cross-spawn-windows-exe
Cross-platform support for running Windows executables via Node.js.
Utilizes @malept/cross-spawn-promise (and by
extension, cross-spawn) to execute Windows executables regardless
of platform.
For all platforms, Node 10 or above is required.
On non-Windows, non-WSL host systems, the following dependencies are required:
Usage
Using the cross-spawn-windows-exe API is similar in terms of function signature to spawn in
@malept/cross-spawn-promise.
Running a .NET executable
1// Note: top-level await exists in Node >= 14.8.0. In earlier versions of Node, please wrap in an 2// async function. 3 4const { spawnDotNet } = require("cross-spawn-windows-exe"); 5 6await spawnDotNet("./hellodotnet.exe", ["--arg1"]);
Running a Windows executable
1// Note: top-level await exists in Node >= 14.8.0. In earlier versions of Node, please wrap in an 2// async function. 3 4const { spawnExe } = require("cross-spawn-windows-exe"); 5 6await spawnExe("./hellowindows.exe", ["--arg1"]);
Normalizing Paths
Executables generally can't handle UNIX-style paths that Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) passes
in, since it's a Linux environment. This module provides a function to convert those paths from
UNIX-style to Windows-style (via wslpath, which should be installed by default on every WSL
distribution), if the host system is determined to be WSL. For non-WSL environments, this is a
no-op.
1// Note: top-level await exists in Node >= 14.8.0. In earlier versions of Node, please wrap in an 2// async function. 3 4const { normalizePath, spawnExe } = require("cross-spawn-windows-exe"); 5 6const normalizedPath = await normalizePath("/tmp/foo"); 7await spawnExe("./openfile.exe", ["--filename", normalizedPath]);
