How to pipe stdout for os.Exec to file but also to terminal?
I've try this:
go func() {
scanner := bufio.NewScanner(stdout)
writer := bufio.NewWriter(logFile)
for scanner.Scan() {
log.Debugln(scanner.Text())
writer.WriteString(scanner.Text())
}
writer.Flush()
}()
But writer.WriteString(scanner.Text())
losts in file. How to got them back? Maybe there is some more elegant solution with pipes?
Create a io.MultiWriter with arguments os.Stdout and the file. Set Cmd.Stdout to the multiwriter. Run the command.
cmd := exec.Command(name, args...)
cmd.Stdout = io.MultiWriter(os.Stdout, file)
err := cmd.Run()
If you want to write line by line to log.Debugf and other files, then do the following:
go func() {
scanner := bufio.NewScanner(stdout)
writer := bufio.NewWriter(io.MultiWriter(os.Stdout, file))
for scanner.Scan() {
log.Debugln(scanner.Text())
writer.Write(scanner.Bytes())
writer.WriteByte('
') // add line separator
}
writer.Flush()
}()
This code assumes that the line separator in the input is .
