Run chained commands?

[alex-phillips]

It doesn't look like it is working for me, but wanted to double check. Is it possible (or can it be a feature request) to pass chained commands into runitor? An example would be something like this:

runitor -uuid my-uuid -- cd /my/script/directory && ./my_script.js

I imagine We'd potentially have to surround the entire command string with quotes, but would be useful as these are some of the entries in my current crontab.

If you want to execute a shell statement, you need runitor to execute the shell for you. The passed command and its arguments are fed to execv(3).

So in your use case, assuming your preferred shell is bash, you should run:

runitor -uuid my-uuid -- bash -c "cd /my/script/directory && ./my_script.js"

D'oh, didn't even think to do that. Thanks!
