set-blocking
set blocking stdio
and stderr
ensuring that terminal output does not truncate.
Historical Context/Word of Warning
This was created as a shim to address the bug discussed in node #6456. This bug crops up on newer versions of Node.js (0.12+
), truncating terminal output.
You should be mindful of the side-effects caused by using set-blocking
:
if your module sets blocking to
true
, it will effect other modules consuming your library. In yargs we only callsetBlocking(true)
once we already know we are about to callprocess.exit(code)
.this patch will not apply to subprocesses spawned with
isTTY = true
, this is the defaultspawn()
behavior.
