# LibTmux.render_format

- **Module:** LibTmux
- **Package:** LibTmux
- **Language:** Julia
- **Kind:** function
- **Source:** https://github.com/libtmux/libtmux-julia/blob/f3da513be1225d36d5854cd8db5972c01857578e/src/formats.jl#L166

```
render_format(
    server::LibTmux.Server,
    target,
    expression::LibTmux.RawFormat;
    max_output_bytes,
    kwargs...
)
```

## Methods

Explicitly evaluate a raw expression and return its `CommandResult`, retaining all stdout/stderr bytes and exit evidence. stdout includes tmux's final record newline; no text decoding or whitespace trimming occurs. Target semantics, deadline and best-effort identity checks follow `read_formats`.

```julia
render_format(server, target, expression::RawFormat; kwargs...)
```

## Parameters

- `server` (`LibTmux.Server`)
- `target` (`Any`)
- `expression` (`LibTmux.RawFormat`)
- `max_output_bytes` (`Int`)
  Default: `8 * 1024 ^ 2`.
- `kwargs`
