I am writing one web-like linux shell using node.js + socket.io. Simple command like, ls, cd are working well. But when issue command like ping google.com, the stdout is printing endlessly. I tried to send Ctrl +C to stdin, but no luck.
1) spawn 'bash' process
spawn = require('child_process').spawn;
var sh = spawn('bash');
2) send bash stdout to socket.io
sh.stdout.on('data', function(data) {
console.log('stdout' + data);
listener.sockets.emit("stdout",new Buffer(data));
});
3) Sending Ctl C (\x03) to bash's stdin. var listener = io.listen(server);
listener.set('log level',1);
listener.sockets.on('connection', function(client){
client.on('message', function(data){
if(data === "KILL") {
console.log('!!!!' + data);
sh.stdin.write('\x03');
client.broadcast.send(new Buffer("KILLING "));
//return;
};
console.log(data);
sh.stdin.write(data+"\n");
client.broadcast.send(new Buffer("> "+data));
});
});
I am stuck at this point. Seems like
