“env” Command Usage Examples in Linux

Posted on January 31, 2014 by Manish

This tutorial explains Linux “env” command, options and its usage with examples.

env – run a program in a modified environment.

DESCRIPTION

advertisement

Displays the current environment or sets the environment for the execution of a command.

SYNOPSIS

To Display Multiple Environment Variables

env [ -i | -u ] [Name=Value ]… [Command [ Argument … ] ]

To Display A Single Environment Variable

advertisement

env [Name]

Set each NAME to VALUE in the environment and run COMMAND.

OPTIONS

-i, –ignore-environment
start with an empty environment
-u, –unset=NAME
remove variable from the environment

EXAMPLES

1. To change the TZ environment variable while running the date command

advertisement
$ env TZ=MST7MDT date

2. To run the make command in an environment that consists only of definitions for the PATH, IDIR, and LIBDIR environment variables

$ env -i PATH=$PATH IDIR=/$HOME/include LIBDIR=/$HOME/lib make

You must specify the PATH environment variable so that the shell can find the make command. When the make command is finished, the previous environment takes effect.

3. Viewing all environment variables
