The following module was proposed for inclusion in the Module List:
modid: IPC::Run3::Shell
DSLIP: Rdpha
description: easy execution of system commands
userid: HAUKEX (Hauke D)
chapterid: 5 (Networking_Devices_IPC)
communities:
https://github.com/haukex/IPC-Run3-Shell
similar:
Shell IPC::Run3 IPC::Run
rationale:
(from the POD) This module's goal is to provide a relatively
transparent interface to system commands from regular-looking Perl
functions. It is inspired by and is similar to the module Shell, but
with several important differences and added features: - functions
are only exported at the request of the user (no autoloading in the
user's namespace) - system commands and their arguments are never
sent through the shell (so you don't have to worry about escaping
shell metacharacters) - failures of the system commands are
(optional) warnings, which can be made fatal (in the spirit of
autodie or bash's set -e) - advanced capturing of STDIN, STDOUT and
STDERR
(other notes) I'm aware there are quite a few modules out there to
execute system commands, my last count was 19 other such modules
with various features, levels of support and interfaces. However, as
far as I could tell, none of them offers a "Shell"-like API, which I
really like. I also like IPC::Run3 very much because it is simple,
yet it supports capturing STDERR, avoiding the shell, and it works
on all tested OSes. Hence, this module was born.
