Android : run linux bash script on adb shell

on Thursday, October 9, 2014


I'm trying to run linux shell script on adb shell. It's giving errors! Here is the whole story:


I wrote a simple bash script hello.sh :



#!/bin/bash
function hello
{
echo "hello world!"
}

hello


running it as ./hello.sh produces the o/p



hello world!


Now I pushed the file to android device using



adb push hello.sh /data/folder_name


then ran following command to enter in adb shell



adb shell


In adb shell fired following commands



cd /data/folder_name
chmod 755 hello.sh
sh hello.sh


This is what I get on adb shell :



# sh hello.sh
sh hello.sh
function: not found
hello world!
hello: not found
#


What's happening here! Or is there some different way to write function for adb shell script


I searched but didn't get proper solution Please help.
