# Exec-wait

A simple promiseful execution utility that waits for input from stdout or a

HTTP/HTTPS request to return until giving the control to the next command in

the chain.

Useful e.g. for test automation process chains etc.

## Installation

    > npm install exec-wait

## Usage

    var ghostDriver = exec({

      name: 'Ghostdriver',

      cmd: path.join(require.resolve('phantomjs'), '../phantom/bin',

        'phantomjs' + (process.platform === 'win32' ? '.exe' : '')),

      args: ['--webdriver=4444', '--ignore-ssl-errors=true'],

      monitor: { stdout: 'GhostDriver - Main - running on port 4444' }

    });

    var cmdAndArgs = require('package.json').scripts.start.split(/\s/),

      testServer = exec({

        name: 'Test server',

        cmd: cmdAndArgs[0],

        args: cmdAndArgs.slice(1),

        monitor: {

          url: 'http://localhost:8080/',

          checkHTTPResponse: false

        },

        httpOptions: {

          rejectUnauthorized: false

        }

      });

    testServer.start()

      .then(ghostDriver.start)

      .then(function() {

        // Do something

      })

      .then(ghostDriver.stop)

      .then(testServer.stop);

httpOptions can be used to pass options to http / https modules. e.g. rejectUnauthorized skips certificate validity checks (required for self-signed certificates)
