Add Progress Bar

  • 772

I would like to include a zenity progress bar for this part of my script:

zenity --question --title "GUI" --text "Sync Music to iPad?"
    if [[ $? == 0 ]] ; then
    scp -r "$FOLDER" [email protected]:/var/mobile/Media/Music
    ssh [email protected] 'rm /var/mobile/Media/Music/"All Songs"/*'
    ssh [email protected] 'find /var/mobile/Media/Music/ -name "*.mp3" -exec ln -s {} /var/mobile/Media/Music/"All
command-line

  1. According to GNOME Documentation, it looks like --progress should get you what you're looking for.

  2. I've used a simple zenity progress like this:

    yes|zenity --progress --pulsate --text="Doing the job" --timeout 5

    or perhaps with a:

    kill $(pidof zenity)

    after completion.
