popen(*command) click to toggle source

This calls IO.popen where it accepts an array for a command (Ruby 1.9+) and implements an IO.popen-like behavior where it does not accept an array for a command.

# File lib/rubygems/util.rb, line 48
def self.popen *command
  IO.popen command, &:read
rescue TypeError # ruby 1.8 only supports string command
  r, w = IO.pipe

  pid = fork do
    STDIN.close
    STDOUT.reopen w

    exec(*command)
  end

  w.close

  begin
    return r.read
  ensure
    Process.wait pid
  end
end

silent_system(*command) click to toggle source

Invokes system, but silences all output.

# File lib/rubygems/util.rb, line 74
def self.silent_system *command
  opt = {:out => NULL_DEVICE, :err => [:child, :out]}
  if Hash === command.last
    opt.update(command.last)
    cmds = command[0...-1]
  else
    cmds = command.dup
  end
  return system(*(cmds << opt))
rescue TypeError
  require 'thread'

  @silent_mutex ||= Mutex.new

  null_device = NULL_DEVICE

  @silent_mutex.synchronize do
    begin
      stdout = STDOUT.dup
      stderr = STDERR.dup

      STDOUT.reopen null_device, 'w'
      STDERR.reopen null_device, 'w'

      return system(*command)
    ensure
      STDOUT.reopen stdout
      STDERR.reopen stderr
      stdout.close
      stderr.close
    end
  end
end

traverse_parents(directory) { |here| ... } click to toggle source

Enumerates the parents of directory.

# File lib/rubygems/util.rb, line 111
def self.traverse_parents directory
  return enum_for __method__, directory unless block_given?

  here = File.expand_path directory
  start = here

  Dir.chdir start

  begin
    loop do
      yield here

      Dir.chdir '..'

      return if Dir.pwd == here # toplevel

      here = Dir.pwd
    end
  ensure
    Dir.chdir start
  end
end
