capture(stream) { || ... } click to toggle source

Captures the given stream and returns it:

stream = capture(:stdout) { puts 'notice' }
stream # => "notice\n"

stream = capture(:stderr) { warn 'error' }
stream # => "error\n"

even for subprocesses:

stream = capture(:stdout) { system('echo notice') }
stream # => "notice\n"

stream = capture(:stderr) { system('echo error 1>&2') }
stream # => "error\n"
# File lib/fedux_org_stdlib/core_ext/kernel/reporting.rb, line 85
def capture(stream)
  stream = stream.to_s
  captured_stream = Tempfile.new(stream)
  stream_io = eval("$#{stream}")
  origin_stream = stream_io.dup
  stream_io.reopen(captured_stream)

  yield

  stream_io.rewind
  return captured_stream.read
ensure
  captured_stream.close
  captured_stream.unlink
  stream_io.reopen(origin_stream)
end
Also aliased as: silence
enable_warnings() { || ... } click to toggle source
