Crate rdd

This is the rdd library, which provides a simple way to interact with the dd tool from Rust. The dd utility is commonly used for low-level copying and conversion of raw data. This library abstracts the dd command’s functionality, allowing you to configure and execute dd commands programmatically in Rust.

Features:

• Allows configuration of input/output files, block size, count, etc.
• Provides easy error handling and output capture for the dd command.
• Helps in performing low-level data copying tasks with flexibility in a Rust-based environment.

Example Usage:

use rdd::Dd;

// Define the paths for input and output files
let input = "./source_file.txt";  // Path to the source file
let output = "./destination_file.txt"; // Path for the destination file

// Create a Dd instance, set input, output, and block size, then run the command
let mut result = Dd::new("dd")
    .input(input)
    .output(output)
    .bs("4M")
    .spawn();  // Execute the dd command

// Handle the result of the dd command
match result {
    Ok(output) => println!("Command succeeded: {}", output),
    Err(e) => eprintln!("Error: {}", e),  // Print the error message if the command fails
}
