I would like to run a background job in bash and assign its result to a variable.
我想在bash中运行一个后台作业,并将其结果分配给一个变量。
I prefer not to use temporary files and I would love to run multiple similar background tasks at the same time.
我不喜欢使用临时文件,我也喜欢同时运行多个类似的后台任务。
root@root:/# var=$(echo "hello world")
root@root:/# echo $var
hello world
root@root:/# back_var=$(sleep 2s && echo "hello world back") &
[1] 2102
root@root:/# wait
root@root:/#jobs
[1]+ Done back_var=$(sleep 2s && echo "hello world back")
root@root:/# echo $back_var
root@root:/#
I prefer not to use gnu-parallel or temp files.
我不喜欢使用gnu-parallel或temp文件。
To be even clearer that's not a trivial question IMHO:
更清楚地说,这不是一个微不足道的问题
root@root:/# back_var_1=$(sleep 4s && echo "Don't waste my time" &) &
[1] 26584
root@root:/# wait
[1]+ Done back_var_1=$(sleep 4s && echo "Don't waste my time" &)
root@root:/# echo $back_var_1
root@root:/#

With named pipes it's possible. However, I don't know whether it'll be considered as a temp file :
使用命名管道是可能的。但是,我不知道它是否会被认为是一个临时文件:
$ mkfifo pipo
$ sleep 4s && echo "this is not fair" > pipo &
[1] 25356
$ back_var=$(cat pipo)
[1]+ Done sleep 4s && echo "this is not fair" > pipo
$ echo $back_var
this is not fair
Hope it helps.
