How to execute terminal commands through scala

Question

I am trying to access a CSV file in Scala for validating the data in it. I succeeded in that. Now i want to dump all of that CSV file into a MongoDB database using the mongoimport utility of MongoDB. But I don't know how to execute this command from Scala. So, please can anyone tell me how to execute terminal commands from Scala?

My mongoimport command is as follows:

$ mongoimport -d dbname -c Colname --type csv --file Address.csv --headerline

Plese, suggest me any solution. Thanks in advance.

Take a look at scala.sys.process.

It must be something like this:

import scala.sys.process._
val process: Process = Process("echo Hello World").run()
println(process.exitValue())

You can use sys.process standard library. Check the documentation for a complete description.
