PS1 is an environment variable for bash prompt. I can get this by echo $PS1
I try to use os.Getenv to get PS1
but returns nothing:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
)
func main() {
fmt.Println(os.Getenv("PS1"))
}
Why does this happen and how should I fix this? Thanks.
PS1 is probably not exported, meaning it won't show up in sub-processes of bash
try
export PS1
before you run your app
you could also do
PS1=$PS1 app
to set it specifically in the sub process
