--- title: Module hilbish.runner description: interactive command runner customization layout: doc menu: docs: parent: "API" --- ## Introduction The runner interface contains functions that allow the user to change how Hilbish interprets interactive input. Users can add and change the default runner for interactive input to any language or script of their choosing. A good example is using it to write command in Fennel. ## Functions ||| |----|----| |setMode(cb)|This is the same as the `hilbish.runnerMode` function.| |lua(cmd)|Evaluates `cmd` as Lua input. This is the same as using `dofile`| |sh(cmd)|Runs a command in Hilbish's shell script interpreter.|

hilbish.runner.setMode(cb)

This is the same as the `hilbish.runnerMode` function. It takes a callback, which will be used to execute all interactive input. In normal cases, neither callbacks should be overrided by the user, as the higher level functions listed below this will handle it. #### Parameters `function` **`cb`**

hilbish.runner.lua(cmd)

Evaluates `cmd` as Lua input. This is the same as using `dofile` or `load`, but is appropriated for the runner interface. #### Parameters `string` **`cmd`**

hilbish.runner.sh(cmd)

Runs a command in Hilbish's shell script interpreter. This is the equivalent of using `source`. #### Parameters `string` **`cmd`**
