Feature request: fixture file as input to pipe (`with_stdin`) about assert_cmd

[epage]

Thats a really great idea!

For stdin, its just a matter of coming up with the name.

For stdout, stderr, the challenge is we won't know if its intended to be binary or str (this matters for the new feature I'm writing). I wonder if its best to l leave it as stdout(predicte::path::eq_file(path))

[epage]

Also, something else for us to consider with stdin is we might want to support chunking in case someone is testing a really large file.

Thanks @epage, I didn't notice the usage of stdout(predicte::path::eq_file(path)) actually. I think it's OK for me to use predicates.

In terms of the name, how about with_fixture_stdin?

I've gone ahead and removed stdout/stderr from this to make our narrowed focus clear.

imo whether you use a file or in-memory string, both would be considered fixtures, right?

So one option is with_stdin_file? Another options is with_stdin().from_bytes("Hello World") / with_stdin().from_path("./hello.txt").

Yes, you are right.

I think with_stdin().from_bytes("Hello World") / with_stdin().from_path("./hello.txt") are more readable.

Publishing v0.6.0 with this fix. Sorry for the delay.

I guess I cannot use .stdout(predicate::path::eq_file(Path::new("filename")) right now?

I'm a little confused about FileContentPredicate, BinaryFilePredicate, and StrFilePredicate. Anyway, can you give me an example of how to compare content in a fixture file with the stdout (in binary or in str). Thank you so much!

[epage]

Yeah, I realized that on closer inspection and opened assert-rs/predicates-rs#56

My plan has been to finish assert-rs/predicates-rs#7 first because I've started it and it is more invasive but it is larger and controversial, so it might take longer to get in.

[mssun]

I see. Thank you @epage. Can you ping me if it's ready to use?

[epage]

Just to check, is that another blocking issue for you?

I see. Thank you @epage. Can you ping me if it's ready to use?

Alternatively, you could subscribe to the issue?

[mssun]

Yes, my expectation is to pipe in fixture files and compare stdout with fixture files. I have subscribed these issues you mentioned. Thanks.
