Adding `execute_command` library as a dependency

Run this command in a terminal, in your project's directory:

cargo add execute-command

To add it manually, edit your project's Cargo.toml file and add to the [dependencies] section:

execute-command = "0.3.0"

The execute_command library will be automatically available globally. Read the execute_command library documentation.

Readme

execute-command

A simple Rust package that wraps Command to simplify the execution of programs.

Usage

Basic functions:

use execute_command as exec;

let mut command = exec::parse("echo 1").unwrap();
let status = exec::status("echo 1").unwrap();
let output = exec::output("echo 1").unwrap();
let string = exec::string("echo 1").unwrap();

Extending Command:

use execute_command::ExecuteCommand;
use std::process::Command;

let mut command = Command::parse("echo 1").unwrap();
let status = Command::parse("echo 1").unwrap().execute_status().unwrap();
let output = Command::parse("echo 1").unwrap().execute_output().unwrap();
let string = Command::parse("echo 1").unwrap().execute_string().unwrap();

Note that these functions will return an error if the program exits with a non-zero status code.
