On platforms that support compiling native modules it uses the [thread-sleep](https://github.com/ForbesLindesay/thread-sleep) module to wait for an output file to exist in a tight loop. In this way it gains excellent cross platform support, but don't expect it to be efficient on all platforms. - -[](https://travis-ci.org/ForbesLindesay/spawn-sync) -[](https://david-dm.org/ForbesLindesay/spawn-sync) -[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/spawn-sync) - -## Installation - - npm install spawn-sync - -If this fails, you can try one of the following things: - -1. Some package managers made a stupid decision to rename the `node` executable to `nodejs` for their platform. This breaks compatibility with lots of modules. If you normally use `nodejs` instead of `node`, you should check out http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18130164/nodejs-vs-node-on-ubuntu-12-04 for possible fixes. - -2. You can install using `--unsafe-perm`, which will fix any permissions issues. - - npm install --unsafe-perm spawn-sync - -3. You can install using `--ignore-scripts`, which will skip native compilation. You'll get a warning if you try to require the module, but everything should still work. - - npm install --ignore-scripts spawn-sync - -4. You can try [updating npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/getting-started/installing-node), since this seems to fail on some older versions of npm: - - sudo npm install npm -g - -5. You can upgrade to the latest version of node or iojs. This will make native compilation unnecessary. You can then use `--ignore-scripts` without getting a warning if you still have trouble. - -## Usage - -```js -var spawnSync = require('spawn-sync'); - -var result = spawnSync('node', - ['filename.js'], - {input: 'write this to stdin'}); - -if (result.status !== 0) { - process.stderr.write(result.stderr); - process.exit(result.status); -} else { - process.stdout.write(result.stdout); - process.stderr.write(result.stderr); -} -``` - -## License - - MIT |
