LibTmux::Workspace::ApplyResult#compensation

def compensation: () -> ( :not_requested | :nothing_owned | :completed | :failed )

Returns the value of attribute compensation.

Description#

Behavior contract: Workspace results.

Examples#

Apply a workspace whose panes cannot fit with compensate: true. The failed split is reported, the created session is removed, and the borrowed session stays. 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-workspace", "0.1.1"

Save this complete program as workspace_failure.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 "json"
require "libtmux"
require "libtmux/workspace"
LibTmux::Server.start do |server|
server.new_session(name: "borrowed", command: ["/bin/cat"])
crowded = LibTmux::Workspace.parse(
JSON.generate({session_name: "crowded", windows: [{window_name: "small", panes: Array.new(40) { {} }}]}),
format: :json, base_directory: __dir__
)
begin
crowded.plan.apply(server: server, compensate: true)
rescue LibTmux::Workspace::ApplyError => error
puts "failed action: #{error.result.failed_action}"
puts "created a session: #{error.result.created_refs.key?('session')}"
puts "compensation: #{error.result.compensation}"
end
puts "sessions: #{server.list_sessions.map { |session| session.snapshot.name }.join(', ')}"
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:

Terminal window
$ bundle install && \
bundle exec ruby workspace_failure.rb

Expected output:

failed action: split_pane
created a session: true
compensation: completed
sessions: borrowed
Esc
