import processInternal._
import ProcessBuilder._

/** Represents a sequence of one or more external processes that can be
  * executed. A `ProcessBuilder` can be a single external process, or a
  * combination of other `ProcessBuilder`. One can control where a
  * the output of an external process will go to, and where its input will come
  * from, or leave that decision to whoever starts it.
  *
  * One creates a `ProcessBuilder` through factories provided in
  * [[scala.sys.process.Process]]'s companion object, or implicit conversions
  * based on these factories made available in the package object
  * [[scala.sys.process]]. Here are some examples:
  * {{{
  * import scala.sys.process._
  *
  * // Executes "ls" and sends output to stdout
  * "ls".!
  *
  * // Execute "ls" and assign a `Stream[String]` of its output to "contents".
  * val contents = Process("ls").lineStream
  *
  * // Here we use a `Seq` to make the parameter whitespace-safe
  * def contentsOf(dir: String): String = Seq("ls", dir).!!
  * }}}
  *
  * The methods of `ProcessBuilder` are divided in three categories: the ones that
  * combine two `ProcessBuilder` to create a third, the ones that redirect input
  * or output of a `ProcessBuilder`, and the ones that execute
  * the external processes associated with it.
  *
  * ==Combining `ProcessBuilder`==
  *
  * Two existing `ProcessBuilder` can be combined in the following ways:
  *
  *   - They can be executed in parallel, with the output of the first being fed
  *     as input to the second, like Unix pipes. This is achieved with the `#|`
  *     method.
  *   - They can be executed in sequence, with the second starting as soon as
  *     the first ends. This is done by the `###` method.
  *   - The execution of the second one can be conditioned by the return code
  *     (exit status) of the first, either only when it's zero, or only when it's
  *     not zero. The methods `#&&` and `#||` accomplish these tasks.
  *
  * ==Redirecting Input/Output==
  *
  * Though control of input and output can be done when executing the process,
  * there's a few methods that create a new `ProcessBuilder` with a
  * pre-configured input or output. They are `#<`, `#>` and `#>>`, and may take
  * as input either another `ProcessBuilder` (like the pipe described above), or
  * something else such as a `java.io.File` or a `java.io.InputStream`.
  * For example:
  * {{{
  * new URL("http://databinder.net/dispatch/About") #> "grep JSON" #>> new File("About_JSON") !
  * }}}
  *
  * ==Starting Processes==
  *
  * To execute all external commands associated with a `ProcessBuilder`, one
  * may use one of four groups of methods. Each of these methods have various
  * overloads and variations to enable further control over the I/O. These
  * methods are:
  *
  *   - `run`: the most general method, it returns a
  *     [[scala.sys.process.Process]] immediately, and the external command
  *     executes concurrently.
  *   - `!`: blocks until all external commands exit, and returns the exit code
  *     of the last one in the chain of execution.
  *   - `!!`: blocks until all external commands exit, and returns a `String`
  *     with the output generated.
  *   - `lineStream`: returns immediately like `run`, and the output being generated
  *     is provided through a `Stream[String]`. Getting the next element of that
  *     `Stream` may block until it becomes available. This method will throw an
  *     exception if the return code is different than zero -- if this is not
  *     desired, use the `lineStream_!` method.
  *
  * ==Handling Input and Output==
  *
  * If not specified, the input of the external commands executed with `run` or
  * `!` will not be tied to anything, and the output will be redirected to the
  * stdout and stderr of the Scala process. For the methods `!!` and `lines`, no
  * input will be provided, and the output will be directed according to the
  * semantics of these methods.
  *
  * Some methods will cause stdin to be used as input. Output can be controlled
  * with a [[scala.sys.process.ProcessLogger]] -- `!!` and `lines` will only
  * redirect error output when passed a `ProcessLogger`. If one desires full
  * control over input and output, then a [[scala.sys.process.ProcessIO]] can be
  * used with `run`.
  *
  * For example, we could silence the error output from `lines_!` like this:
  * {{{
  * val etcFiles = "find /etc" lines_! ProcessLogger(line => ())
  * }}}
  *
  * ==Extended Example==
  *
  * Let's examine in detail one example of usage:
  * {{{
  * import scala.sys.process._
  * "find src -name *.scala -exec grep null {} ;"  #|  "xargs test -z"  #&&  "echo null-free"  #||  "echo null detected"  !
  * }}}
  * Note that every `String` is implicitly converted into a `ProcessBuilder`
  * through the implicits imported from [[scala.sys.process]]. These `ProcessBuilder` are then
  * combined in three different ways.
  *
  *   1. `#|` pipes the output of the first command into the input of the second command. It
  *      mirrors a shell pipe (`|`).
  *   1. `#&&` conditionally executes the second command if the previous one finished with
  *      exit value 0. It mirrors shell's `&&`.
  *   1. `#||` conditionally executes the third command if the exit value of the previous
  *      command is different than zero. It mirrors shell's `||`.
  *
  * Finally, `!` at the end executes the commands, and returns the exit value.
  * Whatever is printed will be sent to the Scala process standard output. If
  * we wanted to capture it, we could run that with `!!` instead.
  *
  * Note: though it is not shown above, the equivalent of a shell's `;` would be
  * `###`. The reason for this name is that `;` is a reserved token in Scala.
  *
  * Note: the `lines` method, though deprecated, may conflict with the `StringLike`
  * method of the same name.  To avoid this, one may wish to call the builders in
  * `Process` instead of importing `scala.sys.process._`.  The example above would be
  * {{{
  * import scala.sys.process.Process
  * Process("find src -name *.scala -exec grep null {} ;") #| Process("xargs test -z") #&& Process("echo null-free") #|| Process("echo null detected") !
  * }}}
