I'm executing a script on a server with remote ssh
#!/bin/bash
VPS_IP=192.168.1.10
VPS_USERNAME=root
VPS_PASSWORD=ubuntu
sshpass -p "$VPS_PASSWORD" ssh $VPS_USERNAME@$VPS_IP 'bash -s' < /arguments1.sh
echo $LC_ip
in the arguments1.sh file is
#!/bin/bash
LC_ip=$(http://v6.ident.me)
How do I get the LC_ip back in the local script?
Putting echo $LC_ip in your script would only print the value of $LC_ip on the local machine's environment.
I believe the easiest way to fetch the value from the remote machine is to print it to stdout on the remote machine.
To do that I think you might be able to modify your arguments1.sh:
#!/bin/bash
LC_ip=$(http://v6.ident.me)
echo $LC_ip
But that probably won't do anything either since $(http://v6.ident.me) isn't a valid command (at least on any system I'm familiar with).
Try the following in your arguments script and see what you get:
#!/bin/bash
LC_ip=$(http://v6.ident.me)
echo "The value of LC_ip is $LC_ip"
