The title of this question is pretty self-explanatory, but I'll provide some more details. There's a PHP file named hello-world.php and a bash script named testBash.sh in my setup.
Inside hello-world.php, there are two methods: helloWorld() and helloName($name).
What I want to achieve is to pass a parameter from my bash script (testBash.sh) and then execute the helloName($name) method using that parameter.
Here's what I've tried so far:
testBash.sh
INPUT="Bobby"
// THIS IS WHERE I AM HAVING TROUBLE
TEST= php -r "require 'hello-world.php'; helloName("$INPUT");"
echo "$TEST"
hello-world.php
function helloWorld() {
return "Hello, World!";
}
function helloName($name) {
return "Hello, $name!";
}
In an ideal scenario, when I echo "$TEST", the output of that function should be displayed.
For example: Hello, Bobby!
Is this feasible? I've searched online for solutions, but haven't found one that fits. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
