linux commands execution in java
if you want to execute linux commands in java with multiple parameters and pipes (|) you need to:
private static String executeCommand(String command) {
String[] cmd = {
"/bin/sh",
"-c",
command
};
StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder();
Process p;
try {
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
p.waitFor();
BufferedReader reader =
new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String line;
while ((line = reader.readLine())!= null) {
output.append(line).append("\n");
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return output.toString();
}
now you can pass commands wiht pipes as a regular string
