I am trying to execute a command on the server using hubot. This example works for me:
robot.respond /(cmd)/i, (msg) ->
doing = spawn 'ls', ['-la']
doing.stdout.on 'data', (data) ->
msg.send data.toString()
However, I need to change the folder before I execute the command I want to execute. What I want hubot to run is:
cd /var/folder && some-command
but changing the folder from the hubot script doesn't work.
The executed command has a lot of files loaded based on the folder it resides in so it seems I have to go to this folder.
How can I make hubot execute a command from a specific path?
