pipeTo( command?: string, options?: { readonly toggle?: boolean }, ): Promise<void>

Description#

A pane keeps history-limit lines and a stream reader keeps a bounded buffer, so output larger than either is gone before anything asks for it. The command runs for as long as the pipe is open, which is how a long build is captured whole. Pass no command to stop one.

Examples#

await pane.pipeTo("cat >> /tmp/build.log");
Parameters

tmux command#

The tmux commands behind pipeTo.

tmux C API#

The C declarations in tmux that implement these commands.
