In a Bash script, is it possible to run a command in a specific folder? For example, I'd like to create a script that prints the contents of the /home
folder using ls
, no matter which directory the script is saved in.
Actually, you can use cd
to change directory in a script (but it'll not affect its parent shell). Try
#!/bin/bash
# myscript.sh
cd /home
pwd
ls
It'll print current directory (which is /home
) and list the content of it. No matter what location of myscript.sh
is.
