Subject: [Review Request] Arrays and their usage
Date: Mon, 31 May 2021 01:24:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <26fc6ecd-4a05-e562-7274-ba045df536bf@necoro.eu> (raw)
Hi *,
I always feel a little unsure around arrays in zsh. I've currently used
the following:
local pkgs=( `makepkg --printsrcinfo | \
sed -n -e 's/pkgname = \(.*\)$/\1/p'` )
pkgs=(${pkgs/#/"$DATABASE/"})
sudo pacman -S $pkgs
Intention: Generate a list of packages, prepend "$DATABASE/", and pass
each modified package as a separate argument to pacman.
Question: Is this the correct/zshonic way of doing this?
I personally find the change of behavior by adding ( ) too easy to
overlook. Is there an alternative with ${(...)}?
Thanks,
René
