    Yeah, or over https://github.com/sindresorhus/execa?

    And given the existence of those npm packages, is there any aspect of Bun Shell that required it to be built into the Bun runtime instead of published to npm?

    For something which works across all JS runtimes (Deno, Node) and achieves basically the same, check out the popular JS library Execa[1]. Works like a charm!

  • How to run DB migrations in CICD Pipeline
    2 projects | /r/ExperiencedDevs | 21 Apr 2023
    Hello, this is an interesting problem. At https://stacktape.com (where we're creating a developer-friendly abstraction of AWS), we're recommending 2 options: - use a "deployment script" (basically a custom-resource lambda function that runs during the CloudFormation deployment). You can install prisma into it, and then execute the migration command from the lambda function using something like execa, if you're using Javascript/Typescript. You can easily do this with Stacktape anytime. - use a bastion (EC2) instance (deployed to the the VPC where your RDS db is). The cheapest instances cost ~4.5$/month, so it shoudln't be too costly. You can also securely connect to it using EC2 instance connect, that leverages IAM to grant permissions to connect to it. (this is something we're currently implementing as Stacktape, and will be ready in ~2 weeks).

  • Getting vim ex command output without a TTY?
    1 project | /r/vim | 14 Dec 2021
    Essentially when I run this from my shell I get a listing of keymaps configured for vim. However, when I run it from a program without a PTY or TTY (e.g., via Rust's Command or Node's execa) I get an exit code of 0 and no output.
