You can add Post processor to OS Process sampler, as Regular Expression Extractor and use Regular Expression as (\w+) to get output

This is assuming you left Standard output empty which will return the output in response data

Standard output (stdout Name of output file for standard output (STDOUT). If omitted, output is captured and returned as the response data.

The easiest would be using JSR223 Sampler like 

vars.put('foo', 'your_command_here'.execute().text)
