Shell API

Shell parsing helpers are available under ptool.sh and p.sh.

ptool.sh.split

v0.1.0 - Introduced.

ptool.sh.split(command) parses a command string using shell-style rules and returns an argument array.

• command (string, required): The command string to split.
• Returns: string[].

Example:

local args = ptool.sh.split("clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings")

The args above is equivalent to:

{"clippy", "--all-targets", "--", "-D", "warnings"}
