IPC::Cmd allows you to run commands platform independently, interactively if desired, but have them still work. The "can_run" function can tell you if a certain binary is installed and if so where, whereas the "run" function can actually execute any ...

"IPC::Cmd::Cached" uses "IPC::Cmd" to run arbitrary shell commands, but caches their results and finds them later. It uses a "Cache::FileCache" object to store the output of commands it has successfully executed persistently on disk. Results are stor...

IPC::PrettyPipe::Cmd objects are containers for the individual commands in a pipeline created by IPC::PrettyPipe. A command may have one or more arguments, some of which are options consisting of a name and an optional value. Options traditionally ha...

Refactored IPC::Cmd with a consistent OO API Would have used MooseX::Daemonize but using Moo not Moose so robbed some code from there instead...

Archive::Tar::Wrapper::IPC::Cmd is a fork of Michael Schilli's Archive::Tar::Wrapper Removed: IPC::Run, IO::Pty Added: IPC::Cmd...

This module comes from the nth time I've had to implement a select loop and wanted appropriate sudo/su privilege magic, environment variables that are set in the child, working directories set etc. It aims to provide a reasonable interface for settin...

IPC::ShellCmd::SSH->new(Host => *$host*, [*$opt* => *$val*, ...]) The only external method for this is the constructor. This sets up the various arguments that are going to be used to generate the command-line. Other methods on this are used by IPC::...

IPC::ShellCmd::Sudo->new([*$opt* => *$val*, ...]) The only external method for this is the constructor. This sets up the various arguments that are going to be used to generate the command-line. Other methods on this are used by IPC::ShellCmd, but it...

IPC::ShellCmd::Generic->new(Prog => *$prog*, [*$opt* => *$val*, ...]) The only external method for this is the constructor. This sets up the various arguments that are going to be used to generate the command-line. Other methods on this are used by I...

Abstract base class for other IPC::ShellCmd command types....

IPC::Run allows you to run and interact with child processes using files, pipes, and pseudo-ttys. Both system()-style and scripted usages are supported and may be mixed. Likewise, functional and OO API styles are both supported and may be mixed. Vari...

This module allows you to run a subprocess and redirect stdin, stdout, and/or stderr to files and perl data structures. It aims to satisfy 99% of the need for using "system", "qx", and "open3" with a simple, extremely Perlish API. Speed, simplicity, ...

This module was written to provide a secure and highly flexible way to execute external programs with an intuitive syntax. In addition, more info is returned with each string of executions, such as the list of PIDs and $? of the last external pipe pr...

The open2() function runs the given $cmd and connects $chld_out for reading and $chld_in for writing. It's what you think should work when you try $pid = open(HANDLE, "|cmd args|"); The write filehandle will have autoflush turned on. If $chld_out is ...

Extremely similar to open2(), open3() spawns the given $cmd and connects CHLD_OUT for reading from the child, CHLD_IN for writing to the child, and CHLD_ERR for errors. If CHLD_ERR is false, or the same file descriptor as CHLD_OUT, then STDOUT and ST...
