Struct elevated_command::Command

pub struct Command { /* private fields */ }

Wrap of std::process::command and escalate privileges while executing

Implementations

impl Command

pub fn is_elevated() -> bool

pub fn output(&self) -> Result<Output>

impl Command

Command initialization shares the same logic across all the platforms

pub fn new(cmd: StdCommand) -> Self

Constructs a new Command from a std::process::Command instance, it would read the following configuration from the instance while executing:

• The instance’s path to the program
• The instance’s arguments
• The instance’s environment variables
• The instance’s working directory

Examples

use elevated_command::Command;
use std::process::Command as StdCommand;

fn main() {
    let mut cmd = StdCommand::new("path to the application");

    cmd.arg("some arg");
    cmd.env("some key", "some value");

    let elevated_cmd = Command::new(cmd);
}

pub fn into_inner(self) -> StdCommand

Consumes the Take, returning the wrapped std::process::Command

Examples

use elevated_command::Command;
use std::process::Command as StdCommand;

fn main() {
    let mut cmd = StdCommand::new("path to the application");
    let elevated_cmd = Command::new(cmd);
    let cmd = elevated_cmd.into_inner();
}

pub fn get_ref(&self) -> &StdCommand

Gets a mutable reference to the underlying std::process::Command

Examples

use elevated_command::Command;
use std::process::Command as StdCommand;

fn main() {
    let mut cmd = StdCommand::new("path to the application");
    let elevated_cmd = Command::new(cmd);
    let cmd = elevated_cmd.get_ref();
}

pub fn get_mut(&mut self) -> &mut StdCommand

Gets a reference to the underlying std::process::Command

Examples

use elevated_command::Command;
use std::process::Command as StdCommand;

fn main() {
    let mut cmd = StdCommand::new("path to the application");
    let elevated_cmd = Command::new(cmd);
    let cmd = elevated_cmd.get_mut();
}

pub fn icon(&mut self, icon: Vec<u8>) -> &mut Self

Set the icon for the pop-up graphical OS dialog

This method is only applicable on MacOS

Examples

use elevated_command::Command;
use std::process::Command as StdCommand;

fn main() {
    let mut cmd = StdCommand::new("path to the application");
    let elevated_cmd = Command::new(cmd);
    elevated_cmd.icon(include_bytes!("path to the icon").to_vec());
}

pub fn name(&mut self, name: String) -> &mut Self

Set the name for the pop-up graphical OS dialog

This method is only applicable on MacOS

Examples

use elevated_command::Command;
use std::process::Command as StdCommand;

fn main() {
    let mut cmd = StdCommand::new("path to the application");
    let elevated_cmd = Command::new(cmd);
    elevated_cmd.name("some name".to_string());
}

Trait Implementations

impl From<Command> for Command

fn from(cmd: StdCommand) -> Self

Converts from a std::process::Command

It is similiar with the construct method
