A .NET library that makes shelling out commands super easy. Think of it as a way to build human-readable shell scripts with the power of a full programming language.
dotnet add package Sheller
Download the source and run.
dotnet test --filter os~nix
Or.
dotnet test --filter os~win
NOTE: Windows tests require WSL.
Latest .NET Standard 2.0.
This library is extendable, but you can run it a few ways depending on how you have extended it.
With no extensions, you would run a command like this.
var echoResult = await Sheller
.Shell("/bin/bash")
.WithEnvironmentVariable("MY_VAR", "lol")
.UseExecutable("echo")
.WithArgument("$MY_VAR")
.ExecuteAsync();
var exitCode = result.ExitCode; // 0
var standardOutput = result.StandardOutput; // "lol\n"
var standardError = result.StandardError; // ""
However, you can build your own custom IShell
and IExecutable
implementations that yield code that looks like this (Sheller ships with Bash
and Echo
by default).
var result = await Sheller
.Shell<Bash>()
.WithEnvironmentVariable("MY_VAR", varValue)
.UseExecutable<Echo>()
.WithArgument("$MY_VAR")
.ExecuteAsync();
var echoValue = result; // "lol"
