ptyprocess

A library provides an interface for a unix PTY/TTY.

It aims to work on all major Unix variants.

The library was developed as a backend for a https://github.com/zhiburt/expectrl. If you're interested in a high level operations may you'd better take a look at zhiburt/expectrl.

Usage

```rust use ptyprocess::PtyProcess; use std::process::Command; use std::io::{BufRead, Write, BufReader};

fn main() { // spawn a cat process let mut process = PtyProcess::spawn(Command::new("cat")).expect("failed to spawn a process");

// create a communication stream
let mut stream = process.get_raw_handle().expect("failed to create a stream");

// send a message to process
writeln!(stream, "Hello cat").expect("failed to write to a stream");

// read a line from the stream
let mut reader = BufReader::new(stream);
let mut buf = String::new();
reader.read_line(&mut buf).expect("failed to read a process output");

println!("line={}", buf);

// stop the process
assert!(process.exit(true).expect("failed to stop the process"))

} ```
