execFileSync - Node documentation
function execFileSync

Usage in Deno

import { execFileSync } from "node:child_process";
execFileSync(file: string): Buffer

The child_process.execFileSync() method is generally identical to execFile with the exception that the method will not return until the child process has fully closed. When a timeout has been encountered and killSignal is sent, the method won't return until the process has completely exited.

If the child process intercepts and handles the SIGTERM signal and does not exit, the parent process will still wait until the child process has exited.

If the process times out or has a non-zero exit code, this method will throw an Error that will include the full result of the underlying spawnSync.

If the shell option is enabled, do not pass unsanitized user input to this function. Any input containing shell metacharacters may be used to trigger arbitrary command execution.
