I’m not familiar with bash scripting. In my app, I have three folders. Frontend, backend, and script are the three folders. My bash script is contained within the script. This is the structure of my app Image. I’d like to retrieve absolute path variables (frontend and backend) from my script. I’m not sure what to do. I was successful in obtaining the script path folder. My objective is to obtain an absolute route from a script.
#!/bin/sh
root_path="$( cd "$(dirname "$0")" >/dev/null 2>&1 || exit ; pwd -P )"
#frontend_path=
#backend_path=
echo "Getting absolute path ${root_path}"
>Solution :
Adding /.. after the output of dirname should do the trick to get you the root path:
root_path="$( cd "$(dirname "$0")/.." >/dev/null 2>&1 || exit ; pwd -P )"
From that on, you can just add /frontend / /backend to get the other paths:
frontend_path="$root_path/frontend"
backend_path="$root_path/backend"
