@computesdk/cmd

Type-safe shell command builders for use with ComputeSDK sandboxes.

Installation

npm install @computesdk/cmd

Usage

Basic Commands

import { cmd, npm, node, git } from '@computesdk/cmd';

// Build command tuples
npm.install('express')        // ['npm', 'install', 'express']
node('server.js')             // ['node', 'server.js']
git.clone('https://...')      // ['git', 'clone', 'https://...']

// Use with sandbox.runCommand()
await sandbox.runCommand(npm.install('express'));
await sandbox.runCommand(node('server.js'));

Using with runCommand Options

Modern ComputeSDK sandboxes handle cwd, env, and background options directly:

import { npm, node } from '@computesdk/cmd';

// Let the sandbox handle execution options
await sandbox.runCommand('npm install', { cwd: '/app' })
await sandbox.runCommand('node server.js', { background: true })
await sandbox.runCommand('npm run dev', { 
  cwd: '/app', 
  background: true,
  env: { NODE_ENV: 'production' }
})

Shell Wrapping (Advanced)

For cases where you need explicit shell wrapping, use shell(), sh(), bash(), or zsh():

import { shell, bash, zsh, npm } from '@computesdk/cmd';

// Default shell wrapper (sh)
shell(npm.install(), { cwd: '/app' })
// => ['sh', '-c', 'cd "/app" && npm install']

// Bash-specific
bash(npm.install(), { cwd: '/app' })
// => ['bash', '-c', 'cd "/app" && npm install']

// Zsh with background
zsh(npm.run('dev'), { background: true })
// => ['zsh', '-c', 'nohup npm run dev > /dev/null 2>&1 &']

Note: Shell wrapping is rarely needed - prefer using runCommand() options instead.
