      @sdetweil Hey, I get a syntax error from “const { exec } = require(‘child_process’); unexpected token {” its the one before exec. Get the same from spawn.
      Thanks

        @Jackkt Also without the {} the error is “unexpected identifier” for
        “spawn”

            @sdetweil I was just quoting sorry it looks like:
            const { exec } = require(‘child_process’);

            and

            const exec = require(‘child_process’);

              @Jackkt ok. I just cut/pasted it from a working module.

              When posting code or config in the forum, please use the markup syntax. 3 backticks (key left of number 1) before your content on a separate line
              And 3 more after on a separate line
