Function run_bridge_script

pub fn run_bridge_script(pkgbuild_path: &Path) -> Result<String, Error>

Runs the alpm-pkgbuild-bridge script, which exposes all relevant information of a PKGBUILD in a custom format.

Returns the output of that script as a String.

Examples

use std::{fs::File, io::Write};

use alpm_pkgbuild::bridge::run_bridge_script;
use tempfile::tempdir;

const TEST_FILE: &str = include_str!("../../tests/test_files/normal.pkgbuild");

// Create a temporary directory where we write the PKGBUILD to.
let temp_dir = tempdir()?;
let path = temp_dir.path().join("PKGBUILD");
let mut file = File::create(&path)?;
file.write_all(TEST_FILE.as_bytes());

// Call the bridge script on that path.
println!("{}", run_bridge_script(&path)?);

Errors

Returns an error if

• pkgbuild_path does not exist,
• pkgbuild_path does not have a file name,
• pkgbuild_path is not a file,
• or running the alpm-pkgbuild-bridge script fails.
