What's Changed
Improvement of session variables
Now all types (existing and new ones) allows an injection of value of type vars.Variables to allow tracking and use of variables during a gexe session. The following shows an example of process being launched with variables:
variables := vars.New().SetVar("proc", "echo")
exec.RunProcWithVars(`$proc "Hello World!"`, variables)In the majority of cases, you will start the API chain from the gexe package which has a default instance of vars.Variables ready to use as shown below:
gexe.SetVar("proc", "echo")
gexe.Run(`$proc "Hello World!")Extending the fs package
The fs package has been extended to introduce types and methods to work with OS directory paths. In addition to working with files, the new fs.Path allows the followings:
- Query path information
- Creation of directory at a specified path point
- Removal of resources at specified path
Improvements to package http
In this release, package http has been updated to use an API similar to that of fs (for file reading/writing). Using the new API makes it easy to retrieve resources from an HTTP server and output it in different types including string, bytes, io.Reader, etc. The same changes has been done to write data to a remote web server.
Example:
gexe.FileWrite("/tmp/eapv2.txt").String(gexe.GetUrl(`https://remote/file`).String())PR list
