spawnBackground method
Spawns a process by invoking executable
with arguments
.
This is similar to io.Process.start, but stdout
and stderr
is
forwarded/routed between the process and host, similar to how a shell
script works.
Returns a future that completes with a handle to the spawned process.
Implementation
Future<io.Process> spawnBackground(
String executable,
Iterable<String> arguments, {
String? workingDirectory,
Map<String, String>? environment,
bool includeParentEnvironment = true,
bool runInShell = false,
io.ProcessStartMode mode = io.ProcessStartMode.normal,
}) async {
final process = io.Process.start(
executable,
arguments.toList(),
workingDirectory: workingDirectory,
environment: environment,
includeParentEnvironment: includeParentEnvironment,
runInShell: runInShell,
mode: mode,
);
return _ForwardingSpawn(
await process,
const Stream.empty(),
_stdout,
_stderr,
);
}
