Add special handling in `mktemp` for when the directory that will
contain the temporary file is not found. This situation now produces
the message
mktemp: failed to create file via template 'XXX': No such file or directory
to match the behavior of GNU mktemp.
Update the usage message when too many template arguments are given on
the command line to match that of GNU mktemp:
mktemp: too many templates
Try 'mktemp --help' for more information.
This fixes the test case `too-many` in the GNU test suite file
`tests/misc/mktemp.pl`.
Change `mktemp` so that it respects the value of the `TMPDIR`
environment variable if no directory is otherwise specified in its
arguments. For example, before this commit
$ TMPDIR=. mktemp
/tmp/tmp.WDJ66MaS1T
After this commit,
$ TMPDIR=. mktemp
./tmp.h96VZBhv8P
This matches the behavior of GNU `mktemp`.
The previous encoding handling was unnecessarily complex. This commit removes the enum that specifies the handling and instead has two separate methods to collect the strings either with lossy conversion or by ignoring invalidly encoded strings.
Outside of tests, only `accept_any` was used, meaning that this unnecessarily complicated the code. The behaviour of `accept_any` is now the default (and only) option.
Make `mktemp` exit with an error if the `--suffix` option is the empty
string and the template argument does not end in an "X". Previously,
the program succeeded.
Before this commit,
$ mktemp --suffix= aXXXb
apBEb
After this commit,
$ mktemp --suffix= aXXXb
mktemp: with --suffix, template 'aXXXb' must end in X
Fix a bug in which `mktemp` would replace everything in the template
argument from the first 'X' to the last 'X' with random bytes, instead
of just replacing the last contiguous block of 'X's.
Before this commit,
$ mktemp XXX_XXX
2meCpfM
After this commit,
$ mktemp XXX_XXX
XXX_Rp5
This fixes test cases `suffix2f` and `suffix2d` in
`tests/misc/mktemp.pl` in the GNU coreutils test suite.
Simplify the logic of computing the file path parameters (the
directory, prefix, suffix, and number of random characters) for the
temporary file created by `mktemp`. This commits adds an `Options`
struct as a layer of indirection between the application logic and
`clap`, and a `Params` struct whose associated function is responsible
for determining the file path parameters from the `Options`. This is
an improvement because the previous code had some logic for
determining file path parameters in one place and some in another
place.
Include the suffix in the error message produced by `mktemp` when
there are too few Xs in the template. Before this commit,
$ mktemp --suffix=X aXX
mktemp: too few X's in template 'aXX'
After this commit,
$ mktemp --suffix=X aXX
mktemp: too few X's in template 'aXXX'
This matches the behavior of GNU `mktemp`.
Correct the error message when the template argument contains a path
separator in its suffix. Before this commit:
$ mktemp aXXX/b
mktemp: too few X's in template 'b'
After this commit:
$ mktemp aXXX/b
mktemp: invalid suffix '/b', contains directory separator
This error message is more appropriate and matches the behavior of GNU
mktemp.
Correct the error message produced by `mktemp` when `--tmpdir` is
given and the template is an absolute path:
$ mktemp --tmpdir=a /XXX
mktemp: invalid template, '/XXX'; with --tmpdir, it may not be absolute
Correct the error that arises from a path separator in the prefix
portion of a template argument provided to `mktemp`. Before this
commit, the error message was incorrect:
$ mktemp -t a/bXXX
mktemp: failed to create file via template 'a/bXXX': No such file or directory (os error 2) at path "/tmp/a/bege"
After this commit, the error message is correct:
$ mktemp -t a/bXXX
mktemp: invalid template, 'a/bXXX', contains directory separator
The code was failing to check for a path separator in the prefix
portion of the template.
Change the return type of the `parse_template()` helper function in
the `mktemp` program so that it returns `Result<..., MkTempError>`
instead of `UResult<...>`. This separates the lower level helper
function from the higher level `UResult` abstraction and will make it
easier to refactor this code in future commits.
Fix a bug in `mktemp` where it was not respecting the path given by
the positional argument. Previously, it would place the temporary file
whose name is induced by a given template in the `/tmp` directory,
like this:
$ mktemp XXX
/tmp/LJr
$ mktemp d/XXX
/tmp/d/IhS
After this commit, it respects the directory given in the template
argument:
$ mktemp XXX
LJr
$ mktemp d/XXX
d/IhS
Fixes#3440.
This should correct the usage strings in both the `--help` and user documentation. Previously, sometimes the name of the utils did not show up correctly.
