Top level install helper method. Allows you to install gems interactively:
% irb >> Gem.install "minitest" Fetching: minitest-5.14.0.gem (100%) => [#<Gem::Specification:0x1013b4528 @name="minitest", ...>]
Returns the currently set formatter. By default, it is set to DidYouMean::Formatter.
Updates the primary formatter used to format the suggestions.
Copies a file entry. See install(1).
Arguments src (a single path or an array of paths) and dest (a single path) should be interpretable as paths;
If the entry at dest does not exist, copies from src to dest:
File.read('src0.txt') # => "aaa\n" File.exist?('dest0.txt') # => false FileUtils.install('src0.txt', 'dest0.txt') File.read('dest0.txt') # => "aaa\n"
If dest is a file entry, copies from src to dest, overwriting:
File.read('src1.txt') # => "aaa\n" File.read('dest1.txt') # => "bbb\n" FileUtils.install('src1.txt', 'dest1.txt') File.read('dest1.txt') # => "aaa\n"
If dest is a directory entry, copies from src to dest/src, overwriting if necessary:
File.read('src2.txt') # => "aaa\n" File.read('dest2/src2.txt') # => "bbb\n" FileUtils.install('src2.txt', 'dest2') File.read('dest2/src2.txt') # => "aaa\n"
If src is an array of paths and dest points to a directory, copies each path path in src to dest/path:
File.file?('src3.txt') # => true File.file?('src3.dat') # => true FileUtils.mkdir('dest3') FileUtils.install(['src3.txt', 'src3.dat'], 'dest3') File.file?('dest3/src3.txt') # => true File.file?('dest3/src3.dat') # => true
Keyword arguments:
group: group - changes the group if not nil, using File.chown.
mode: permissions - changes the permissions. using File.chmod.
noop: true - does not copy entries; returns nil.
owner: owner - changes the owner if not nil, using File.chown.
preserve: true - preserve timestamps using File.utime.
verbose: true - prints an equivalent command:
FileUtils.install('src0.txt', 'dest0.txt', noop: true, verbose: true) FileUtils.install('src1.txt', 'dest1.txt', noop: true, verbose: true) FileUtils.install('src2.txt', 'dest2', noop: true, verbose: true)
Output:
install -c src0.txt dest0.txt install -c src1.txt dest1.txt install -c src2.txt dest2

Returns an array of the string names of FileUtils methods that accept one or more keyword arguments:
FileUtils.commands.sort.take(3) # => ["cd", "chdir", "chmod"]
Calls the associated block with the name of every file and directory listed as arguments, then recursively on their subdirectories, and so on.
Returns an enumerator if no block is given.
See the Find module documentation for an example.

Merges the given URI strings str per RFC 2396.
Each string in str is converted to an RFC3986 URI before being merged.
Examples:
URI.join("http://example.com/","main.rbx") # => #<URI::HTTP http://example.com/main.rbx> URI.join('http://example.com', 'foo') # => #<URI::HTTP http://example.com/foo> URI.join('http://example.com', '/foo', '/bar') # => #<URI::HTTP http://example.com/bar> URI.join('http://example.com', '/foo', 'bar') # => #<URI::HTTP http://example.com/bar> URI.join('http://example.com', '/foo/', 'bar') # => #<URI::HTTP http://example.com/foo/bar>
Basically a wrapper for Process.spawn that:
Creates a child process for each of the given cmds by calling Process.spawn.
Pipes the stdout from each child to the stdin of the next child, or, for the last child, to the caller’s stdout.
The method does not wait for child processes to exit, so the caller must do so.
With no block given, returns a 2-element array containing:
The stdout stream of the last child process.
An array of the wait threads for all of the child processes.
Example:
last_stdout, wait_threads = Open3.pipeline_r('ls', 'grep R') # => [#<IO:fd 5>, [#<Process::Waiter:0x000055e8de2f9898 dead>, #<Process::Waiter:0x000055e8de2f94b0 sleep>]] puts last_stdout.read wait_threads.each do |wait_thread| wait_thread.join end
Output:

With a block given, calls the block with the stdout stream of the last child process, and an array of the wait processes:
Open3.pipeline_r('ls', 'grep R') do |last_stdout, wait_threads| puts last_stdout.read wait_threads.each do |wait_thread| wait_thread.join end end
Output:

Like Process.spawn, this method has potential security vulnerabilities if called with untrusted input; see Command Injection.
If the first argument is a hash, it becomes leading argument env in each call to Process.spawn; see Execution Environment.
If the last argument is a hash, it becomes trailing argument options in each call to Process.spawn; see Execution Options.
Each remaining argument in cmds is one of:
A command_line: a string that begins with a shell reserved word or special built-in, or contains one or more metacharacters.
An exe_path: the string path to an executable to be called.
An array containing a command_line or an exe_path, along with zero or more string arguments for the command.

Builds a command line string from an argument list, array.
All elements are joined into a single string with fields separated by a space, where each element is escaped for the Bourne shell and stringified using to_s.
ary = ["There's", "a", "time", "and", "place", "for", "everything"] argv = Shellwords.join(ary) argv #=> "There\\'s a time and place for everything"
Array#shelljoin is a shortcut for this function.
ary = ["Don't", "rock", "the", "boat"] argv = ary.shelljoin argv #=> "Don\\'t rock the boat"
You can also mix non-string objects in the elements as allowed in Array#join.
output = `#{['ps', '-p', $$].shelljoin}`
