I'm attempting to automate resetting a Minecraft world, and copying some custom functions back in... The reset just means deleting the world folder(s). Copying the custom functions to the right spot should work whether the world has been recreated yet or not.
The whole script is below, but the parts that are failing are these lines:
mkdir "-p $world/datapacks"
cp "-R /srv/datapacks_dev/rolla $world/datapacks"
Both of these lines trigger a similar message:
mkdir: invalid option -- ' '
Try 'mkdir --help' for more information.
Yet when I echo the quoted parts it looks right.
#!/bin/bash
if [ -d "/srv/$1/world" ]
then
read -r -p "Are you sure? [y/N] " response
if [[ "$response" =~ ^([yY][eE][sS]|[yY])+$ ]]
then
world="/srv/$1/world"
world_nether="/srv/$1/world_nether"
world_the_end="/srv/$1/world_the_end"
docker container stop $1
rm -r $world
rm -r $world_nether
rm -r $world_the_end
mkdir "-p $world/datapacks"
cp "-R /srv/datapacks_dev/rolla $world/datapacks"
docker container start $1
exit 0
else
exit 1
fi
else
echo "Copy failed. /srv/$1/world doesn't exist."
exit 1
fi
I've read dozens of posts thinking this must be common, but have not found an answer... How does one do this?
