# Pharo Shell Socket Proxy
This is a small utility for Windows that can execute external (shell) commands, thus partially replacing ProcessWrapper.
It contains a small Python server that executes (shell) commands via python's subprocess.
Pharo communicates with the server through sockets, thus avoiding broken OSProcess/ProcessWrapper libraries.
Created mainly to cooperate with git command, so not really tested (WorksForMe™), but it feels much, much faster than ProcessWrapper.
Server's execution is logged in case something will fuck up.
## Example
```st
shell := SocketShell new.
response := shell command: #('git' 'log' '-n' '2' '--oneline').
response exitCode. -> 0
response stderr. -> ''
response stdout. -> '373c1df Merge remote-tracking branch ''origin/master''

## Installation
If for whatever reason you want to try this abomination, you can install it in Pharo
```st
Metacello new
baseline: #SocketShell;
repository: 'github://peteruhnak/pharo-shell-proxy/repository';
load
```
Upon the first use the system will ask you for the location of the directory containing the `proxy.py` (`port.txt` with port number of the server will be created there).
During installation `SocketShell class>>initialize` will override `MCFileTreeGitRepository class>>runProcessWrapperGitCommand:in:` to use `SocketShell` instead.
If you installed `GitFileTree` after `SocketShell`, then you need to manually reinitialize the `SocketShell` class.
The Python server `proxy.py` has to be started separately (for painfully obvious reasons not from Pharo).
The server can also be stopped with `SocketShell class>>terminateServer` on by running the `stopProxy.py` script.
