A go package to capture stdout and stderr generated by your code
You can download the package using
go get github.com/amalfra/recorder/v3Next, import the package
import (
"github.com/amalfra/recorder/v3"
)You can record output from both Stdout as well as Stderr. The recorded output will be available as string. The following two structs are available for your use:
- recorder.Stdout - Can be used for recording from Stdout
- recorder.Stderr - Can be used for recording from Stderr
There are four struct methods which can be used to control recording process:
- Start - To start recording
- Stop - To stop recording
- GetOutput - To return recorded output as string
- ClearOutput - To clear the recorded output
To record follow below steps:
- first create the instance of struct as follows:
rec := new(recorder.Stdout)or if to record from Stderr do
rec := new(recorder.Stderr)- Now call the
Startmethod as follows:
rec.Start()From now onwards all Stdout or Stderr output will be captured.
- Call
Stopmethod as follows when you want to stop recording process:
rec.Stop()- Now get the recorded output by calling the
GetOutputmethod. It will return the recorded output string
out := rec.GetOutput()Questions, problems or suggestions? Please post them on the issue tracker.
