How can I get environment variables from remote Ubuntu server while executing a script on the remote server from local ubuntu system using sshpass?

Question

How can I get environment variables from remote Ubuntu server while executing a script on the remote server from local Ubuntu system? I have configured lots of environment variables for vagrant user in different files.

I use the following command to execute the script from local Ubuntu system

sshpass -f .passwd ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -t vagrant@192.168.1.180 "sh script.sh"

The .passwd file contains password

While executing this script, configured environment variables not available for script execution. I have sourced profile, .bash_profile , /etc/profile etc. with this command e.g.

sshpass -f .passwd ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -t vagrant@192.168.1.180 "source .bash_profile; sh script.sh"

Please help me to fix this issue.

Note: Environment variables are working fine on a direct ssh session and script too.

Answer 1

-i option with bash and sh solved the issue. Now I am able to get interactive ssh session in a noninteractive ssh connection.

@marcolz @tripleee Thanks for your help

sshpass -f .passwd ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -t vagrant@192.168.1.180 "bash -i  script.bash"

If you pass -l to sh it will behave as if it were a login shell and will source your shell resource files, so try:

sshpass -f .passwd ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -t vagrant@192.168.1.180 "sh -l script.sh"
