fn hostname(bin: Option<&OsStr>) -> Option<String>
Expand description
Retrieves the hostname that ripgrep should use wherever a hostname is required. Currently, that’s just in the hyperlink format.
This works by first running the given binary program (if present and with
no arguments) to get the hostname after trimming leading and trailing
whitespace. If that fails for any reason, then it falls back to getting
the hostname via platform specific means (e.g., gethostname
on Unix).
The purpose of bin
is to make it possible for end users to override how
ripgrep determines the hostname.
