A simpler way to call spawn or exec of child_process.
Makes it easy to call spawn with custom event-handlers.
Makes options easy to template, extend, invoke strategies,
generating event-handlers that can notify, for example.
var run = require('childish-process');run(command[, options]);same aschild_process.spawnthough using cross-spawn-async for better Windows supportrun(command[, options], callback);delegates tochild_process.exec
The options may include a "childish" key with custom event handlers for any of:
"stdout", "stderr", "error", or "close".
It's unlikely that node will ever add a childish option to its child_process.
See the handlers function
and its defaults for what can be overridden via childish options.
The configuration options are getting a huge upgrade, to be documented and probably tested.
Meanwhile, example usage can be found in datomiki's
gulpfile.js and notifications.json,
while gulp-npm-test is an example for code usage.
