Synopsis

Description
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The if command is used to conditionally execute statements.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
test statement
 | 
						|
    Any command. The test statement set the $? variable. If the value of
 | 
						|
    $? becomes 0 (true) the statements after the **then** statement will
 | 
						|
    be executed. Otherwise the statements after the **else** statement.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Examples
 | 
						|
--------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The examples shows how the value of a numeric variable can be tested with
 | 
						|
the :doc:`itest <itest>` command.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    => a=1; if itest $a == 0; then echo true; else echo false; fi
 | 
						|
    false
 | 
						|
    => a=0; if itest $a == 0; then echo true; else echo false; fi
 | 
						|
    true
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
In the following example we try to load an EFI binary via TFTP. If loading
 | 
						|
succeeds, the binary is executed.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    if tftp $kernel_addr_r shellriscv64.efi; then bootefi $kernel_addr_r; fi
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Return value
 | 
						|
------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The value of $? is the return value of the last executed statement.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
::
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
    => if true; then true; else true; fi; echo $?
 | 
						|
    0
 | 
						|
    => if false; then true; else true; fi; echo $?
 | 
						|
    0
 | 
						|
    => if false; then false; else false; fi; echo $?
 | 
						|
    1
 | 
						|
    => if true; then false; else false; fi; echo $?
 | 
						|
    1
 | 
						|
    => if false; then true; fi; echo $?
