Наконец я остановился на следующем решении.Все еще далеко от оптимального, но это работает.Даже в таких ситуациях, как описанный gbacon .
use Carp qw( confess );
use IPC::Run;
use Scalar::Util;
use Time::HiRes;
# Invokes the given program with the given input and argv, and returns stdout/stderr.
#
# The first argument provided is the input for the program. It is an arrayref
# containing one or more of the following:
#
# * A scalar is simply passed to the program as stdin
#
# * An arrayref in the form [ "prompt", "input" ] causes the function to wait
# until the program prints "prompt", then spools "input" to its stdin
#
# * An arrayref in the form [ 0.3, "input" ] waits 0.3 seconds, then spools
# "input" to the program's stdin
sub capture_with_input {
my ($program, $inputs, @argv) = @_;
my ($stdout, $stderr);
my $stdin = '';
my $process = IPC::Run::start( [$program, @argv], \$stdin, \$stdout, \$stderr );
foreach my $input (@$inputs) {
if (ref($input) eq '') {
$stdin .= $input;
}
elsif (ref($input) eq 'ARRAY') {
(scalar @$input == 2) or
confess "Input to capture_with_input must be of the form ['prompt', 'input'] or [timeout, 'input']!";
my ($prompt_or_timeout, $text) = @$input;
if (Scalar::Util::looks_like_number($prompt_or_timeout)) {
my $start_time = [ Time::HiRes::gettimeofday ];
$process->pump_nb() while (Time::HiRes::tv_interval($start_time) < $prompt_or_timeout);
}
else {
$prompt_or_timeout = quotemeta $prompt_or_timeout;
$process->pump until $stdout =~ m/$prompt_or_timeout/gc;
}
$stdin .= $text;
}
else {
confess "Unknown input type passed to capture_with_input!";
}
}
$process->finish();
return ($stdout, $stderr);
}
my $input = [
"First Line\n",
["Perl read:", "Second Line\n"],
[0.5, "Third Line\n"],
];
print "Executing process...\n";
my ($stdout, $stderr) = capture_with_input('./read.pl', $input);
print "done.\n";
print "STDOUT:\n", $stdout;
print "STDERR:\n", $stderr;
Пример использования (со слегка измененным read.pl для проверки случая gbacon):
$ time ./spool_read4.pl
Executing process...
done.
STDOUT:
Perl read: First Line
And here's what head -n1 gets: Second Line
Perl read again: Third Line
STDERR:
./spool_read4.pl 0.54s user 0.02s system 102% cpu 0.547 total
Тем не менее, я открыт для лучших решений ...
