Running a command in a Grunt Task

rated 0 times [ 195] [ 4] / answers: 1 / hits: 71091 / 12 Years ago, fri, may 4, 2012, 12:00:00

I'm using Grunt (task-based command line build tool for JavaScript projects) in my project. I've created a custom tag and I am wondering if it is possible to run a command into it.

To clarify, I'm trying to use Closure Templates and the task should call the jar file to pre-compile the Soy file to a javascript file.

I'm running this jar from command line, but I want to set it as a task.

I've found a solution so I'd like to share with you.

I'm using grunt under node so, to call terminal commands you need to require 'child_process' module.

For example,

var myTerminal = require(child_process).exec,

    commandToBeExecuted = sh myCommand.sh;



myTerminal(commandToBeExecuted, function(error, stdout, stderr) {

    if (!error) {

         //do something

    }

});
