Executing OS Commands from Spring Shell

Question

I'm using

org.springframework.shell:spring-shell-starter:2.0.0.RELEASE 

With gradle and Spring

My question is: Is there anyway to open vi or vim to edit a file in the OS from the shell?. if not what alternatives do I have to edit this file?

Regards

James

Answer 1

I m not pretty sure with Spring, but with in Java you can, using ProcessBuilder and moreover it will help you to execute multiple command sets.
