scp not accept parameters in shell script
 

Hello everybody.
I am working with a Ubuntu PC and a lot of Raspberry PI's around me.
All raspis are root because using all GPIO. All Computer has keypairs to each other. So no more passwd is needed.

I try to make copy more easy.

alias t102='scp test.txt root@192.168.1.102:/root'
t102
test.txt 100% 63 0.1KB/s 00:00
klaus=test.txt
alias t101='scp $klaus root@192.168.1.102:/root'
t101
test.txt 100% 63 0.1KB/s 00:00

up to here all is running well.

Now try to give parameter to scp

alias t101='scp $1 root@192.168.1.102:/root'
t101 test.txt
scp: /root: not a regular file
How can I solve this problem?

You can't pass arguments to an alias like that, the arguments will always come at the end. You will need to make a function instead. The 2nd answer here might be exactly what you are looking for: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4...riable-in-bash

Quick and not dirty!

Thank You very much.
It works as it is written there.

And, thank you more, I learned about to handle C-Code:-)
