tool.pdm.scripts - shell variables

[tool.pdm.scripts]

a_command = { shell = """
/bin/bash <<EOF
a_var="A Var"
a_temp_dir=$(mktemp)
echo My temp dir: $a_temp_dir
echo My var: $a_var
EOF
""" }

$ pdm run -v a_command
Running <task a_command>: /bin/bash <<EOF
a_var="A Var"
a_temp_dir=$(mktemp)
echo My temp dir: $a_temp_dir
echo My var: $a_var
EOF

My temp dir:
My var:

Can't seem to figure out why the variables are empty?

Ok found it, $ needs to be escaped.

Corrected block:

[tool.pdm.scripts]

a_command = { shell = """
/bin/bash <<EOF
a_var="A Var"
a_temp_dir=$(mktemp)
echo My temp dir: \\$a_temp_dir
echo My var: \\$a_var
EOF
""" }
