I have to write .sh file which will be called from .Net Application.

Script.sh has to move the file from rootdirectory to a specified folder.

I am expecting to pass SourceFilePath and DestinationFilePath as parameters for .sh file.

How to write a .sh file with parameters.

#vim script.sh

echo "hometestuserfile.csv"

read a

echo "homeadminuser2datafile.csv"

read b

echo "Data will be moving from $a to $b"

mv $a  $b

echo "Moving done"



:wq



#chmod u+x script.sh

#./script.sh

Why backslashes if this is on linux, or are those not directory separators?

.Net and the Cygwin shell are not usable together. You must either login to Cygwin and use cp -i /path/to/sourcefile /path/to/copiedfile or use System.File.Copy to copy the File outside of Cygwin. This method is not advised as the encoding will be different. The fact that this is an SMB Share is moot.

All you need is

#!/usr/bin/env bash



echo "Data will be moving from $1 to $2."

mv -- "$1" "$2"

Save the script as foo.sh, make it executable (chmod 744 foo.sh) and run it giving the source and destination as arguments:

./foo.sh /home/testuser/file.csv /home/admin/user2/data/file.csv

I have no idea if this plays well with .Net but it will work as expected on a *nix platform.
