can run command in node js code example

Example 1: execute terminal command nodejs

// You can use 'exec' this way
// LINUX EXAMPLE

const { exec } = require("child_process");

exec("ls -la", (error, stdout, stderr) => {
    if (error) {
        console.log(`error: ${error.message}`);
        return;
    }
    if (stderr) {
        console.log(`stderr: ${stderr}`);
        return;
    }
    console.log(`stdout: ${stdout}`);
});

Example 2: node run command

// Run a command asynchronously
const { spawn } = require('child_process');
const dir = spawn('cmd', ['/c', 'dir']);

dir.stdout.on('data', data => console.log(`Stdout: ${data}`));
dir.stderr.on('data', data => console.log(`Stderr: ${data}`));
dir.on('close', code => console.log(`Exit code: ${code}`));

// Run a command synchronously
const { spawnSync } = require( 'child_process' );
const dir = spawnSync('cmd', ['/c', 'dir']);

console.log(`Stdout: ${dir.stdout.toString()}`);
console.log(`Stderr: ${dir.stderr.toString()}`);
