#ruby(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

def ruby(*args, &block)
  options = (Hash === args.last) ? args.pop : {}
  if args.length > 1
    sh(*([RUBY] + args + [options]), &block)
  else
    sh("#{RUBY} #{args.first}", options, &block)
  end
end

#safe_ln(*args) ⇒ Object

Attempt to do a normal file link, but fall back to a copy if the link

fails.

def safe_ln(*args)
  if ! LN_SUPPORTED[0]
    cp(*args)
  else
    begin
      ln(*args)
    rescue StandardError, NotImplementedError
      LN_SUPPORTED[0] = false
      cp(*args)
    end
  end
end

#sh(*cmd, &block) ⇒ Object

Run the system command cmd. If multiple arguments are given the command is run directly (without the shell, same semantics as Kernel::exec and Kernel::system).

It is recommended you use the multiple argument form over interpolating user input for both usability and security reasons. With the multiple argument form you can easily process files with spaces or other shell reserved characters in them. With the multiple argument form your rake tasks are not vulnerable to users providing an argument like ; rm # -rf /.

If a block is given, upon command completion the block is called with an OK flag (true on a zero exit status) and a Process::Status object. Without a block a RuntimeError is raised when the command exits non-zero.

Examples:

sh 'ls -ltr'

sh 'ls', 'file with spaces'

# check exit status after command runs
sh %{grep pattern file} do |ok, res|
  if ! ok
    puts "pattern not found (status = #{res.exitstatus})"
  end
end

def sh(*cmd, &block)
  options = (Hash === cmd.last) ? cmd.pop : {}
  shell_runner = block_given? ? block : create_shell_runner(cmd)
  set_verbose_option(options)
  options[:noop] ||= Rake::FileUtilsExt.nowrite_flag
  Rake.rake_check_options options, :noop, :verbose
  Rake.rake_output_message cmd.join(" ") if options[:verbose]

  unless options[:noop]
    res = rake_system(*cmd)
    status = $?
    status = Rake::PseudoStatus.new(1) if !res && status.nil?
    shell_runner.call(res, status)
  end
end

#split_all(path) ⇒ Object

Split a file path into individual directory names.

Example:

split_all("a/b/c") =>  ['a', 'b', 'c']

  return [head, tail] if head == '/'
  return split_all(head) + [tail]
