cp-sugar

Some sugar for child_process module.

Install

npm install cp-sugar

API

.exec(cmd)

const exec = require('cp-sugar').exec;

exec('git status --porcelain')
    .then(stdout => console.log(stdout))
    .catch(err => console.log(err.message));

What's cool about it:

• Promise-based
• Trims stdout

.spawn(cmd, silent)

const spawn = require('cp-sugar').spawn;

spawn('git status --porcelain')
    .then(() => ...)
    .catch(err => console.log(err.message));

What's cool about it:

• Promise-based
• Accepts command string as exec instead of executable and array of args in the original implementation
• Windows-frienldy
• Rejects on both error and non-zero exit code
• Has silent mode (ignore child's stdio)
