Pipers

A simple Rust library that allows you to pipe commands into each other.

Installation

In your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
pipers = "1.0.0"

How to use

It's quite simple really!

let out = Pipe::new("ls /")      // Put in your first command
              .then("grep usr")  // Choose the command you want to pipe into
              .then("head -c 1") // Keep chaining the pipes
              .finally()         // Turn the Pipe into a Result<Child>
              .expect("Commands did not pipe")
              .wait_with_output()
              .expect("failed to wait on child");

assert_eq!("u", &String::from_utf8(out.stdout).unwrap());
