In the context of programming, we refer to "pipe" as the action where you send the output of a process into another one.
For example, I can say:
echo "hello" | sed 's/h/XX/g'
# ^
# this is a pipe!
Here, the pipe |
represents that for a given input "hello" that gets printed by the executable echo
, another command sed
will perform an action (replacing all h
s with XX
, but this is not important).
Pipe can be a noun or a verb. So what I want to know is how to say this as a verb in Spanish.
WordReference suggests these verbs:
- canalizar
- verter
and these nouns:
- tubería
- manguera
But they are liquid-related, so I wonder if any other verb can match better in the IT context.
