@npmcli/promise-spawn

Spawn processes the way the npm cli likes to do. Give it some options, it'll give you a Promise that resolves or rejects based on the results of the execution.

USAGE

const promiseSpawn = require('@npmcli/promise-spawn')

promiseSpawn('ls', [ '-laF', 'some/dir/*.js' ], {
  cwd: '/tmp/some/path', // defaults to process.cwd()
  stdioString: true, // stdout/stderr as strings rather than buffers
  stdio: 'pipe', // any node spawn stdio arg is valid here
  // any other arguments to node child_process.spawn can go here as well,
}, {
  extra: 'things',
  to: 'decorate',
  the: 'result',
}).then(result => {
  // {code === 0, signal === null, stdout, stderr, and all the extras}
  console.log('ok!', result)
}).catch(er => {
  // er has all the same properties as the result, set appropriately
  console.error('failed!', er)
})

API

promiseSpawn(cmd, args, opts, extra) -> Promise

Run the command, return a Promise that resolves/rejects based on the process result.

Result or error will be decorated with the properties in the extra object. You can use this to attach some helpful info about why the command is being run, if it makes sense for your use case.

If stdio is set to anything other than 'inherit', then the result/error will be decorated with stdout and stderr values. If stdioString is set to true, these will be strings. Otherwise they will be Buffer objects.

Returned promise is decorated with the stdin stream if the process is set to pipe from stdin. Writing to this stream writes to the stdin of the spawned process.

Options

  • stdioString Boolean, default true. Return stdout/stderr output as strings rather than buffers.
  • cwd String, default process.cwd(). Current working directory for running the script. Also the argument to infer-owner to determine effective uid/gid when run as root on Unix systems.
  • shell Boolean or String. If false, no shell is used during spawn. If true, the system default shell is used. If a String, that specific shell is used. When a shell is used, the given command runs from within that shell by concatenating the command and its escaped arguments and running the result. This option is not passed through to child_process.spawn.
  • Any other options for child_process.spawn can be passed as well.

promiseSpawn.open(arg, opts, extra) -> Promise

Use the operating system to open arg with a default program. This is useful for things like opening the user's default browser to a specific URL.

Depending on the platform in use this will use start (win32), open (darwin) or xdg-open (everything else). In the case of Windows Subsystem for Linux we use the default win32 behavior as it is much more predictable to open the arg using the host operating system.

Options

Options are identical to promiseSpawn except for the following:

  • command String, the command to use to open the file in question. Default is one of start, open or xdg-open depending on platform in use.
