Function executeBatchScript

Provide a virtual batch script in the form of a string array that represent the lines of the script.

Remarks

• It works by writing the sctipt to a temporary file, (synchronously) executing and then deleting the file.
• Errors, stdout and stderr are returned after execution has terminated.
• Batch scripts are only compatible with Windows systems.

Throws

Will throw an error if no temporary directory could be found or is provided.

Example

executeBatchScript(['ping google.com'])
returns: {
  stdout: [
    'Pinging google.com [142.250.74.78] with 32 bytes of data:',
    'Reply from 142.250.74.78: bytes=32 time=18ms TTL=55',
    'Reply from (...)'
  ],
  stderr: [],
  error: undefined,
}
Copy

returns: {
  stdout: ['Ping request could not find host google.comm. Please check the name and try again.'],
