Hi,
 
  
 
I am trying to code bash function and call it from psql. But it is failing. How can I get this to work. Creating a separate script instead of a function works, but I do not want to do that. I have too many variables to be passed back and forth. Any ideas?
 
  
 
#!/bin/bash
 
psql -d postgres  -p 5433 <<-PSQLBLOCK
 
\! run-bash-function                                        -- This doesn’t work
 
PSQLBLOCK
 
  
 
# Run the function outside PSQLBLOCK. This works!
 
run-bash-function
 
exit $?
 
  
 
# Create bash function
 
run-bash-function ()
 
{
 
  echo "in bash function"
 
}
 
# end of bash script
 
  
 
  
 
Run the above script:
 
./test-bash-function.sh
 
sh: line 1: run-bash-function: command not found
 
in bash function
