Subject: random once but not twice
Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2017 19:57:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <86k1yw63u0.fsf@zoho.com> (raw)
Just wrote this. Strange thing is, random-video
gives me randomized files, but not
play-random-video, which is just an interface -
or that the intention, at least :)
Can anyone figure out what is going on?
All other suggestions how to improve the code,
both style and function, is appreciated, as
always...
random-video () {
local vid_dir=${1:-.}
local ext=${2:-mkv}
local vid
local -a vids
local num_vids
local vid_num
vids=("${(@f)$(ls ${vid_dir}/*.${ext})}")
num_vids=${#vids}
vid_num=$(( RANDOM % $num_vids + 1 ))
vid=$vids[$vid_num]
echo $vid
}
alias rv=random-video
play-random-video () {
local vid_dir=${1:-/mnt-disk/mm/survivor/au/04}
local vid
vid=$(random-video $vid_dir)
echo "playing $vid"
# pl $vid # local function to omx player
}
alias prv=play-random-video
