## Execute a Command

To execute a command at the command line, add the following to your build file:

```java
@BuildCommand
public void startServer() throws Exception {
    new ExecOperation()
            .fromProject(this)
            .command("./start.sh", "--port", "8080")
            .execute();
}
```

## Exit Value

Use the `failOnExit` function to specify whether a command non-zero exit value (status) constitutes a failure.

```java
@BuildCommand
public void startServer() throws Exception {
    final List<String> cmds;
    if (System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase().contains("win")) {
        cmds = List.of("cmd", "/c", "stop.bat");
    } else {
        cmds = List.of("./stop.sh");
    }
    new ExecOperation()
            .fromProject(this)
            .command(cmds)
            .failOneExit(false)
            .execute();
}
```

## Work Directory

You can also specify the work directory:

```java
@BuildCommand
public void startServer() throws Exception {
    new ExecOperation()
            .fromProject(this)
            .command("touch", "foo.txt")
            .workDir(System.getProperty("java.io.tmpdir"))
            .execute();
}
```

Please check the [ExecOperation documentation](https://rife2.github.io/bld-exec/rife/bld/extension/ExecOperation.html#method-summary) for all available configuration options.
