  Uri uri = Uri.parse(uriPath);
  Process p = null;
  try {
    p = new ProcessBuilder()
      .command(uriPath)

you can run your commands through your code using Runtime class or copy your file to internalStorage then run it.

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("path_to_file/raw/on.sh");

you can run your commands like this and put it's output in variable.

Process output = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("your command");

then get inputstream from it.

InputStream inputStream = output.getInputStram();
