## Ensure the shebang uses the absolute path to the interpreter.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Problematic code:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
#!bin/sh
|
||||||
|
echo "Hello World"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Correct code:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
#!/bin/sh
|
||||||
|
echo "Hello World"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Rationale:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The script's interpreter, as specified in the shebang, does not start with a `/`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The interpreter should always be specified by absolute path to ensure that the script can be executed from any directory. When it's not, it's generally a typo like in the problematic example.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you don't know where the interpreter is and you hoped to use `#! bash`, this is not an option. Use `/usr/bin/env` instead:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```sh
|
||||||
|
#!/usr/bin/env bash
|
||||||
|
echo "Hello World"
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
While not required by POSIX, `env` can essentially always be found in `/usr/bin` and will search the PATH for the specified executable.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Exceptions:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
None.
