const spawnShell = require('spawn-shell');
// simple to use with promise
const exitCode = await spawnShell('echo "it works" && exit 42').exitPromise;
// output it works to stdout
// exitCode === 42
// access ChildProcess instance before promise is resolved
const p = spawnShell('echo "it works"', {
stdio: [0, 'pipe', 2]
});
p.stdout.pipe(concat(
{encoding: 'string'},
output => {
