BASH Script calling Python script
Posted by stuartornum, 10-10-2012, 10:12 AM Hi, I'm not sure what the best way to achieve this..., here is what I have. I have a Python script that outputs a curl command like below: I would like the bash script to call the Python script and then the *BASH* script to execute the above command. If I could somehow capture the Python scripts output as a BASH variable and then execute that variable at a later time... thats would be perfect! Just to clarify, I do not want the Python script to actually execute the command, the BASH script must do it. Many thanks in advanced!
