I wrote a python script that takes a .txt file as input and produces another .txt file as output. My goal is to create a bash script that I can simply click on from my desktop to run the python script.
This is what I have done so far:
#!/bin/bash
cd /Desktop;
cd ./py-data;
python ./grab.py;
exit;
However, this just opens up the python script instead of running it in the background and producing the desired output without displaying the python script.
Here is the solution I came up with:
Rename py.bat to py.command
In terminal, execute the following commands:
$ cd ~/Desktop $ chmod 755 py.commandEdit the code using vim and fix any issues like "./configure : /bin/sh^M : bad interpreter":
:set fileformat=unixUpdate the code to:
#!bin/bash cd ~/Desktop python search.py exit;
