/** @defgroup System Calling The Operating System from YAP
@ingroup library
@{
YAP now provides a library of system utilities compatible with the
SICStus Prolog system library. This library extends and to some point
replaces the functionality of Operating System access routines. The
library includes Unix/Linux and Win32 `C` code. They
are available through the `use_module(library(system))` command.
@pred datime(datime(- _Year_, - _Month_, - _DayOfTheMonth_, - _Hour_, - _Minute_, - _Second_)
The datime/1 procedure returns the current date and time, with
information on _Year_, _Month_, _DayOfTheMonth_,
_Hour_, _Minute_, and _Second_. The _Hour_ is returned
on local time. This function uses the WIN32
`GetLocalTime` function or the Unix `localtime` function.
~~~~~
?- datime(X).
X = datime(2001,5,28,15,29,46) ?
~~~~~
*/
/** @pred environ(+ _E_,- _S_)
Given an environment variable _E_ this predicate unifies the second argument _S_ with its value.
*/
/** @pred system(+ _S_)
Passes command _S_ to the Bourne shell (on UNIX environments) or the
current command interpreter in WIN32 environments.
*/
/** @pred working_directory(- _CurDir_,? _NextDir_)
Fetch the current directory at _CurDir_. If _NextDir_ is bound
to an atom, make its value the current working directory.
*/
/** @pred delete_file(+ _File_)
The delete_file/1 procedure removes file _File_. If
_File_ is a directory, remove the directory <em>and all its subdirectories</em>.
~~~~~
?- delete_file(x).
~~~~~
*/
/** @pred delete_file(+ _File_,+ _Opts_)
The `delete_file/2` procedure removes file _File_ according to
options _Opts_. These options are `directory` if one should
remove directories, `recursive` if one should remove directories
recursively, and `ignore` if errors are not to be reported.
This example is equivalent to using the delete_file/1 predicate:
~~~~~
?- delete_file(x, [recursive]).
~~~~~
*/
/** @pred directory_files(+ _Dir_,+ _List_)
Given a directory _Dir_, directory_files/2 procedures a
listing of all files and directories in the directory:
~~~~~
?- directory_files('.',L), writeq(L).
['Makefile.~1~','sys.so','Makefile','sys.o',x,..,'.']
~~~~~
The predicates uses the `dirent` family of routines in Unix
environments, and `findfirst` in WIN32.
*/
/** @pred environ(? _EnvVar_,+ _EnvValue_)
Unify environment variable _EnvVar_ with its value _EnvValue_,
if there is one. This predicate is backtrackable in Unix systems, but
not currently in Win32 configurations.
~~~~~
?- environ('HOME',X).
X = 'C:\\cygwin\\home\\administrator' ?
~~~~~
*/
/** @pred exec(+ _Command_, _StandardStreams_,- _PID_)
Execute command _Command_ with its standard streams connected to
the list [_InputStream_, _OutputStream_, _ErrorStream_]. The
process that executes the command is returned as _PID_. The
command is executed by the default shell `bin/sh -c` in Unix.
The following example demonstrates the use of exec/3 to send a
command and process its output:
~~~~~
exec(ls,[std,pipe(S),null],P),repeat, get0(S,C), (C = -1, close(S) ! ; put(C)).
~~~~~
The streams may be one of standard stream, `std`, null stream,
`null`, or `pipe(S)`, where _S_ is a pipe stream. Note
that it is up to the user to close the pipe.
*/
/** @pred file_exists(+ _File_)
The atom _File_ corresponds to an existing file.
*/
/** @pred file_exists(+ _File_,+ _Permissions_)
The atom _File_ corresponds to an existing file with permissions
compatible with _Permissions_. YAP currently only accepts for
permissions to be described as a number. The actual meaning of this
number is Operating System dependent.
*/
/** @pred file_property(+ _File_,? _Property_)
The atom _File_ corresponds to an existing file, and _Property_
will be unified with a property of this file. The properties are of the
form `type( _Type_)`, which gives whether the file is a regular
file, a directory, a fifo file, or of unknown type;
`size( _Size_)`, with gives the size for a file, and
`mod_time( _Time_)`, which gives the last time a file was
modified according to some Operating System dependent
timestamp; `mode( _mode_)`, gives the permission flags for the
file, and `linkto( _FileName_)`, gives the file pointed to by a
symbolic link. Properties can be obtained through backtracking:
~~~~~
?- file_property('Makefile',P).
P = type(regular) ? ;
P = size(2375) ? ;
P = mod_time(990826911) ? ;
no
~~~~~
*/
/** @pred host_id(- _Id_)
Unify _Id_ with an identifier of the current host. YAP uses the
`hostid` function when available,
*/
/** @pred host_name(- _Name_)
Unify _Name_ with a name for the current host. YAP uses the
`hostname` function in Unix systems when available, and the
`GetComputerName` function in WIN32 systems.
*/
/** @pred mktemp( _Spec_,- _File_)
Direct interface to `mktemp`: given a _Spec_, that is a file
name with six _X_ to it, create a file name _File_. Use
tmpnam/1 instead.
*/
/** @pred mktime(+_Datime_, - _Seconds_)
The `mktime/2` procedure receives a term of the form _datime(+ _Year_,
+ _Month_, + _DayOfTheMonth_, + _Hour_, + _Minute_, + _Second_)_ and
returns the number of _Seconds_ elapsed since 00:00:00 on January 1,
1970, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The user provides information
on _Year_, _Month_, _DayOfTheMonth_, _Hour_, _Minute_, and
_Second_. The _Hour_ is given on local time. This function uses the
WIN32 `GetLocalTime` function or the Unix `mktime` function.
~~~~~
?- mktime(datime(2001,5,28,15,29,46),X).
X = 991081786 ? ;
~~~~~
*/
/** @pred pid(- _Id_)
Unify _Id_ with the process identifier for the current
process. An interface to the <tt>getpid</tt> function.
*/
/** @pred popen(+ _Command_, + _TYPE_, - _Stream_)
Interface to the <tt>popen</tt> function. It opens a process by creating a
pipe, forking and invoking _Command_ on the current shell. Since a
pipe is by definition unidirectional the _Type_ argument may be
`read` or `write`, not both. The stream should be closed
using close/1, there is no need for a special `pclose`
command.
The following example demonstrates the use of popen/3 to process
the output of a command, as exec/3 would do:
~~~~~{.prolog}
?- popen(ls,read,X),repeat, get0(X,C), (C = -1, ! ; put(C)).
X = 'C:\\cygwin\\home\\administrator' ?
~~~~~
The WIN32 implementation of popen/3 relies on exec/3.
*/
/** @pred rename_file(+ _OldFile_,+ _NewFile_)
Create file _OldFile_ to _NewFile_. This predicate uses the
`C` built-in function `rename`.
*/
/** @pred shell
Start a new shell and leave YAP in background until the shell
completes. YAP uses the shell given by the environment variable
`SHELL`. In WIN32 environment YAP will use `COMSPEC` if
`SHELL` is undefined.
*/
/** @pred shell(+ _Command_)
Execute command _Command_ under a new shell. YAP will be in
background until the command completes. In Unix environments YAP uses
the shell given by the environment variable `SHELL` with the option
`" -c "`. In WIN32 environment YAP will use `COMSPEC` if
`SHELL` is undefined, in this case with the option `" /c "`.
*/
/** @pred shell(+ _Command_,- _Status_)
Execute command _Command_ under a new shell and unify _Status_
with the exit for the command. YAP will be in background until the
command completes. In Unix environments YAP uses the shell given by the
environment variable `SHELL` with the option `" -c "`. In
WIN32 environment YAP will use `COMSPEC` if `SHELL` is
undefined, in this case with the option `" /c "`.
*/
/** @pred sleep(+ _Time_)
Block the current thread for _Time_ seconds. When YAP is compiled
without multi-threading support, this predicate blocks the YAP process.
The number of seconds must be a positive number, and it may an integer
or a float. The Unix implementation uses `usleep` if the number of
seconds is below one, and `sleep` if it is over a second. The WIN32
implementation uses `Sleep` for both cases.
*/
/** @pred system
Start a new default shell and leave YAP in background until the shell
completes. YAP uses `/bin/sh` in Unix systems and `COMSPEC` in
WIN32.
*/
/** @pred system(+ _Command_,- _Res_)
Interface to `system`: execute command _Command_ and unify
_Res_ with the result.
*/
/** @pred tmp_file(+_Base_, - _File_)
Create a name for a temporary file. _Base_ is an user provided
identifier for the category of file. The _TmpName_ is guaranteed to
be unique. If the system halts, it will automatically remove all created
temporary files.
*/
/** @pred tmpnam(- _File_)
Interface with _tmpnam_: obtain a new, unique file name _File_.
*/
/** @pred working_directory(- _Old_,+ _New_)
Unify _Old_ with an absolute path to the current working directory
and change working directory to _New_. Use the pattern
`working_directory(CWD, CWD)` to get the current directory. See
also `absolute_file_name/2` and chdir/1.
