Readme for process-streaming-0.7.2.1
process-streaming
Exploring how to interact with system processes using a streaming library (pipes).
The basic goals:
-
Concurrent, streaming access to stdin, stdout and stderr.
-
Easy integration with regular consumers, parsers from pipes-parse and various folds.
-
Avoid launching exceptions: use Either or similar solution to signal non-IO related error conditions.
