shell-exec

Assemble commands and execute in shell with PHP easier

Install

Via composer.

composer require technodelight/shell-exec

Usage

<?php

use Technodelight\ShellExec\Command;
use Technodelight\ShellExec\Exec;

$shell = new Exec('which');
$output = $shell->exec(
    Command::create()
        ->withArgument('php')
        ->withStdErrToStdOut()
        ->withStdOutTo('/dev/null') // command will be assembled as 'which php 2>'
);

var_dump($output); // will be ["/usr/bin/php"]

When an exception happens, an instance of ShellCommandException would be thrown. ShellCommandException will still have the command result:

<?php

use Technodelight\ShellExec\Command;
use Technodelight\ShellExec\Exec;
use Technodelight\ShellExec\ShellCommandException;

try {
    $shell = new Exec;
    $shell->exec(
        Command::create('which')
            ->withArgument('nope') // command will be assembled as 'which nope'
    );
} catch(ShellCommandException $e) {
    // $e->getCode() will be the shell return code for the executed command.
    var_dump($e->getResult());
}

There are multiple drivers available

• Exec
• Passthru

And a special one:

• TestShell, which can be used for behavioural testing. For behat please refer to ShellExec\FixtureContext.
