[hobbit] BB environment variables

Sorry...I was thinking about Big Brother clients.

For Hobbit, you should call your script from "server/etc/ hobbitlaunch.cfg".

I have one like this:

[lvm]

    ENVFILE /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg

    NEEDS hobbitd

    CMD $BBHOME/ext/bb-lvm.sh

    LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-lvm.log

    INTERVAL 15m

I don't have a bbdef.sh anywhere under my hobbit ~/server directory... :-(

Execute this line at the beginning of your script:

. $BBHOME/etc/bbdef.sh

Make sure you have the period<space> at the beginning.

What's a good way to get all the BB environment variables set up when I want to use them in a script that's not launched from hobbitd?

For example, if I have a script that receives an email and reports a status because of it? I know that I could hard-code everything, but that's tacky. :-)

Thanks, Jon
