run_inspec_process_with_this_plugin(command_line, opts = {}) click to toggle source

This helper does some fancy footwork to make InSpec think a plugin under development is temporarily installed. @param String command_line Invocation, without the word 'inspec' @param Hash opts options as for run_inspec_process, with more options:

:pre_run: Proc(plugin_statefile_data, tmp_dir_path) - optional setup block.
   Modify plugin_statefile_data as needed; it will be written to a plugins.json
   in tmp_dir_path.  You may also copy in other things to the tmp_dir_path. Your PWD
   will be in the tmp_dir, and it will exist and be empty.
:post_run: Proc(CommandResult, tmp_dir_path) - optional result capture block.
   Your PWD will be the tmp_dir, and it will still exist (for a moment!)
