Run a Ruby interpreter with the given arguments.

Example:

ruby %{-pe '$_.upcase!' <README}

safe_ln (*args, **options)

# File lib/rake/file_utils.rb, line 110
def safe_ln(*args, **options)
  if LN_SUPPORTED[0]
    begin
      return options.empty? ? ln(*args) : ln(*args, **options)
    rescue StandardError, NotImplementedError
      LN_SUPPORTED[0] = false
    end
  end
  options.empty? ? cp(*args) : cp(*args, **options)
end

Attempt to do a normal file link, but fall back to a copy if the link fails.

sh (*cmd, &block)

Source

# File lib/rake/file_utils.rb, line 43
def sh(*cmd, &block)
  options = (Hash === cmd.last) ? cmd.pop : {}
  shell_runner = block_given? ? block : create_shell_runner(cmd)

  set_verbose_option(options)
  verbose = options.delete :verbose
  noop    = options.delete(:noop) || Rake::FileUtilsExt.nowrite_flag

  Rake.rake_output_message sh_show_command cmd if verbose

  unless noop
    res = (Hash === cmd.last) ? system(*cmd) : system(*cmd, options)
    status = $?
    status = Rake::PseudoStatus.new(1) if !res && status.nil?
    shell_runner.call(res, status)
  end
end

Run the system command cmd. If multiple arguments are given the command is run directly (without the shell, same semantics as Kernel::exec and Kernel::system).

It is recommended you use the multiple argument form over interpolating user input for both usability and security reasons. With the multiple argument form you can easily process files with spaces or other shell reserved characters in them. With the multiple argument form your rake tasks are not vulnerable to users providing an argument like ; rm # -rf /.

If a block is given, upon command completion the block is called with an OK flag (true on a zero exit status) and a Process::Status object. Without a block a RuntimeError is raised when the command exits non-zero.

Examples:

sh 'ls -ltr'

sh 'ls', 'file with spaces'

# check exit status after command runs
sh %{grep pattern file} do |ok, res|
  if !ok
    puts "pattern not found (status = #{res.exitstatus})"
  end
end

split_all (path)

Source

# File lib/rake/file_utils.rb, line 126
def split_all(path)
  head, tail = File.split(path)
  return [tail] if head == "." || tail == "/"
  return [head, tail] if head == "/"
  return split_all(head) + [tail]
end

Split a file path into individual directory names.

Example:

split_all("a/b/c") =>  ['a', 'b', 'c']
