spawn-lord v0.0.2

spawn-lord

Command line utility for hipsters 👓 which helps to automate parallel execution of same command in different folders

Installation

npm install -g spawn-lord

Usage

spawn <command> [<args>]

where <command> is any command and <args> it's arguments.

NOTE that only single command with it's arguments is allowed, you can not use shell features like && or |

Example

assuming you have the following folders structure:

/folder
  |-/project1 //git-based project
  |-/project2 //also git-based project

Lets say you want to call git fetch in both project1 and project2 folders. You can achieve this by calling the following command:

cd /folder
spawn git fetch

git fetch will be spawned and executed in parallel in all folders under current working folder:

Alternatives

• GNU parallel
• find . -name .git -type d -execdir git fetch ';' although it executes command serially
