如果你需要转义参数，在Ruby 1.9 IO中。Popen也接受数组:

p IO.popen(["echo", "it's escaped"]).read

在早期版本中，你可以使用Open3.popen3:

require "open3"

Open3.popen3("echo", "it's escaped") { |i, o| p o.read }

如果你还需要传递stdin，这应该在1.9和1.8中都有效:

out = IO.popen("xxd -p", "r+") { |io|
    io.print "xyz"
    io.close_write
    io.read.chomp
}
p out # "78797a"

将标准输出捕获到名为val的变量中最简单的解决方案:

val = capture(:stdout) do
  system("pwd")
end

puts val

缩短版本:

val = capture(:stdout) { system("ls") }

捕获方法由 active_support / core_ext /内核/ reporting.rb

类似地，我们也可以用:stderr捕获标准错误

最方便的方法是:

    stdout_str, stderr_str, status = Open3.capture3(cmd)
    puts "exit status: #{status.exitstatus} stdout: #{stdout_str}"

作为直接系统(…)替代品，您可以使用Open3.popen3(…)

你可以使用一个叫做Frontkick的宝石

Frontkick.exec("echo *")

下面是如何检查和阅读它:

result = Frontkick.exec("echo *")

puts result.successful? #=> true if exit_code is 0
puts result.success?    #=> alias to successful?, for compatibility with Process::Status
puts result.stdout      #=> stdout output of the command
puts result.stderr      #=> stderr output of the command
puts result.exit_code   #=> exit_code of the command
puts result.status      #=> alias to exit_code
puts result.exitstatus  #=> alias to exit_code, for compatibility with Process::Status
puts result.duration    #=> the time used to execute the command
