Example
|
|

|
|
### simple
|
|
|
|
``` js
|
|
var shellescape = require('any-shell-escape');
|
|
|
|
var args = ['curl', '-v', '-H', 'Location;', '-H', "User-Agent: FooBar's so-called \"Browser\"", 'http://www.daveeddy.com/?name=dave&age=24'];
|
|
|
|
var escaped = shellescape(args);
|
|
console.log(escaped);
|

```
|
|

yields (on POSIX shells):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl -v -H 'Location;' -H 'User-Agent: FoorBar'"'"'s so-called "Browser"' 'http://www.daveeddy.com/?name=dave&age=24'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or (on Windows):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
curl -v -H "Location;" -H "User-Agent: FooBar's so-called ""Browser""" "http://www.daveeddy.com/?name=dave&age=24"

|
|
|
### Advanced Usage:
|
|
|
|
``` js
|
|
var shellescape = require('shell-escape');
|
|
|
|
var args = ['hello!', 'how are you doing $USER', '"double"', "'single'"];
|
|
|
|
var escaped = 'echo ' + shellescape.msg(args);
|
|
console.log(escaped);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
yields (on POSIX shells):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
echo 'hello!' 'how are you doing $USER' '"double"' "'"'single'"'"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
or (on Windows, which doesn't support escaping echoed messages):
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
echo hello! how are you doing $USER "double" 'single'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and when run on the shell:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ echo 'hello!' 'how are you doing $USER' '"double"' "'"'single'"'"
|
|
hello! how are you doing $USER "double" 'single'
|
|
```
