exec-sh
Execute shell command forwarding all stdio streams.
Features
exec-sh is a wrapper for child_process.spawn
with some improvements:
- Cross platform command execution:
- Windows:
cmd /C COMMAND
- others:
sh -c COMMAND
- Windows:
- Fowrards all stdio streams to current terminal (by default):
execSh("bash")
execsh("echo -n Say: && read i && echo Said:$i")
- stdout and stderr are passed to callback when available
execSh("pwd", console.log)
Showcase
// JavaScript
execSh("echo hello exec-sh && bash", { cwd: "/home" }, function(err){
if (err) {
console.log("Exit code: ", err.code);
}
});
# Terminal output: interactive bash session
hello exec-sh
bash-3.2$ pwd
/home
bash-3.2$ exit 99
exit
Exit code: 99
Usage
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);
});
});
Promise Interface
var execShPromise = require("exec-sh").promise;
// run interactive bash shell
const run = async () => {
let out;
try {
out = await execShPromise('pwd', true);
} catch (e) {
console.log('Error: ', e);
console.log('Stderr: ', e.stderr);
console.log('Stdout: ', e.stdout);
return e;
}
console.log('out: ', out.stdout, out.stderr);
}
run();
