Usage
The shell plugin executes shell commandos after set, get or error.
The configuration keys
execute/set
execute/get
execute/error
are used to store the shell commands.
The configuration keys
execute/set/return
execute/get/return
execute/error/return
can be compared against the return values of the shell commandos.
Example
# Create temporary file
kdb set system:/tests/tempfile $(mktemp)
# Mount plugin and specify plugin configuration
sudo kdb mount shell.ini system:/tests/shell ni array= shell execute/set="echo set >> $(kdb get system:/tests/tempfile)"
cat $(kdb get system:/tests/tempfile)
#>
# Execute `set` command
kdb set system:/tests/shell ""
#> Create a new key system:/tests/shell with string ""
