name: Read stdout from a child process
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
When using [`Bun.spawn()`](https://bun.sh/docs/api/spawn), the `stdout` of the child process can be consumed as a `ReadableStream` via `proc.stdout`.
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
const proc = Bun.spawn(["echo", "hello"]);
|
|
|
|
const output = await proc.stdout.text();
|
|
output; // => "hello"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
To instead pipe the `stdout` of the child process to `stdout` of the parent process, set "inherit".
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
const proc = Bun.spawn(["echo", "hello"], {
|
|
stdout: "inherit",
|
|
});
|
|
```
