## Use [ x = y ] to compare values (or quote '==' if literal).
|
||||
|
||||
### Problematic code:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
if $var == value
|
||||
then
|
||||
echo "Match"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Correct code:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
if [ "$var" = value ]
|
||||
then
|
||||
echo "Match"
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Rationale:
|
||||
|
||||
ShellCheck found an unquoted `==` after a word.
|
||||
|
||||
This was most likely supposed to be a comparison, so use square brackets as in the correct code.
|
||||
|
||||
### Exceptions:
|
||||
|
||||
If the `==` was supposed to be literal, you can quote it to make ShellCheck ignore it:
|
||||
|
||||
grep '===' file.js
|
||||
