runExternalCommand method

dynamic runExternalCommand(dynamic command, dynamic path)

Helps to create temporary script to run on the system

Implementation

runExternalCommand(command, path) async {
  return getTemporaryDirectory().then((projectDirectory) async {
    final fileName = const Uuid().v1().substring(0, 10);
    final fileScript = "$fileName.sh";
    final presentWorkingDirectory = await SystemUtils.pwd();
    debugPrint("PWD: $presentWorkingDirectory");
    final filePath = SystemUtils.pathSeparator(
        [presentWorkingDirectory, 'assets', 'temp-scripts']);
    outputFile = SystemUtils.pathSeparator(
        [presentWorkingDirectory, 'assets', 'output', '$fileName.txt']);

    debugPrint((projectDirectory).toString());
    final commandString = _commandStringGenerator(command, path, outputFile);

    final data = File(filePath + fileScript);
    final sink = data.openWrite();

    sink.write(commandString);
    return sink.flush().then((_) {
      sink.close();
      return Process.run(fileScript, [],
              workingDirectory: filePath, runInShell: true)
          .then((result) {
        data.delete();
        // Toast.show("Command Run Complete", message: command);
        // fixme: refactor
        // Toast.notify("Command finished: $command",
        //     outputFile: outputFile!, message: "Output saved in: $outputFile");
      });
    });
  });

  // return "cd $filePath; ./$fileName";
}
