I'm running the following:
const exec = require('child_process').exec;
let installProcess = exec('npm install');
installProcess.stdout.pipe(process.stdout);
installProcess.stderr.pipe(process.stderr);
But I get no output in my terminal, what else can I try?
The following ended up working for me:
const execSync = require('child_process').execSync;
execSync('npm install', {stdio:[0,1,2]});
const execSync = require('child_process').execSync;?This works perfectly
const exec = require('child_process').exec;
const installProcess = exec('npm install --verbose');
installProcess.stdout.on('data', process.stdout.write);
installProcess.stderr.on('data', process.stdout.write);
installProcess.on('close', (code) => process.stdout.write(`exited with ${code}`));
and the result
❯ node index.js
stderr: npm
stderr: info it worked if it ends with ok
npm verb cli [ '/usr/local/Cellar/node/6.3.0/bin/node',
