Functions

func Get

func Get() (io.Writer, error)

Get returns io.Writer to TTY or an error.

Writing directly to TTY can be useful when running your application as subprocess and the parent process does not pipe the subprocess stderr into end-user terminal.

This happens often with various AWS tools when using credential_process.

func GetWithFallback

func GetWithFallback() io.Writer

GetWithFallback returns either io.Writer to TTY or if it could not be accessed, process standard error stream (stderr) is returned.

Writing directly to TTY can be useful when running your application as subprocess and the parent process does not pipe the subprocess stderr into end-user terminal.

This happens often with various AWS tools when using credential_process.
