golang exec.Command读取标准输入

Question

I have a go program that should invoke a ruby script.

I have a runCommand function:

func runCommand(cmdName string, arg ...string) {
    cmd := exec.Command(cmdName, arg...)
    cmd.Stdout = os.Stdout
    cmd.Stderr = os.Stderr
    cmd.Stdin = os.Stdin
    err = cmd.Run()
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf("Failed to start Ruby. %s
", err.Error())
        os.Exit(1)
    }
}

I invoke it like this:

runCommand("ruby", "-e", "require 'foo'")

It works for most cases, except if there is a gets or any similar operation in the child process that needs to pause for an input.

I have tried setting cmd.Stdin = os.Stdin, but it does not wait for input.

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

The following program seems do what you ask for (my runCommand is almost identical to yours. I just changed the = to := for the err line.) Are you doing something differently?

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"
    "os/exec"
)

func main() {
    runCommand("ruby", "-e", `puts "Running"; $in = gets; puts "You said #{$in}"`)
}

func runCommand(cmdName string, arg ...string) {
    cmd := exec.Command(cmdName, arg...)
    cmd.Stdout = os.Stdout
    cmd.Stderr = os.Stderr
    cmd.Stdin = os.Stdin
    err := cmd.Run()
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf("Failed to start Ruby. %s
", err.Error())
        os.Exit(1)
    }
}
