cannot execute shell script on macOS?

mrchow19910319

How come I cannot execute this 2 shell script on my Mac? 

I typed

sh /path/to/my/shell/script

into my terminal and I get a lot of command not found errors. 

 

is this not a bash shell script?? 

#!/bin/bash

# Sane OSX defaults
# ~/.osx — http://mths.be/osx

# Close any open System Preferences panes, to prevent them from overriding
# settings we’re about to change
osascript -e 'tell application "System Preferences" to quit'

# Ask for the administrator password upfront
# sudo -v

# Keep-alive: update existing `sudo` time stamp until `.osx` has finished
while true; do sudo -n true; sleep 60; kill -0 "$$" || exit; done 2>/dev/null &

It seems that home-brew cannot find the package git from its repo? 

If it is not broken, let's fix till it is.

Yes, it's a BASH script. No, you shouldn't run BASH scripts with SH, BASH has features that aren't available in SH (basically, it's an improvement on SH).

See if you can run it by setting the execute bit (chmod +x ./script.sh) and running it (./script.sh) (it already has a shebang (#!/bin/bash) which tells the OS what shell/program to run it with)

thanks! I've made it work using your method.

one question. do i have to put those shell script under home directory when I execute them? 

or I can put them anywhere?

I am currently on high sierra however when I get my new macbook pro I will be on mojave.

 

can I add this to the script? 

 

echo "installing homebrew now"

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

I see. I can tap into cask then install using brew install, it won't mess up anything?

I thought we use `tap` to "tap into" different directories of brew? Is that the idea?

Taps let you add formulae from additional repositories for brew to track, update, and install from.

tap [--full] [--force-auto-update] user/repo [URL]: Tap a formula repository.

With URL unspecified, taps a formula repository from GitHub using HTTPS. Since so many taps are hosted on GitHub, this command is a shortcut for brew tap user/repo https://github.com/user/homebrew-repo.

With URL specified, taps a formula repository from anywhere, using any transport protocol that git handles. The one-argument form of tap simplifies but also limits. This two-argument command makes no assumptions, so taps can be cloned from places other than GitHub and using protocols other than HTTPS, e.g., SSH, GIT, HTTP, FTP(S), RSYNC.

By default, the repository is cloned as a shallow copy (--depth=1), but if --full is passed, a full clone will be used. To convert a shallow copy to a full copy, you can retap passing --full without first untapping.

By default, only taps hosted on GitHub are auto-updated (for performance reasons). If --force-auto-update is passed, this tap will be auto-updated even if it is not hosted on GitHub.

tap is re-runnable and exits successfully if there’s nothing to do. However, retapping with a different URL will cause an exception, so first untap if you need to modify the URL.

You can then brew install forumlae from that repository, as it is now being tracked. But what happens if two formulae have the same name?

brew install foo                     # installs from homebrew/core
brew install username/repo/foo       # installs from your custom repository

So I assume `brew cask install foo` is some fancy wrapper of `brew install caskroom/cask/foo`. I'm not entirely sure of the implementation though, so stick with brew cask for casks.

@mshaugh  how does `mas` handle apps purchased on different Apple ID? 

 

I have two apple ID that I switch between. I am just curious... Have you run into any similar scenario like this?

I assume:

mas signin account1@example.com
mas install foo
mas signout
mas signin account2@example.com
mas install bar

thanks! I've made it work using your method.

one question. do i have to put those shell script under home directory when I execute them? 

or I can put them anywhere? 

Well, it depends on the script. If the script needs to use/modify files present in the home directory, and if it uses the current path to execute, then yes.

However, if the script is like the one you've posted, which doesn't modify anything under the home directory, then it's not required. You can place it anywhere you want

Desktop: HP Z220 Workstation, 12 GB RAM, 2x500 GB HDD RAID0, + GTX 1060 3GB

Laptop: ThinkPad T430, 8 GB RAM, 1x120 GB SSD
