| 98 | # methods
|
|---|
| 99 |
|
|---|
| 100 | ``` js
|
|---|
| 101 | var quote = require('shell-quote/quote');
|
|---|
| 102 | var parse = require('shell-quote/parse');
|
|---|
| 103 | ```
|
|---|
| 104 |
|
|---|
| 105 | ## quote(args)
|
|---|
| 106 |
|
|---|
| 107 | Return a quoted string for the array `args` suitable for using in shell
|
|---|
| 108 | commands.
|
|---|
| 109 |
|
|---|
| 110 | ## parse(cmd, env={})
|
|---|
| 111 |
|
|---|
| 112 | Return an array of arguments from the quoted string `cmd`.
|
|---|
| 113 |
|
|---|
| 114 | Interpolate embedded bash-style `$VARNAME` and `${VARNAME}` variables with
|
|---|
| 115 | the `env` object which like bash will replace undefined variables with `""`.
|
|---|
| 116 |
|
|---|
| 117 | `env` is usually an object but it can also be a function to perform lookups.
|
|---|
| 118 | When `env(key)` returns a string, its result will be output just like `env[key]`
|
|---|
| 119 | would. When `env(key)` returns an object, it will be inserted into the result
|
|---|
| 120 | array like the operator objects.
|
|---|
| 121 |
|
|---|
| 122 | When a bash operator is encountered, the element in the array with be an object
|
|---|
| 123 | with an `"op"` key set to the operator string. For example:
|
|---|
| 124 |
|
|---|
| 125 | ```
|
|---|
| 126 | 'beep || boop > /byte'
|
|---|
| 127 | ```
|
|---|
| 128 |
|
|---|
| 129 | parses as:
|
|---|
| 130 |
|
|---|
| 131 | ```
|
|---|
| 132 | [ 'beep', { op: '||' }, 'boop', { op: '>' }, '/byte' ]
|
|---|
| 133 | ```
|
|---|
| 134 |
|
|---|
