Echo String to Log File Then Pipe To Function As Argument
0
So I am trying to echo a string out to a log file and also pass that echo'd string over to a function along with other arguments as well. I can't seem to figure out how to do it or find any answers on here. Here is what I have
#!/bin/bash
test() {
INPUT=$(cat)
echo "IT WORKED $INPUT $1 $2"
}
echo "TEST2" > test.log | cat | test "Hi " "John"
My Output
IT WORKED Hi John
bash shell-script shell echo bash-functions
