Executing a shell script on the OS

[thestorm]

Dear all,

is it possible, to add a custom action to Share that is executing a command / script on the operating system? I know how to add a custom documentLibrary action but I have no clue on how to start a script (batch/shell) that performs some OS tasks, once my Action is done.

thanks for your help

Have you looked at

java.lang.Runtime.getRuntime().exec()‍

or 

java.lang.ProcessBuilder‍

?
