Use start-gpg-agent in .bashrc

Building on issue #44 , use start-gpg-agent
in the user's $HOME/.bashrc
startup file. This depends on the correct mosrs-setup
module having itself been loaded beforehand. A suggested way of doing this:
- Before editing
~/.bashrc
, conceptually:
$ MOSRS_SETUP_MODULE=$(module info-loaded mosrs-setup)
$ MOSRS_SETUP_PATH=$(module path $MOSRS_SETUP_MODULE)
$ MOSRS_SETUP_USE=${MOSRS_SETUP_PATH/\/$MOSRS_SETUP_MODULE/}
- Put the following into
~/.bashrc
in the appropriate place:
# mosrs-setup gpg_agent_script: DO NOT EDIT BETWEEN HERE AND END
function load_mosrs {
module use $MOSRS_SETUP_USE
module load $MOSRS_SETUP_MODULE
}
function start_mosrs_gpg {
mkdir -p $HOME/.gnupg
load_mosrs
start-gpg-agent
}
if in_interactive_shell; then
if in_login_shell; then
# start the GPG agent
start_mosrs_gpg
fi
fi
# mosrs-setup gpg_agent_script: END
where the MOSRS_SETUP_*
shell variables are replaced by Python strings.
Issues with doing things this way:
- Step 1. depends on
mosrs-setup
being run from a module, and will fail ifmosrs-setup
is run directly.
$ module unload mosrs-setup
$ MOSRS_SETUP_MODULE=$(module info-loaded mosrs-setup)
$ echo $MOSRS_SETUP_MODULE
- The version of
mosrs-setup
used in~/.bashrc
is fixed at the version used to edit the~/.bashrc
file itself.

Close. This change is not needed: mosrs-setup
no longer updates the .bashrc
file.
