> Execute shell command forwarding all stdio streams.
|
|
|
|
## Features
|
|
|
|
exec-sh is a wrapper for [`child_process.spawn`](http://nodejs.org/api/child_process.html#child_process_child_process_spawn_command_args_options) with some improvements:
|
|
|
|
- Cross platform command execution:
|
|
- Windows: `cmd /C COMMAND`
|
|
- others: `sh -c COMMAND`
|
|
- Fowrards all stdio streams to current terminal (by default):
|
|
- `execSh("bash")`
|
|
- `execsh("echo -n Say: && read i && echo Said:$i")`
|
|
- stdout and stderr are passed to callback when available
|
|
- `execSh("pwd", console.log)`
|
|
|
|
## Showcase
|
|
```javascript
|
|
// JavaScript
|
|
|
|
execSh("echo hello exec-sh && bash", { cwd: "/home" }, function(err){
|
|
if (err) {
|
|
console.log("Exit code: ", err.code);
|
|
}
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
# Terminal output: interactive bash session
|
|
|
|
hello exec-sh
|
|
bash-3.2$ pwd
|
|
/home
|
|
bash-3.2$ exit 99
|
|
exit
|
|
Exit code: 99
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
var execSh = require("../");
|
|
|
|
// run interactive bash shell
|
|
execSh("echo lorem && bash", { cwd: "/home" }, function(err){
|
|
if (err) {
|
|
console.log("Exit code: ", err.code);
|
|
return;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// collect streams output
|
|
var child = execSh(["bash -c id", "echo lorem >&2"], true,
|
|
function(err, stdout, stderr){
|
|
console.log("error: ", err);
|
|
console.log("stdout: ", stdout);
|
|
console.log("stderr: ", stderr);
|
|
});
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
