Can i put a bash scripts into Qt based application for Linux?

[YtreioJ]

Hi,
ex, i'm newbie in the Qt, can i put some short bash scripts to my qt app on linux as an exec? Or how to simply re-write it into qt code?
Scripts for service overload, for copying, etc
.
Maybe you have some manuals about it?

@YtreioJ Hi,
You can use QProcess to start external process

It's just run a script with the terminal window? Can i hide the terminal window with these methods?

@YtreioJ
A script run as a QProcess will not show any terminal window.

But sudo-password is require for my script

@YtreioJ
That does not affect the fact that QProcess will not show any terminal window. And so left to its own devices is not suitable to just run sudo ... if you want interactive password prompting.

For that you might either examine using sudo -S, or sudo -A and the SUDO_ASKPASS environment variable, or policy kits, or... https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/254072/how-do-i-ask-password-by-gui-prompt-while-using-sudo-in-script covers some of the possibilities, https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/programming-9/problem-in-launching-a-terminal-command-with-a-qt-button-787946/, others. I also posted on this matter in this forum previously at https://forum.qt.io/topic/100215/linux-run-external-process-with-requesting-password

@JonB Oh, thank you!
