Std.Process.drain
1 declaration
fn
drain: &Std.Process.Started -> Result[Str, Str]This is a callable function.
What it does
Everything a program writes, read until it stops writing.
The form to reach for when the output is wanted whole but the program is
long-running enough that starting it and waiting would hold its pipe until
it filled.
Read the signature
- The text after the name is the type checked by Pudu.
- Read arrows from left to right: inputs come first, and the final type is returned.
- & borrows a value for this call instead of moving or copying it.
- Names inside [ ] are type arguments, such as the item type held by a collection.
- Result makes success and recoverable failure part of the function's type.
