How to use ProcessBuilder to continually interact with a CLI program

问题


I use a CLI program regularly which is accessed through a docker container. Once I enter the container, I can start using my CLI program in question. The issue I'm having is I want to continue to interact with the same command line instance. Basically I'm trying to create a GUI program that will run "on top" of a CLI program. I just don't know how to keep sending commands to the same CLI instance:

List<String> command = new ArrayList<String>();
command.add("cmd.exe" );
command.add("/c");
command.add("docker-compose up -d");
System.out.println(command);

ProcessBuilder builder = new ProcessBuilder(command);
builder.inheritIO();
Map<String, String> environ = builder.environment();

Process process = builder.start();
InputStream is = process.getInputStream();
InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
String line;
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
    System.out.println(line);
}
command.clear();
command.add("cmd.exe" );
command.add("/c");
command.add("docker ps");
System.out.println(command);

process = builder.start();
is = process.getInputStream();
isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
br = new BufferedReader(isr);
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
    System.out.println(line);
}

But this isn't working the way I would like it to. Above, you'll see I'm running two commands: docker-compose up -d and then docker ps. But I don't think they are running in the same instance. So if I were to change the directory in the first command, it's not going to remember the directory for the second command.

Also, it seems to be running my commands in reverse order from the order in the code.

Instances of class ProcessBuilder are intended to be short-lived, in my opinion. I don't think creating a new instance each time you want to create a new process wastes memory or other resources - but I'm only guessing.

In any case, to re-use a ProcessBuilder instance in order to execute several processes, you simply use its methods, like command(String...)

I wrote a small Swing app that lets the user enter a [operating system] command and displays that command's output. It's not production ready, but I hope it's enough to get you going.

Note that creating and handling a Process in java code is not simple nor intuitive. The article When Runtime.exec() won't helped me a lot. It is an ancient article, but nonetheless still relevant (again, in my opinion). Simply replace references to class Runtime in the article with class ProcessBuilder since the article was written before ProcessBuilder was added to the JDK.

Here is the code of my app. Please refer to the above-mentioned article in order to understand the ProcessBuilder related code. In order to understand the Swing code, I recommend the tutorial Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing
