p5-IPC-System-Options

Perl system(), readpipe()/qx, IPC::Run's run(), start() (with more options)

IPC::System::Options provides replacement (wrapper) for Perl's system(), readpipe() (qx//, a.k.a. the backtick operator), as well as IPC::Run's start() and run(). The wrappers give you options like forcing/avoiding use of shell (like what IPC::System::Simple offers you), logging the arguments and/or output (using Log::ger), temporarily setting environment variables, temporarily setting working directory, dying on non-zero exit code, capturing (or tee-ing) output (stdout/stderr) (using Capture::Tiny), and a few others. They are meant as a convenience so you can just call system() (or the other wrapper target) instead of doing some additional setup and cleanup yourself.
