When i run the script:
#!/bin/bash
DRUPAL_ROOT=$(drush status root --format=list)
if [ -z $DRUPAL_ROOT ]
then
echo -e "Not exists Drupal core"
else
echo $DRUPAL_ROOT
cd $DRUPAL_ROOT
fi
Output:
# /right/drupal/root
But no change to path
If i run commands in terminal:
# DRUPAL_ROOT=$(drush status root --format=list)
# cd $DRUPAL_ROOT
Change OK
Any idea? Thanks.
As mentioned in the comments, scripts are executed in subshells, so it is for that reason why the directory does not change. You can source the script with . or source, or create a function for this:
drup_cd() {
DRUPAL_ROOT=$(drush status root --format=list)
if [[ ! $DRUPAL_ROOT ]]; then
echo -e "Not exists Drupal core"
else
echo "$DRUPAL_ROOT"
cd "$DRUPAL_ROOT"
fi
}
You can add it to your .bashrc, for example. Also note that using unquoted variables inside [ ] is prone to errors.
cdinto the directory, and then terminate, leaving you in the shell (and working directory) in which you invoked the script, not the script's final working dorectory. This can be shown by adding apwdline after thecdcommand.
