation-dependent whether relative paths are resolved with respect to `cwd` or the current working directory, so absolute paths should be used to ensure portability. cwd :: Maybe FilePath Optional path to the working directory for the new process env :: Maybe [(String, String)] Optional environment (otherwise inherit from the current process) std_in :: StdStream How to determine stdin std_out :: StdStream How to determine stdout std_err :: StdStream How to determine stderr close_fds :: Bool Close all file descriptors except stdin, stdout and stderr in the new process (on Windows, only works if std_in, std_out, and std_err are all Inherit) create_group :: Bool Create a new process group delegate_ctlc :: Bool Delegate control-C handling. Use this for interactive console processes to let them handle control-C themselves (see below for details). On Windows this has no effect. Since: process-1.2.0.0 detach_console :: Bool Use the windows DETACHED_PROCESS flag when creating the process; does nothing on other platforms. Since: process-1.3.0.0 create_new_console :: Bool Use the windows CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE flag when creating the process; does nothing on other platforms. Default: `False` Since: process-1.3.0.0 new_session :: Bool Use posix setsid to start the new process in a new session; does nothing on other platforms. Since: process-1.3.0.0 child_group :: Maybe GroupID Use posix setgid to set child process's group id; does nothing on other platforms. Default: `Nothing` Since: process-1.4.0.0 child_user :: Maybe UserID Use posix setuid to set child process's user id; does nothing on other platforms. Default: `Nothing` Since: process-1.4.0.0 use_process_jobs :: Bool On Windows systems this flag indicates that we should wait for the entire process tree to finish before unblocking. On POSIX systems this flag is ignored. Default: `False` Since: process-1.5.0.0

data CmdSpec Source #

Constructors

ShellCommand String | A command line to execute using the shell
RawCommand FilePath [String] | The name of an executable with a list of arguments The `FilePath` argument names the executable, and is interpreted according to the platform's standard policy for searching for executables. Specifically: on Unix systems the execvp(3) semantics is used, where if the executable filename does not contain a slash (`/`) then the `PATH` environment variable is searched for the executable. on Windows systems the Win32 `CreateProcess` semantics is used. Briefly: if the filename does not contain a path, then the directory containing the parent executable is searched, followed by the current directory, then some standard locations, and finally the current `PATH`. An `.exe` extension is added if the filename does not already have an extension. For full details see the documentation for the Windows `SearchPath` API.

data StdStream Source #

Constructors

Inherit | Inherit Handle from parent
UseHandle Handle | Use the supplied Handle
CreatePipe | Create a new pipe. The returned `Handle` will use the default encoding and newline translation mode (just like `Handle`s created by `openFile`).
NoStream | Close the stream's file descriptor without passing a Handle. On POSIX systems this may lead to strange behavior in the child process because attempting to read or write after the file has been closed throws an error. This should only be used with child processes that don't use the file descriptor at all. If you wish to ignore the child process's output you should either create a pipe and drain it manually or pass a `Handle` that writes to `/dev/null`.

data ProcRetHandles Source #

contains the handles returned by a call to createProcess_Internal

Constructors

Fields hStdInput :: Maybe Handle hStdOutput :: Maybe Handle hStdError :: Maybe Handle procHandle :: ProcessHandle

createProcess_ Source #

Arguments

:: String | function name (for error messages)
-> CreateProcess |
-> IO (Maybe Handle, Maybe Handle, Maybe Handle, ProcessHandle) |

This function is almost identical to `createProcess`. The only differences are:

- `Handle`s provided via `UseHandle` are not closed automatically.
- This function takes an extra `String` argument to be used in creating error messages.
- `use_process_jobs` can be set in CreateProcess since 1.5.0.0 in order to create an I/O completion port to monitor a process tree's progress on Windows.

The function also returns two new handles: * an I/O Completion Port handle on which events will be signaled. * a Job handle which can be used to kill all running processes.

On POSIX platforms these two new handles will always be Nothing

This function has been available from the System.Process.Internals module for some time, and is part of the System.Process module since version 1.2.1.0.

Since: process-1.2.1.0

runGenProcess_ Source #

Arguments

:: String | function name (for error messages)
-> CreateProcess |
-> Maybe CLong | handler for SIGINT
-> Maybe CLong | handler for SIGQUIT
-> IO (Maybe Handle, Maybe Handle, Maybe Handle, ProcessHandle) |

Deprecated: Please do not use this anymore, use the ordinary `createProcess`. If you need the SIGINT handling, use delegate_ctlc = True (runGenProcess_ is now just an imperfectly emulated stub that probably duplicates or overrides your own signal handling).

fdToHandle :: FD -> IO Handle Source #

Turn an existing file descriptor into a Handle. This is used by various external libraries to make Handles.

Makes a binary Handle. This is for historical reasons; it should probably be a text Handle with the default encoding and newline translation instead.

translate :: String -> String Source #

createPipe :: IO (Handle, Handle) Source #

Create a pipe for interprocess communication and return a `(readEnd, writeEnd)` `Handle` pair.

Since: process-1.2.1.0

createPipeFd :: IO (FD, FD) Source #

Create a pipe for interprocess communication and return a `(readEnd, writeEnd)` `FD` pair.

Since: process-1.4.2.0

interruptProcessGroupOf Source #

Arguments

:: ProcessHandle | A process in the process group
-> IO () |

Sends an interrupt signal to the process group of the given process.

On Unix systems, it sends the group the SIGINT signal.

On Windows systems, it generates a CTRL_BREAK_EVENT and will only work for processes created using `createProcess` and setting the `create_group` flag
