I am recieiving this error when I run a function which calls the exec function then runs the curl command.
Can I run commands using exec in NodeJS in an Appwrite function?
The error:
Error: Command failed: curl -X POST https://xxxxxx.erply.com/api/ -d "clientCode=xxxxxx&username=xxx@xxxx.xx&password=xxxxxxxxx&request=verifyUser&sendContentType=1"
/bin/sh: curl: not found

Summary
Developers are trying to run a curl command from a NodeJS function on version 1.5.x but encounter an error "curl: not found". Instead of using exec in NodeJS, suggest making the API call directly.
