Module `OpamSystem`

Low-level untyped system operations

exception Process_error of OpamProcess.result

Exception raised when subprocess fails

exception Command_not_found of string

val process_error : OpamProcess.result -> 'a

raise Process_error

val raise_on_process_error : OpamProcess.result -> unit

raise Process_error if the process didn't return 0

exception Internal_error of string

Exception raised when a computation in the current process fails.

val internal_error : ('a, unit, string, 'b) format4 -> 'a

Raise Internal_error

val with_tmp_dir : (string -> 'a) -> 'a

with_tmp_dir fn executes fn in a tempory directory

val with_tmp_dir_job : (string -> 'a OpamProcess.job) -> 'a OpamProcess.job

Runs a job with a temp dir that is cleaned up afterwards

val verbose_for_base_commands : unit -> bool

Returns true if the default verbose level for base commands (cp, mv, etc.) is reached

val copy : string -> string -> unit

copy src dst copies src to dst. Remove dst before the copy if it is a link.

val mv : string -> string -> unit

val install : ?exec:bool -> string -> string -> unit

install ?exec src dst copies file src as file dst using install. If exec, make the resulting file executable (otherwise, look at the permissions of the original file to decide).

val is_exec : string -> bool

Checks if a file is an executable (regular file with execution permission)

val link : string -> string -> unit

link src dst links src to dst. Remove dst if it is a file, not a directory.

val real_path : string -> string

real_path p returns the real path associated to p: .. are expanded and relative paths become absolute.

val string_of_channel : in_channel -> string

Return the contents of a channel.

exception File_not_found of string

Raised when a file or directory can't be accessed (doesn't exist, bad permissions, etc.)

val read : string -> string

read filename returns the contents of filename

val write : string -> string -> unit

write filename contents write contents to filename

val remove : string -> unit

remove filename removes filename. Works whether filename is a file or a directory

val remove_file : string -> unit

remove_file filename removes filename. Works only for normal files (or also at least for symlinks)

val remove_dir : string -> unit

remove_dir filename removes filename. Works only for directory (not for symlinks or other files).

val chdir : string -> unit

Change the current working directory

val in_dir : string -> (unit -> 'a) -> 'a

in_dir dir fn evaluates fn in the directory dir

val files_with_links : string -> string list

files_with_links dir returns the files in the directory dir. Links simulating directory are ignored, others links are returned.

val rec_files : string -> string list

rec_files dir returns the list of all files in dir, recursively. Links behaving like directory are crossed.

val files : string -> string list

Return the list of files in the current directory.

val rec_dirs : string -> string list

rec_dirs dir return the list list of all directories recursively (going through symbolink links).

val dirs : string -> string list

Return the list of directories in the current directory.

val dir_is_empty : string -> bool

val directories_with_links : string -> string list

directories_with_links dir returns the directories in the directory dir. Links pointing to directory are also returned.

val make_command : 
  ?verbose:bool ->
  ?env:string array ->
  ?name:string ->
  ?text:string ->
  ?metadata:(string * string) list ->
  ?allow_stdin:bool ->
  ?dir:string ->
  ?check_existence:bool ->
  string ->
  string list ->
  OpamProcess.command

Make a comman suitable for OpamProcess.Job. if verbose, is set, command and output will be displayed (at command end for the latter, if concurrent commands are running). name is used for naming log files. text is what is displayed in the status line for this command. May raise Command_not_found, unless check_existence is set to false (in which case you can end up with a process error instead)

OLD COMMAND API, DEPRECATED

type command = string list

a command is a list of words

val command_exists : ?env:string array -> ?dir:string -> string -> bool

Test whether a command exists in the environment.

val command : 
  ?verbose:bool ->
  ?env:string array ->
  ?name:string ->
  ?metadata:(string * string) list ->
  ?allow_stdin:bool ->
  command ->
  unit

command cmd executes the command cmd in the correct OPAM environment.

val commands : 
  ?verbose:bool ->
  ?env:string array ->
  ?name:string ->
  ?metadata:(string * string) list ->
  ?keep_going:bool ->
  command list ->
  unit

commands cmds executes the commands cmds in the correct OPAM environment. It stops whenever one command fails unless keep_going is set to true. In this case, the first error is re-raised at the end.

val read_command_output : 
  ?verbose:bool ->
  ?env:string array ->
  ?metadata:(string * string) list ->
  ?allow_stdin:bool ->
  command ->
  string list

read_command_output cmd executes the command cmd in the correct OPAM environment and return the lines from stdout if the command exists normally. If the command does not exist or if the command exited with a non-empty exit-code, throw an error.

END

val is_tar_archive : string -> bool

Test whether the file is an archive, by looking as its extension

val extract : string -> string -> unit

extract filename dirname extracts the archive filename into dirname. dirname should not exists and filename should contain only one top-level directory.

val extract_in : string -> string -> unit

extract_in filename dirname extracts the archive filename into dirname. dirname should already exists.

val mkdir : string -> unit

Create a directory. Do not fail if the directory already exist.

val cpu_count : unit -> int

Get the number of active processors on the system

File locking function

type lock

val flock : ?read:bool -> string -> lock

Acquires a lock on the given file. Retries 5 times max. By default, this is a write lock.

val funlock : lock -> unit

Releases an acquired lock

Misc

val patch : string -> unit

Apply a patch file in the current directory.

val temp_file : ?dir:string -> string -> string

Create a tempory file in ~/.opam/logs/<name>XXX

val print_stats : unit -> unit

Print stats

val register_printer : unit -> unit

Registers an exception printer that adds some OPAM version info, and details on process and Unix errors

val init : unit -> unit

Initialises signal handlers, catch_break and some exception printers. The lib may not perform properly without this if Sys.catch_break isn't set and SIGPIPE isn't handled (with a no-op)
