def run: ( ::Array[::String], ?input: ::String, ?timeout: ::Numeric, ?cancel: untyped ) -> ::LibTmux::CommandResult method libtmux [source] ¶

Description#

Behavior contract: Raw commands.

Examples#

Wake a blocked request from another thread with a cancellation token and read the delivery evidence on the Cancelled error. Use Ruby 3.3 or newer with Bundler, and tmux 3.3a or newer, on Unix with /bin/cat and /bin/sh available. In an empty directory, save this Gemfile:

source "https://rubygems.org"

gem "libtmux", "0.1.1"

Save this complete program as cancellation.rb. Its Server.start() block owns a private tmux server and stops it on exit, including after an error. View source

# frozen_string_literal: true

begin
  # docs:begin main
  require "libtmux"

  LibTmux::Server.start do |server|
    server.new_session(name: "work", command: ["/bin/cat"])
    cancellation = LibTmux::Cancellation.new
    waiting = Thread.new do
      server.run(["wait-for", "-S", "ready", ";", "wait-for", "held"], timeout: 5, cancel: cancellation)
    rescue LibTmux::Cancelled => error
      error
    end
    server.wait_for("ready", timeout: 5)
    cancellation.cancel
    failure = waiting.value
    puts "request: #{failure.class}"
    puts "delivery: #{failure.delivery}"
    cancellation.close
  end
  # docs:end main
rescue StandardError => error
  warn "#{error.class}: #{error.message}"
  exit 1
end

Install the gem and run the program. An operation or cleanup error makes it exit unsuccessfully:

$ bundle install && \
  bundle exec ruby cancellation.rb

Expected output:

request: LibTmux::Cancelled
delivery: possibly_sent

Parameters

arg1 (::Array[::String]) #
input (::String) #
timeout (::Numeric) #
cancel (untyped) #
