Я наткнулся на этот пост, пытаясь сделать то же самое, и так и не нашел хорошего решения, см. Код ниже, чтобы узнать, как я решил свои проблемы. Эта реализация позволяет пользователям получить доступ к stdin, stdout, stderr и получить код состояния возврата. Для простых вызовов канала вызывается простая оболочка.
require("posix")
--
-- Simple popen3() implementation
--
function popen3(path, ...)
local r1, w1 = posix.pipe()
local r2, w2 = posix.pipe()
local r3, w3 = posix.pipe()
assert((w1 ~= nil or r2 ~= nil or r3 ~= nil), "pipe() failed")
local pid, err = posix.fork()
assert(pid ~= nil, "fork() failed")
if pid == 0 then
posix.close(w1)
posix.close(r2)
posix.dup2(r1, posix.fileno(io.stdin))
posix.dup2(w2, posix.fileno(io.stdout))
posix.dup2(w3, posix.fileno(io.stderr))
posix.close(r1)
posix.close(w2)
posix.close(w3)
local ret, err = posix.execp(path, unpack({...}))
assert(ret ~= nil, "execp() failed")
posix._exit(1)
return
end
posix.close(r1)
posix.close(w2)
posix.close(w3)
return pid, w1, r2, r3
end

local pid, w, r, e = popen3(cmd, unpack({...}))
assert(pid ~= nil, "filter() unable to popen3()")

-- Clean-up child (no zombies) and get return status
--
local wait_pid, wait_cause, wait_status = posix.wait(pid)
return wait_status, table.concat(stdout), table.concat(stderr)
end

-- Example usage
--
local my_in = io.stdin:read("*all")
--local my_cmd = "wc"
--local my_args = {"-l"}
local my_cmd = "spamc"
local my_args = {} -- no arguments
local my_status, my_out, my_err = pipe_simple(my_in, my_cmd, unpack(my_args))
-- Obviously not interleaved as they would have been if printed in realtime
io.stdout:write(my_out)
io.stderr:write(my_err)
os.exit(my_status)
