rez.shells#

Pluggable API for creating subshells using different programs, such as bash.

rez.shells.get_shell_types()#

Returns the available shell types: bash, tcsh etc.

Returns: List of str: Shells.

rez.shells.get_shell_class(shell=None)#

Get the plugin class associated with the given or current shell.

Returns:

Plugin class for shell.

Return type:

class

rez.shells.create_shell(shell=None, **kwargs)#

Returns a Shell of the given or current type.

Returns:

Instance of given shell.

Return type:

Shell

class rez.shells.Shell#

Class representing a shell, such as bash or tcsh.

classmethod name()#

Plugin name.

classmethod executable_name()#

Name of executable to create shell instance.

classmethod executable_filepath()#

Get full filepath to executable, or raise if not found.

classmethod is_available()#

Determine if the shell is available to instantiate.

Returns:

True if the shell can be created.

Return type:

bool

classmethod file_extension()#

Get the file extension associated with the shell.

Returns:

Shell file extension.

Return type:

str

classmethod startup_capabilities(rcfile=False, norc=False, stdin=False, command=False)#

Given a set of options related to shell startup, return the actual options that will be applied. @returns 4-tuple representing applied value of each option.

__init__()#
get_output(style=<OutputStyle.file: ('Code as it would appear in a script file.', )>)#

Returns any implementation specific data.

Parameters:

style (OutputStyle) – Style affecting output format.

Returns:

Depends on implementation, but usually a code string.

new_shell()#

Returns A new, reset shell of the same type.

classmethod find_executable(name, check_syspaths=False)#

Find an executable.

Parameters:
  • name (str) – Program name.

  • check_syspaths (bool) – If True, check the standard system paths as well, if program was not found on current $PATH.

Returns:

Full filepath of executable.

Return type:

str

spawn_shell(context_file, tmpdir, rcfile=None, norc=False, stdin=False, command=None, env=None, quiet=False, pre_command=None, add_rez=True, package_commands_sourced_first=None, **Popen_args)#

Spawn a possibly interactive subshell. :param context: _file File that must be sourced in the new shell, this

configures the Rez environment.

Parameters:
  • tmpdir – Tempfiles, if needed, should be created within this path.

  • rcfile – Custom startup script.

  • norc – Don’t run startup scripts. Overrides rcfile.

  • stdin – If True, read commands from stdin in a non-interactive shell. If a different non-False value, such as subprocess.PIPE, the same occurs, but stdin is also passed to the resulting subprocess.Popen object.

  • command – If not None, execute this command in a non-interactive shell. If an empty string, don’t run a command, but don’t open an interactive shell either.

  • env – Environ dict to execute the shell within; uses the current environment if None.

  • quiet – If True, don’t show the configuration summary, and suppress any stdout from startup scripts.

  • pre_command – Command to inject before the shell command itself. This is for internal use.

  • add_rez – If True, assume this shell is being used with rez, and do things such as set the prompt etc.

  • package_commands_sourced_first – If True, source the context file before sourcing startup scripts (such as .bashrc). If False, source the context file AFTER. If None, use the configured setting.

  • popen_args – args to pass to the shell process object constructor.

Returns:

A subprocess.Popen object representing the shell process.

classmethod convert_tokens(value)#

Converts any token like ${VAR} and $VAR to shell specific form. Uses the ENV_VAR_REGEX to correctly parse tokens.

Parameters:

value – str to convert

Returns:

str with shell specific variables

classmethod get_key_token(key)#

Encodes the environment variable into the shell specific form. Shells might implement multiple forms, but the most common/safest should be returned here.

Parameters:

key – Variable name to encode

Returns:

str of encoded token form

classmethod get_all_key_tokens(key)#

Encodes the environment variable into the shell specific forms. Shells might implement multiple forms, but the most common/safest should be always returned at index 0.

Parameters:

key – Variable name to encode

Returns:

list of str with encoded token forms

classmethod line_terminator()#
Returns:

default line terminator

Return type:

str

classmethod join(command)#

Note: Default to unix sh/bash- friendly behaviour.

Parameters:

command – A sequence of program arguments to be joined into a single string that can be executed in the current shell.

Returns:

A string object representing the command.

class rez.shells.UnixShell#

A base class for common *nix shells, such as bash and tcsh.

classmethod get_startup_sequence(rcfile, norc, stdin, command)#

Return a dict containing: - ‘stdin’: resulting stdin setting. - ‘command’: resulting command setting. - ‘do_rcfile’: True if a file should be sourced directly. - ‘envvar’: Env-var that points at a file to source at startup. Can be None. - ‘files’: Existing files that will be sourced (non-user-expanded), in source

order. This may also incorporate rcfile, and file pointed at via envvar. Can be empty.

  • ‘bind_files’: Files to inject Rez binding into, even if that file doesn’t

    already exist.

  • ‘source_bind_files’: Whether to source bind files, if they exist.

spawn_shell(context_file, tmpdir, rcfile=None, norc=False, stdin=False, command=None, env=None, quiet=False, pre_command=None, add_rez=True, package_commands_sourced_first=None, **Popen_args)#
