Early release libtmux is released, and its APIs may still change between releases. This site's structure and URLs may change too.

NewSession

NewSession creates a test-owned tmux.Session and registers cleanup against its stable ID. An empty tmux.NewSessionRequest.Name receives a collision-checked temporary name. The request and referenced values are copied before tmux is called, and setup failures call testing.TB.Fatal. Cleanup belongs to t rather than ctx and continues to target the session if it is renamed.

tmux C API#

The C declarations in tmux that implement these commands.

Each path starts at a function a command runs, which is degree 1. The degree counts steps from there along the path, and each step is a call or a reference: degree 2 is reached from that function, degree 3 from the next, and so on.
