Execute a terminal command from a Cocoa app

in the spirit of sharing... this is a method I use frequently to run shell scripts. you can add a script to your product bundle (in the copy phase of the build) and then have the script be read and run at runtime. note: this code looks for the script in the privateFrameworks sub-path. warning: this could be a security risk for deployed products, but for our in-house development it is an easy way to customize simple things (like which host to rsync to...) without re-compiling the application, but just editing the shell script in the bundle.

//------------------------------------------------------
-(void) runScript:(NSString*)scriptName { NSTask *task; task = [[NSTask alloc] init]; [task setLaunchPath: @"/bin/sh"]; NSArray *arguments; NSString* newpath = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@/%@",[[NSBundle mainBundle] privateFrameworksPath], scriptName]; NSLog(@"shell script path: %@",newpath); arguments = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:newpath, nil]; [task setArguments: arguments]; NSPipe *pipe; pipe = [NSPipe pipe]; [task setStandardOutput: pipe]; NSFileHandle *file; file = [pipe fileHandleForReading]; [task launch]; NSData *data; data = [file readDataToEndOfFile]; NSString *string; string = [[NSString alloc] initWithData: data encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]; NSLog (@"script returned:\n%@", string); } //------------------------------------------------------
