A lightweight wrapper around NuProcess. This library offer a resource-safe, functional API for the Cats Effect / fs2 ecosystem.

Error reporting is currently limited but otherwise the library should be in good shape for use. Do note that no production deployment have been attempted yet.

libraryDependencies += "eu.monniot" %% "fs2-process" % "<latest-version>"

This library is currently published for scala 2.12 and 2.13. NuProcess being a Java library, there is support for scala.js or native.

What follows is a simple example of spawning a process and reading its standard output:

import eu.monniot.process.Process
import cats.effect._

object Example extends IOApp {
  override def run(args:  List[String]): IO[ExitCode] = 
    Process.spawn[IO]("ls").use { process =>
      process.stdout
          .through(fs2.text.utf8Decode)
          .compile
          .foldMonoid
          .flatMap(text => IO(println(text)))
    }.map(_ => ExitCase.Success)
}

More complex examples can be found in the ProcessSpec test suite.
