Hi all,
I just noticed the new path and prefix context managers added to master, nice
touch :) . How easy would it be to refactor path into a more generic environ
(or sth) context manager (or create a new one) which prepends VAR=VALUE pairs
to the command?
I just found myself needing that when writing something that needed
http(s)_proxy variables.
I think the complexity will be with sudo as it doesn't always preserve the
environment, the usual ways around it are to put VAR=VALUE pairs after 'sudo'
but before the command being executed (if setenv sudoers option is set) or
using /usr/bin/env.
Thoughts?
