Converting Stdout []string back to []byte?

[14leeyuchieh]

Hi there,

While using this library, I wanted to take the stdout and convert it back into []byte array. However, as Stdout returns a string using the default buffer, I'm having trouble with that.

I tried something along the line of

tfCmd := cmd.NewCmd("/export/content/lid/terraform/bins/0.12.20/terraform", "show", "-no-color", "-json", "tfaasgenerated/plan.tf.out")
// tfCmd := cmd.NewCmd("/export/content/lid/terraform/bins/0.12.20/terraform", "show", "-no-color", "-json")
tfCmd.Dir = "/export/content/lid/data/tfaas-worker/fbe47527-6dd2-4283-95ce-298bdd2e12d9/iac/lit-zscus-1/test-unmanaged"
result := <-tfCmd.Start()
b, err := terraform.NewJSONProcessor(strings.Join(result.Stdout, "\n"), terraform.WithFilter("prior_state")).Bytes()
assert.Nil(t, err)
fmt.Println(fmt.Sprintf("%s", b))

However, parts of the values are missing in the conversion back to []byte! I'm not sure why this is the case. Is there any advice on the way to handle this?

I figured it out. It was b/c I had a wrong command that wasn't sending the full json.
