How to run linux command by java

Question

Hello everyone, I want to make an app that can extract the linux command that need to be executed from the html to java. I am a newbie just getting started, I don’t know anything about java, I want to ask a lot, if I write as I am now Whether the program can be successfully executed, and if it is successfully executed, can the Linux command be successfully issued in the Android phone?

I want to make an html page linked to java and made linux command to installing youtube-dl , at the begin I want to read the whole project on github but it's too much information for me ಥ‿ಥ

Answer 1

高于鈞 Is there a reason you need the Java app to call a linux command?

Based on what you are describing, you should be able to do what you need in Java directly.

Here is a link with code that might help you see how to approach this.

Bartas Dausynas Yes, of course, I want to make a Youtube downloader without making it😂

Bartas Dausynas Not fishy things, just download youtube videos

Answer 4

Bartas Dausynas So if it's a server side program it can access terminal? Actually if I could I'd like to access youtube servers to download videos😂😂

Answer 5

I've had use cases for this at work, except I'm using C# with .NET Core.

Not sure if this applies to Java as well, but try searching "execute scp command with Java".

Here's my use case:
Admin using a very restrictive desktop app with ssh connection to server needs to run a serverside script.

For your use case however, it sounds like you only need to run a small script on the command line, or build out a small app in Java to do what you need. I dont think you need both.
