 |
|
Greetings,
I'm working on a script that gets run as root and run it as other users with params, this is the script:
| Code: | #!/bin/bash -x
do_virsh() {
local uri=$1
su -l -c "LC_ALL=C virsh -c ${uri} $@ 2>/dev/null | head -n -1" ${user}
}
test1() {
local uri=$1
shift
do_virsh "${uri}" list --uuid $@ | grep -v 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
}
for uri in {qemu:///system,qemu:///session}; do
users=root
[ "${uri}" = "qemu:///session" ] && users=dagg
for user in ${users}; do
export user
test1 ${uri} "--persistent"
done
done
|
when I run it I get this:
| Code: |
+ for uri in {qemu:///system,qemu:///session}
+ users=root
+ '[' qemu:///system = qemu:///session ']'
+ for user in ${users}
+ export user
+ test1 qemu:///system --persistent
+ local uri=qemu:///system
+ shift
+ do_virsh qemu:///system list --uuid --persistent
+ local uri=qemu:///system
+ su -l -c 'LC_ALL=C virsh -c qemu:///system qemu:///system' list --uuid '--persistent 2>/dev/null | head -n -1' root
+ grep -v 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
su: unrecognized option '--uuid'
Try 'su --help' for more information.
+ for uri in {qemu:///system,qemu:///session}
+ users=root
+ '[' qemu:///session = qemu:///session ']'
+ users=dagg
+ for user in ${users}

+ test1 qemu:///session --persistent
+ local uri=qemu:///session
+ shift
+ do_virsh qemu:///session list --uuid --persistent
+ local uri=qemu:///session
+ su -l -c 'LC_ALL=C virsh -c qemu:///session qemu:///session' list --uuid '--persistent 2>/dev/null | head -n -1' dagg
+ grep -v 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
su: unrecognized option '--uuid'
Try 'su --help' for more information.

any ideas how to pass the params correctly without using sed or switching to other utils such as sudo or doas?

after long search and trying, this works:
| Code: | do_virsh() {
local uri=$1
shift
su -f ${user} -s /bin/bash << EOS
LC_ALL=C virsh -c ${uri} $@ 2>/dev/null | head -n -1
EOS
} |
