purescript-node-execa

PureScript port of the execa (NPM library) JavaScript library and the relevant parts of all of its relevant dependencies when such dependencies essentially share the same license (i.e. MIT/ISC).

Differences from execa / child_process module

• execa:
  • Unsupported: the all option, which merges stdout/stderr into one stream.
• child_process' module
  • Unsupported: spawn's serialization option
  • Unsupported: spawn's signal option, which kills the process if it's corresponding AbortController is aborted

License requirements

• cross-spawn - MIT
• get-stream - MIT
• is-exe - ISC
• merge-stream - MIT
• npm-run-path - MIT
• shebang-command - MIT
• signal-exit - ISC
• strip-final-newline - MIT
• which - ISC
• path-key - MIT
  • Note: personal experience indicates that Windows still uses case-sensitive keys for its environment. So ignore path-key#8. This library's functionality was implemented via envKey so that other case-sensitivity issues do not arise on Windows.

The below dependencies of execa did not need to be ported since such functionality was implemented primarily via Aff.

• mimic-fn - functionality unneeded as Aff Fibers are a more flexible implementation than Promises.
• onetime - functionality provided via Aff's joinFiber
• is-stream - functionality provided via PureScript's types
