Shelly is a module designed for executing commands in TypeScript. The code exports a function called shelly which takes in two arguments: a command as a string or an array of strings and an optional set of options with default values.
import { shelly } from "@vseplet/shelly";
const res = await shelly(["echo", "Hello, World!"]);
console.log(res.stdout);
// -> Hello, WorldThe shelly function uses the Deno runtime to execute the specified command and captures the output in two separate variables for standard output (stdout) and standard error (stderr). It also catches any errors thrown during the execution process and stores them in an error variable.
To use Shelly for calling shells, you can use one of the provided shell-specific functions: sh, zsh, bash, or fish. These functions accept a command string or an array of command arguments and options, and then call the shelly function internally with the appropriate shell command and arguments.
For example, to execute a simple command using the bash shell, you could use the following code:
import { bash } from "@vseplet/shelly";
const res = await bash`sleep 10; echo Hello!`;
console.log(res);
// -> { stderr: "", stdout: "Hello!\n", error: null }
