Api reference childprocess

Module: child_process

The child_process module allows you to invoke subprocesses and communicate with them via stdin / stdout / stderr. This is useful for tasks such as printing, sending mail, or invoking scripts or programs written in another language (not Javascript).

FIXME: this documentation is incomplete.

See examples/child_process.js.

var child_process = require("child_process");
child_process.spawn("ls",  ["-lF", "/rooot"]);
