I am working on shell script.
EXEC $CXCHOME+"/etc/expand_in_place" $MMSHOME+"/PDM/bin/pmr_pdm_aos"**
CXCHOME "/opt/ericsson/aos/PDM"
MMSHOME "/opt/ericsson/aos"
the code of expand_in_place is as below -
#!/bin/bash
. $INST_DATADIR/$PKG/install/aosbootcommon.sh
filename=`basename $1`
tmpfile="/tmp/$filename.$$"
rm -f "$tmpfile"
cp -p "$1" "$tmpfile"
echoLog "Expanding $1..."
expand "$tmpfile" "$1"
rm -f "$tmpfile"
cleanExit 0
I wanted to know the working of "expand_in_place".
Long answer:
#!/bin/bash
Use /bin/bash program to process the code that follows.
. $INST_DATADIR/$PKG/install/aosbootcommon.sh
Read and execute the code in this file in the same process
filename=`basename $1`
Run the basename program, passing-in the first command-line argument (use man basename to find out what that does). The back-ticks are a deprecated way to capture the output from a program. In this case the output from basename is placed into the filename variable.
tmpfile="/tmp/$filename.$$"
Set the variable tmpfile to be /tmp, followed by the values of filename, followed by out current process id. The $ is an operator which gives us the value of a variable. $$ gives us the value of our current PID.
rm -f "$tmpfile"
Run the rm program passing these parameters : use man rm to find out what that does.
cp -p "$1" "$tmpfile"
Run the cp program passing those parameters: use man cp to find out what that does.
echoLog "Expanding $1..."
I have no idea what echoLog does, it is probably a local function defined in $INST_DATADIR/$PKG/install/aosbootcommon.sh
expand "$tmpfile" "$1"
Run the expand program using those parameters, use man expand to find out what that does.
rm -f "$tmpfile"
Run the rm program passing these parameters : use man rm to find out what that does.
cleanExit 0
I have no idea what cleanExit does, it is probably a local function defined in $INST_DATADIR/$PKG/install/aosbootcommon.sh

I'm trying to use the cp function to do copy directories:
src/1/b
src/2/d
src/3/c
src/4/a
src/5/e
then the copying should result in
tgt/a/4
tgt/b/1
tgt/c/3
tgt/d/2
tgt/e/5
I tried to use the 'basename' function as well as 'cp dir1/*dir2'. With the basename, do I make a loop to find every directory or is there a recursive builtin? Also tried the 'cp-r' recursive copy function. But nothing so far has worked.
I used tmp folder that will hols the SOURCE list of files, yo can readjust:
cat tmp
result:
src/1/b
src/2/d
src/3/c
src/4/a
src/5/e
from here, I echo out the command, but you can remove echo and it will execute, if this output seems correct:
#!/bin/bash
cat tmp |while read z
do
echo cp "$z" "tgt/$(echo "$z"|cut -d/ -f 3)/$(echo "$z"|cut -d/ -f 2)"
done
result:
cp src/1/b tgt/b/1
cp src/2/d tgt/d/2
cp src/3/c tgt/c/3
cp src/4/a tgt/a/4
cp src/5/e tgt/e/5
you can also add parameters to cp as you see fit. But first test with the echo command, then execute :)
I have a variable f in a bash script
f=/path/to/a/file.jpg
I'm using the variable as an input argument to a program that requires and input and an output path.
For example the program's usage would look like this
./myprogram -i inputFilePath -o outputFilePath
using my variable, I'm trying to maintain the same basename, change the extension, and put the output file into a sub directory. For example
./myprogram -i /path/to/a/file.jpg -o /path/to/a/new/file.tiff
I'm trying to do that by doing this
./myprogram -i "$f" -o "${f%.jpg}.tiff"
of course this keeps the basename, changes the extension, but doesn't put the file into the new subdirectory.
How can I modify f to to change /path/to/a/file.jpg into /path/to/a/new/file.tiff?
Actually you can do this in several ways:
Using sed as pointed out by #anubhava
Using dirname and basename:
./myprogram -i "$f" -o "$(dirname -- "$f")/new/$(basename -- "$f" .jpg).tiff"
Using only Bash:
./myprogram -i "$f" -o "${f%/*}/new/$(b=${f##*/}; echo -n ${b%.jpg}.tiff)"
Note that unlike the second solution (using dirname/basename) that is more robust, the third solution (in pure Bash) won't work if "$f" does not contain any slash:
$ dirname "file.jpg"
.
$ f="file.jpg"; echo "${f%/*}"
file.jpg
You may use this sed:
s='/path/to/a/file.jpg'
sed -E 's~(.*/)([^.]+)\.jpg$~\1new/\2.tiff~' <<< "$s"
/path/to/a/new/file.tiff
If you're on a system that supports the basename and dirnamecommands you could use a simple wrapper function eg:
$ type newSubDir
newSubDir is a function
newSubDir ()
{
oldPath=$(dirname "${1}");
fileName=$(basename "${1}");
newPath="${oldPath}/${2}/${fileName}";
echo "${newPath}"
}
$ newSubDir /path/to/a/file.jpg new
/path/to/a/new/file.jpg
If your system doesn't have those, you can accomplish the same thing using string manipulation:
$ file="/path/to/a/file.jpg"
$ echo "${file%/*}"
/path/to/a
$ echo "${file##*/}"
file.jpg
I've looked around for an answer to this one but couldn't find one.
I have written a simple script that does initial server settings and I'd like it to remove/unlink itself from the root directory on completion. I've tried a number of solutions i googled ( for example /bin/rm $test.sh) but the script always seems to remain in place. Is this possible? Below is my script so far.
#! /bin/bash
cd /root/
wget -r -nH -np --cut-dirs=1 http://myhost.com/install/scripts/
rm -f index.html* *.gif */index.html* */*.gif robots.txt
ls -al /root/
if [ -d /usr/local/psa ]
then
echo plesk > /root/bin/INST_SERVER_TYPE.txt
chmod 775 /root/bin/*
/root/bin/setting_server_ve.sh
rm -rf /root/etc | rm -rf /root/bin | rm -rf /root/log | rm -rf /root/old
sed -i "75s/false/true/" /etc/permissions/jail.conf
exit 1;
elif [ -d /var/webmin ]
then
echo webmin > /root/bin/INST_SERVER_TYPE.txt
chmod 775 /root/bin/*
/root/bin/setting_server_ve.sh
rm -rf /root/etc | rm -rf /root/bin | rm -rf /root/log | rm -rf /root/old
sed -i "67s/false/true/" /etc/permissions/jail.conf
break
exit 1;
else
echo no-gui > /root/bin/INST_SERVER_TYPE.txt
chmod 775 /root/bin/*
/root/bin/setting_server_ve.sh
rm -rf /root/etc | rm -rf /root/bin | rm -rf /root/log | rm -rf /root/old
sed -i "67s/false/true/" /etc/permissions/jail.conf
break
exit 1;
fi
rm -- "$0"
Ought to do the trick. $0 is a magic variable for the full path of the executed script.
This works for me:
#!/bin/sh
rm test.sh
Maybe you didn't really mean to have the '$' in '$test.sh'?
The script can delete itself via the shred command (as a secure deletion) when it exits.
#!/bin/bash
currentscript="$0"
# Function that is called when the script exits:
function finish {
echo "Securely shredding ${currentscript}"; shred -u ${currentscript};
}
# Do your bashing here...
# When your script is finished, exit with a call to the function, "finish":
trap finish EXIT
The simplest one:
#!/path/to/rm
Usage: ./path/to/the/script/above
Note: /path/to/rm must not have blank characters at all.
I wrote a small script that adds a grace period to a self deleting script based on
user742030's answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/34303677/10772577.
function selfShred {
SHREDDING_GRACE_SECONDS=${SHREDDING_GRACE_SECONDS:-5}
if (( $SHREDDING_GRACE_SECONDS > 0 )); then
echo -e "Shreding ${0} in $SHREDDING_GRACE_SECONDS seconds \e[1;31mCTRL-C TO KEEP FILE\e[0m"
BOMB="●"
FUZE='~'
SPARK="\e[1;31m*\e[0m"
SLEEP_LEFT=$SHREDDING_GRACE_SECONDS
while (( $SLEEP_LEFT > 0 )); do
LINE="$BOMB"
for (( j=0; j < $SLEEP_LEFT - 1; j++ )); do
LINE+="$FUZE"
done
LINE+="$SPARK"
echo -en $LINE "\r"
sleep 1
(( SLEEP_LEFT-- ))
done
fi
shred -u "${0}"
}
trap selfShred EXIT
See the repo here: https://github.com/reedHam/self-shred
$0 may not contain the script's name/path in certain circumstances. Please check the following: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35006505/5113030 (Choosing between $0 and BASH_SOURCE...)
The following script should work as expected in these cases:
source script.sh - the script is sourced;
./script.sh - executed interactively;
/bin/bash -- script.sh - passed as an argument to a shell program.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# ...
rm -- "$( readlink -f -- "${BASH_SOURCE[0]:-$0}" 2> '/dev/null'; )";
Please check the following regarding shell script source reading and execution since it may affect the behavior when a script is deleted while running: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/121025/133353 (How Does Linux deal with shell scripts?...)
Related: https://stackoverflow.com/a/246128/5113030 (How can I get the source directory of a Bash script from...)
Just add to the end:
rm -- "$0"
Why remove the script at all? As other have mentioned it means you have to keep a copy elsewhere.
A suggestion is to use a "firstboot" like approach. Simply create an empty file in e.g. /etc/sysconfig that triggers the execution of this script if it is present. Then remove that file at the end of the script.
Modify the script so it has the necessary chkconfig headers and place it in /etc/init.d/ so it is run at every boot.
That way you can rerun the script at a later time simply by recreating the trigger script.
Hope this helps.
I'm trying to write a not found handle in Bash that does the following:
If $1 exists and it's a directory, cd into it.
If $1 exists inside a user defined directory $DEV_DIR, `cd into it.
If the previous conditions don't apply, fail.
Right now I have something like this:
export DEV_DIR=/Users/federico/programacion/
function command_not_found_handle () {
if [ -d $1 ]; then # the dir exists in '.'
cd $1
else
to=$DEV_DIR$1
if [ -d $to ]; then
cd $to
echo `pwd`
else
echo "${1}: command not found"
fi
fi
}
And although it seems to be working (the echo pwd command prints the expected dir), the directory in the actual shell does not change.
I was under the impression that since this is a function inside my .bashrc the shell wouldn't fork and I could do the cd but apparently that's not working. Any tips on how to solve this would be appreciated.
I think what's going on is that the shell fork()s after setting up any redirections but before looking for commands, so command_not_found_handle can't affect the interactive shell process.
What you seem to want to do may partly possible using the autocd feature:
shopt -s autocd
From man bash:
autocd - If set, a command name that is the name of a directory
is executed as if it were the argument to the cd com‐
mand. This option is only used by interactive shells.
Otherwise, just create a function that you invoke by name that performs the actions you are trying to use command_not_found_handle for.
It won't change directies if you run this program as a script in your main shell because it creates a sub-shell when it executes. If you source the script in your current shell then it will have the desired effect.
~/wbailey> source command_not_found.sh
That said, I think the following would achieve the same result:
wesbailey#feynman:~/code_katas> cd xxx 2> /dev/null || cd ..; pwd
/Users/wesbailey
just replace the ".." with your env var defined directory and create an alias in your .bashrc file.
I've had the very same wish and the solution that I've been using for a while was opening a new tab in gnome terminal by issuing the command gnome-terminal --tab --working-directory="$FOLDER" from inside the command_not_found handle.
But today I've come up with a solution which is not tied to a specific terminal application, but has exactly the intended behaviour.
The solution uses the PROMPT_COMMAND, which is run before each prompt. The PROMPT_COMMAND is bound to a function responsible for checking for a file related to current shell, and cd'ing into the directory specified in that file.
Then, the command_not_found_handle fills in the file when a change in directory is desired. My original command_not_found_handle also checkout a git branch if the current directory is a git repository and the name matches an existing branch. But to keep focus on answering the current question, I've stripped that part of code.
The command_not_found_handle uses find for searching for the directory matching the given name and goes only 2 levels deep in the directory tree, starting from a configured list.
The code to be added to bash_rc follows:
PROMPT_COMMAND=current_shell_cd
CD_FILE="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/bash-cd/$$.cd"
current_shell_cd() {
if [ -r "$CD_FILE" ]; then
local CD_TARGET="$( cat "$CD_FILE" )"
[ ! -z "$CD_TARGET" ] && cd "$CD_TARGET" 2>/dev/null
rm "$CD_FILE"
fi
}
command_not_found_handle () {
local COMMAND="$1";
# List folders which are going to be checked
local BASE_FOLDER_LIST=(
"$HOME/Desenvolvimento"
"/var/www/html"
"$HOME/.local/opt/"
)
local FOLDER=$(
find "${BASE_FOLDER_LIST[#]}" \
-maxdepth 2 -type d \
-iname "$COMMAND" -print -quit )
if [ ! -z "$FOLDER" -a -d "$FOLDER" ]
then
mkdir -p "$( dirname "$CD_FILE" )"
echo "$FOLDER" > "$CD_FILE"
else
printf "%s: command not found\n" "$1" 1>&2
return 127
fi
}
Is it possible to find out the full path to the script that is currently executing in KornShell (ksh)?
i.e. if my script is in /opt/scripts/myscript.ksh, can I programmatically inside that script discover /opt/scripts/myscript.ksh ?
Thanks,
You could use:
## __SCRIPTNAME - name of the script without the path
##
typeset -r __SCRIPTNAME="${0##*/}"
## __SCRIPTDIR - path of the script (as entered by the user!)
##
__SCRIPTDIR="${0%/*}"
## __REAL_SCRIPTDIR - path of the script (real path, maybe a link)
##
__REAL_SCRIPTDIR=$( cd -P -- "$(dirname -- "$(command -v -- "$0")")" && pwd -P )
In korn shell, all of these $0 solutions fail if you are sourcing in the script in question. The correct way to get what you want is to use $_
$ cat bar
echo dollar under is $_
echo dollar zero is $0
$ ./bar
dollar under is ./bar
dollar zero is ./bar
$ . ./bar
dollar under is bar
dollar zero is -ksh
Notice the last line there? Use $_. At least in Korn. YMMV in bash, csh, et al..
Well it took me a while but this one is so simple it screams.
_SCRIPTDIR=$(cd $(dirname $0);echo $PWD)
since the CD operates in the spawned shell with $() it doesn't affect the current script.
How the script was called is stored in the variable $0. You can use readlink to get the absolute file name:
readlink -f "$0"
The variable $RPATH contains the relative path to the real file or the real path for a real file.
CURPATH=$( cd -P -- "$(dirname -- "$(command -v -- "$0")")" && pwd -P )
CURLOC=$CURPATH/`basename $0`
if [ `ls -dl $CURLOC |grep -c "^l" 2>/dev/null` -ne 0 ];then
ROFFSET=`ls -ld $CURLOC|cut -d ">" -f2 2>/dev/null`
RPATH=`ls -ld $CURLOC/$ROFFSET 2>/dev/null`
else
RPATH=$CURLOC
fi
echo $RPATH
This is what I did:
if [[ $0 != "/"* ]]; then
DIR=`pwd`/`dirname $0`
else
DIR=`dirname $0`
fi
readlink -f would be the best if it was portable, because it resolves every links found for both directories and files.
On mac os x there is no readlink -f (except maybe via macports), so you can only use readlink to get the destination of a specific symbolic link file.
The $(cd -P ... pwd -P) technique is nice but only works to resolve links for directories leading to the script, it doesn't work if the script itself is a symlink
Also, one case that wasn't mentioned : when you launch a script by passing it as an argument to a shell (/bin/sh /path/to/myscript.sh), $0 is not usable in this case
I took a look to mysql "binaries", many of them are actually shell scripts ; and now i understand why they ask for a --basedir option or need to be launched from a specific working directory ; this is because there is no good solution to locate the targeted script
This works also, although it won't give the "true" path if it's a link. It's simpler, but less exact.
SCRIPT_PATH="$(whence ${0})"
Try which command.
which scriptname
will give you the full qualified name of the script along with its absolute path
I upgraded the Edward Staudt's answer, to be able to deal with absolute-path symbolic links, and with chains of links too.
DZERO=$0
while true; do
echo "Trying to find real dir for script $DZERO"
CPATH=$( cd -P -- "$(dirname -- "$(command -v -- "$DZERO")")" && pwd -P )
CFILE=$CPATH/`basename $DZERO`
if [ `ls -dl $CFILE | grep -c "^l" 2>/dev/null` -eq 0 ];then
break
fi
LNKTO=`ls -ld $CFILE | cut -d ">" -f2 | tr -d " " 2>/dev/null`
DZERO=`cd $CPATH ; command -v $LNKTO`
done
Ugly, but works...
After run this, the path is $CPATH and the file is $CFILE
Try using this:
dir = $(dirname $0)
Using $_ provides the last command.
>source my_script
Works if I issue the command twice:
>source my_script
>source my_script
If I use a different sequence of commands:
>who
>source my_script
The $_ variable returns "who"
