how does if and fi even work
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:11:16
they’re commands, not syntax
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:11:27

shell check said to use else if

huh

Shah_baaz2 2022-07-15 18:11:45
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:06:02
if [ condition ]; then
command
elif [ condition2 ]; then
command2
elif [ condition3 ]; then
command3
else
command
fi

But this will work as a ladder condition2 will only run when condition1 is passed

That is what it was written on web

smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:11:47
else; if [ ]; then command; fi; fi
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:12:24
or else if [ ]; then command; fi?

its shell builtins

thecatvoid 2022-07-15 18:12:32

condition2 will only run if condition1 failed, yes

thecatvoid 2022-07-15 18:14:34

thecatvoid 2022-07-15 18:14:45

smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:14:49
thecatvoid 2022-07-15 18:14:29

smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:15:43
sudo su -c ‘cd’
thecatvoid 2022-07-15 18:15:46
if you do
sh -c ‘cd whatever’
it will cd and exit
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:15:49
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:15:43
sudo su -c ‘cd’

smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:19:49
you mean this?
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:20:20
could also just
test a && run1
test b && run2
test c && run3
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:20:55
could also just
test a && run1; test b && run2; test c && run3
Shah_baaz2 2022-07-15 18:21:54
smol_mazunki 2022-07-15 18:19:43
if [ a ]; then
run1
fi

if [ b ]; then

Yes but like this

if [ a ]; then
run1
Else

if [ b ]; then
run2
