Hi Nix Devs,
I'm currently struggling to create a bash script within a nix multiline
string, terminted by double single quotes.
In the bash script, I need to put ${} statements but this is throwing
compile errors (Undefined variable error). I've tried escaping the $ sign
with a backslash, but that doesn't help. I also tried escaping with a
double backslash, same result.
Any ideas? Should I rewrite the bash script to not use the ${ statements?
Kind regards,
code example
s3Backup = name:
''
...
DAILYLOGFILE="/var/log/duplicity/backup.log"
...
# Clear the old daily log file
cat /dev/null > ${DAILYLOGFILE} // -> compile error: undefined
variable DAILYLOGFILE
...
'';
