Recursively copies files from src
to dest
.
Arguments src
and dest
should be interpretable as paths.
If src
is the path to a file, copies src
to dest
:
FileUtils.touch('src0.txt') File.exist?('dest0.txt') # => false FileUtils.copy_entry('src0.txt', 'dest0.txt') File.file?('dest0.txt') # => true
If src
is a directory, recursively copies src
to dest
:
tree('src1') # => src1 # |-- dir0 # | |-- src0.txt # | `-- src1.txt # `-- dir1 # |-- src2.txt # `-- src3.txt FileUtils.copy_entry('src1', 'dest1') tree('dest1') # => dest1 # |-- dir0 # | |-- src0.txt # | `-- src1.txt # `-- dir1 # |-- src2.txt # `-- src3.txt
The recursive copying preserves file types for regular files, directories, and symbolic links; other file types (FIFO streams, device files, etc.) are not supported.
Keyword arguments:
dereference_root: true
- if src
is a symbolic link, follows the link.
preserve: true
- preserves file times.
remove_destination: true
- removes dest
before copying files.
Related: methods for copying.

Returns the language-dependent source file name for configuration checks.
Returns whether or not the given entry point func
can be found within lib
. If func
is nil
, the main()
entry point is used by default. If found, it adds the library to list of libraries to be used when linking your extension.
If headers
are provided, it will include those header files as the header files it looks in when searching for func
.
The real name of the library to be linked can be altered by --with-FOOlib
configuration option.
Returns whether or not the entry point func
can be found within the library lib
in one of the paths
specified, where paths
is an array of strings. If func
is nil
, then the main()
function is used as the entry point.
If lib
is found, then the path it was found on is added to the list of library paths searched and linked against.
Returns whether or not the variable var
can be found in the common header files, or within any headers
that you provide. If found, a macro is passed as a preprocessor constant to the compiler using the variable name, in uppercase, prepended with HAVE_
.
To check variables in an additional library, you need to check that library first using have_library()
.
For example, if have_var('foo')
returned true, then the HAVE_FOO
preprocessor macro would be passed to the compiler.
Returns whether or not the given header
file can be found on your system. If found, a macro is passed as a preprocessor constant to the compiler using the header file name, in uppercase, prepended with HAVE_
.
For example, if have_header('foo.h')
returned true, then the HAVE_FOO_H
preprocessor macro would be passed to the compiler.
Instructs mkmf to search for the given header
in any of the paths
provided, and returns whether or not it was found in those paths.
If the header is found then the path it was found on is added to the list of included directories that are sent to the compiler (via the -I
switch).
Tests for the presence of a --with-
config or --without-
config option. Returns true
if the with option is given, false
if the without option is given, and the default value otherwise.
This can be useful for adding custom definitions, such as debug information.
Example:
if with_config("debug") $defs.push("-DOSSL_DEBUG") unless $defs.include? "-DOSSL_DEBUG" end
Tests for the presence of an --enable-
config or --disable-
config option. Returns true
if the enable option is given, false
if the disable option is given, and the default value otherwise.
This can be useful for adding custom definitions, such as debug information.
Example:
if enable_config("debug") $defs.push("-DOSSL_DEBUG") unless $defs.include? "-DOSSL_DEBUG" end
Generates a header file consisting of the various macro definitions generated by other methods such as have_func
and have_header. These are then wrapped in a custom #ifndef
based on the header
file name, which defaults to “extconf.h”.
For example:
# extconf.rb require 'mkmf' have_func('realpath') have_header('sys/utime.h') create_header create_makefile('foo')
The above script would generate the following extconf.h file:
#ifndef EXTCONF_H #define EXTCONF_H #define HAVE_REALPATH 1 #define HAVE_SYS_UTIME_H 1 #endif
Given that the create_header
method generates a file based on definitions set earlier in your extconf.rb file, you will probably want to make this one of the last methods you call in your script.
Sets a target
name that the user can then use to configure various “with” options with on the command line by using that name. For example, if the target is set to “foo”, then the user could use the --with-foo-dir=prefix
, --with-foo-include=dir
and --with-foo-lib=dir
command line options to tell where to search for header/library files.
You may pass along additional parameters to specify default values. If one is given it is taken as default prefix
, and if two are given they are taken as “include” and “lib” defaults in that order.
In any case, the return value will be an array of determined “include” and “lib” directories, either of which can be nil if no corresponding command line option is given when no default value is specified.
Note that dir_config
only adds to the list of places to search for libraries and include files. It does not link the libraries into your application.
Returns compile/link information about an installed library in a tuple of [cflags, ldflags, libs]
, by using the command found first in the following commands:
If --with-{pkg}-config={command}
is given via command line option: {command} {options}
{pkg}-config {options}
pkg-config {options} {pkg}
Where options
is the option name without dashes, for instance "cflags"
for the --cflags
flag.
The values obtained are appended to $INCFLAGS
, $CFLAGS
, $LDFLAGS
and $libs
.
If one or more options
argument is given, the config command is invoked with the options and a stripped output string is returned without modifying any of the global values mentioned above.
Registers the given klass
as the class to be instantiated when parsing a URI with the given scheme
:
URI.register_scheme('MS_SEARCH', URI::Generic) # => URI::Generic URI.scheme_list['MS_SEARCH'] # => URI::Generic
Note that after calling String#upcase
on scheme
, it must be a valid constant name.
Basically a wrapper for Process.spawn
that:
Creates a child process for each of the given cmds
by calling Process.spawn
.
Does not wait for child processes to exit.
With no block given, returns an array of the wait threads for all of the child processes.
Example:
wait_threads = Open3.pipeline_start('ls', 'grep R') # => [#<Process::Waiter:0x000055e8de9d2bb0 run>, #<Process::Waiter:0x000055e8de9d2890 run>] wait_threads.each do |wait_thread| wait_thread.join end
Output:

With a block given, calls the block with an array of the wait processes:
Open3.pipeline_start('ls', 'grep R') do |wait_threads| wait_threads.each do |wait_thread| wait_thread.join end end
Output:
Rakefile README.md
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.

Returns a parse result whose value is an array of tokens that closely resembles the return value of Ripper::lex
. The main difference is that the ‘:on_sp` token is not emitted.
For supported options, see Prism::parse
.
This lexes with the Ripper
lex. It drops any space events but otherwise returns the same tokens. Raises SyntaxError
if the syntax in source is invalid.
SyntaxSuggest.handle_error
[Public]
Takes a ‘SyntaxError` exception, uses the error message to locate the file. Then the file will be analyzed to find the location of the syntax error and emit that location to stderr.
Example:
begin require 'bad_file' rescue => e SyntaxSuggest.handle_error(e) end
By default it will re-raise the exception unless ‘re_raise: false`. The message output location can be configured using the `io: $stderr` input.
If a valid filename cannot be determined, the original exception will be re-raised (even with ‘re_raise: false`).
Returns a clock time as determined by POSIX function clock_gettime():
Process.clock_gettime(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID) # => 198.650379677
Argument clock_id
should be a symbol or a constant that specifies the clock whose time is to be returned; see below.
Optional argument unit
should be a symbol that specifies the unit to be used in the returned clock time; see below.
Argument clock_id
Argument clock_id
specifies the clock whose time is to be returned; it may be a constant such as Process::CLOCK_REALTIME
, or a symbol shorthand such as :CLOCK_REALTIME
.

Note that SUS stands for Single Unix Specification. SUS contains POSIX and clock_gettime
is defined in the POSIX part. SUS defines :CLOCK_REALTIME
as mandatory but :CLOCK_MONOTONIC
, :CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
, and :CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID
are optional.
Certain emulations are used when the given clock_id
is not supported directly:
Emulations for :CLOCK_REALTIME
:
:GETTIMEOFDAY_BASED_CLOCK_REALTIME
: Use gettimeofday() defined by SUS (deprecated in SUSv4). The resolution is 1 microsecond.
:TIME_BASED_CLOCK_REALTIME
: Use time() defined by ISO C. The resolution is 1 second.
Emulations for :CLOCK_MONOTONIC
:
:MACH_ABSOLUTE_TIME_BASED_CLOCK_MONOTONIC
: Use mach_absolute_time(), available on Darwin. The resolution is CPU dependent.
:TIMES_BASED_CLOCK_MONOTONIC
: Use the result value of times() defined by POSIX, thus:
Upon successful completion, times() shall return the elapsed real time, in clock ticks, since an arbitrary point in the past (for example, system start-up time).
For example, GNU/Linux returns a value based on jiffies and it is monotonic. However, 4.4BSD uses gettimeofday() and it is not monotonic. (FreeBSD uses :CLOCK_MONOTONIC
instead, though.)
The resolution is the clock tick. “getconf CLK_TCK” command shows the clock ticks per second. (The clock ticks-per-second is defined by HZ macro in older systems.) If it is 100 and clock_t is 32 bits integer type, the resolution is 10 millisecond and cannot represent over 497 days.
Emulations for :CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
:
:GETRUSAGE_BASED_CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
: Use getrusage() defined by SUS. getrusage() is used with RUSAGE_SELF to obtain the time only for the calling process (excluding the time for child processes). The result is addition of user time (ru_utime) and system time (ru_stime). The resolution is 1 microsecond.
:TIMES_BASED_CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
: Use times() defined by POSIX. The result is addition of user time (tms_utime) and system time (tms_stime). tms_cutime and tms_cstime are ignored to exclude the time for child processes. The resolution is the clock tick. “getconf CLK_TCK” command shows the clock ticks per second. (The clock ticks per second is defined by HZ macro in older systems.) If it is 100, the resolution is 10 millisecond.
:CLOCK_BASED_CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID
: Use clock() defined by ISO C. The resolution is 1/CLOCKS_PER_SEC
. CLOCKS_PER_SEC
is the C-level macro defined by time.h. SUS defines CLOCKS_PER_SEC
as 1000000; other systems may define it differently. If CLOCKS_PER_SEC
is 1000000 (as in SUS), the resolution is 1 microsecond. If CLOCKS_PER_SEC
is 1000000 and clock_t is a 32-bit integer type, it cannot represent over 72 minutes.
Argument unit
Optional argument unit
(default :float_second
) specifies the unit for the returned value.
:float_microsecond
: Number of microseconds as a float.
:float_millisecond
: Number of milliseconds as a float.
:float_second
: Number of seconds as a float.
:microsecond
: Number of microseconds as an integer.
:millisecond
: Number of milliseconds as an integer.
:nanosecond
: Number of nanoseconds as an integer.
::second
: Number of seconds as an integer.
Examples:
Process.clock_gettime(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :float_microsecond) # => 203605054.825 Process.clock_gettime(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :float_millisecond) # => 203643.696848 Process.clock_gettime(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :float_second) # => 203.762181929 Process.clock_gettime(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :microsecond) # => 204123212 Process.clock_gettime(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :millisecond) # => 204298 Process.clock_gettime(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :nanosecond) # => 204602286036 Process.clock_gettime(:CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID, :second) # => 204
The underlying function, clock_gettime
(), returns a number of nanoseconds. Float
object (IEEE 754 double) is not enough to represent the return value for :CLOCK_REALTIME
. If the exact nanoseconds value is required, use :nanosecond
as the unit
.
The origin (time zero) of the returned value is system-dependent, and may be, for example, system start up time, process start up time, the Epoch, etc.
The origin in :CLOCK_REALTIME
is defined as the Epoch: 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
; some systems count leap seconds and others don’t, so the result may vary across systems.
