Abstract
IPC::Pipeline - Create a shell-like pipeline of many running commands
Description
This module provides a calling convention similar to that of IPC::Open3 for
performing inter-process I/O, but allowing this to be done using multiple,
consecutively piped processes as specified by the user. Three file handles
are returned: A file handle for writing to the first process in the
pipeline, a file handle for reading output from the last process in the
pipeline, and a file handle for reading errors from all children. Each
process ID is returned and can be monitored with facilities such as
waitpid().
Please consult the POD-formatted documentation for a full synopsis,
examples, and caveats.
Detailed Documentation
For further information, you may generate the IPC::Pipeline man page from
the included Plain Old Documentation, and read it, by performing the
following commands:
$ perl Makefile.PL
$ make manifypods
$ man blib/man3/IPC::Pipeline.3pm
This documentation is of course available via man(1) after installation in
the IPC::Pipeline(3pm) page.
