node-lookup-tty
Get the TTY device (e.g., /dev/pts/3) of the current node process
Usage
// A clone of the `tty` commandvar tty = ;
Approach
It's an ugly hack, but it should work. The idea is to call fstat
on
file descriptor 0, and then to call stat
on all tty
-like files in dev.
Stop when we find one that matches fstat(0)
.
Limitations
Doesn't work on Windows. Should work on OSX and Linux, but needs some testing. Won't work if fd=0 isn't standard input connected to a TTY.
