sheller

Convenience utilities for interacting with and converting shell output. Useful for writing dart scripts.

Example

List<Directory> files = shellSync("cd $outputDir && dart pub run index_generator && ls -d */");

More Examples

// int
int number = await shell("echo 1");
assert(number == 1);
// json
String data = '{"id":1, "name":"lorem ipsum", "address":"dolor set amet"}';
Map<String, dynamic> json = await shell('echo $data');
assert(json.entries.length == 3);
// List<double>
List<double> doubleList = await shell('echo 1 2 3');
assert(doubleList.length == 3);
// Class version
ShellSync shellClass = ShellSync("echo 1");
int id = shellClass.rawResult.pid; // shell.rawResult.runtimeType == ProcessResult
String stringResult = shellClass.stringResult; // == "1"
int convertedResult = shellClass(); // == 1

Custom Conversion Types

class IntConverter extends Converter<String, int> {
  const IntConverter();

  @override
  int convert(String input) {
    int? result = int.tryParse(input);
    if (result == null) {
      throw ShellResultConversionException(int, input);
    }
    return result;
  }
}

ShellConversionConfig.add(const IntConverter());
