Functions

func CommandContext

func CommandContext(ctx context.Context, name string, args ...string) *exec.Cmd

CommandContext returns a command whose cancellation owns the process tree on the platforms where WB supports process-tree cancellation. Callers configure its directory, environment, and stdio exactly as they would an exec.Command.

func CommandContextInteractive

func CommandContextInteractive(ctx context.Context, interactive bool, name string, args ...string) *exec.Cmd

CommandContextInteractive preserves the caller's foreground terminal process group when interactive is true. Noninteractive commands retain tree-owned cancellation.
