UNSTABLE: New API, yet to be vetted.

Create a child process.

If any stdio options are not set to "piped", accessing the corresponding field on the Command or its CommandOutput will throw a TypeError.

If stdin is set to "piped", the stdin WritableStream needs to be closed manually.

const command = new Deno.Command(Deno.execPath(), {
  args: [
    "eval",
    "console.log('Hello World')",
  ],
  stdin: "piped",
});
command.spawn();

// open a file and pipe the subprocess output to it.
command.stdout.pipeTo(Deno.openSync("output").writable);

// manually close stdin
command.stdin.close();
const status = await command.status;

const command = new Deno.Command(Deno.execPath(), {
  args: [
    "eval",
    "console.log('hello'); console.error('world')",
  ],
});
const { code, stdout, stderr } = await command.output();
console.assert(code === 0);
console.assert("hello\n" === new TextDecoder().decode(stdout));
console.assert("world\n" === new TextDecoder().decode(stderr));

const command = new Deno.Command(Deno.execPath(), {
  args: [
    "eval",
    "console.log('hello'); console.error('world')",
  ],
});
const { code, stdout, stderr } = command.outputSync();
console.assert(code === 0);
console.assert("hello\n" === new TextDecoder().decode(stdout));
console.assert("world\n" === new TextDecoder().decode(stderr));
