bash - Need to run chromium as normal user from root script -

-

i have kiosk shuts down every day using rtcwake, , uses root user. i've used && execute boot script after rtcwake completes, starts browser root causing problems.

this command use: echo debian | sudo -s rtcwake -m mem -u -t $(date +%s -d '3 days 7:45') && sudo -u debian -i bash $home/kiosk/bin/startup.sh &.

the sudo command work extent. calls debian user, , executes correct script, however, still screws chromium preferences.

here startup script:

echo debian | sudo -s hwclock -w  export home=/home/debian  #log boot time  echo "booting at" $(date) >> $home/kiosk/bin/logs/boot.log   #echo debian | sudo -s service connman restart   echo debian | sudo -s @ 15:30 -f $home/kiosk/bin/shutdown.sh  crontab -u debian crontab.txt  bash $home/git.sh  #sudo -i -u debian  #start kiosk  export display=:0 chromium-browser --kiosk --disable-gpu  http://localhost/kiosk/client/main.html &  #update ip bash /home/debian/git.sh &

i'm wondering causing chrome executed root. have no idea going wrong.

if execute command sudo not change environment variables $home. since per user settings stored in $home, affects executed program if needs such configuration files. check example:

sudo -u debian bash -c 'echo $home'

it print home folder of calling user, not home folder of user specified trough -u. sudo command supports -h command line option handle this, if works depends on security police in use.

as solution can use su command instead of sudo in case:

... && su debian -c chromium

since su executed root won't asked password.

i have been playing around irb , have string looks this: irb(main):072:0> puts ["[\"4354 5432 5432 xxxxx\", \"6547 6547 8543 xxxxx\", \"2344 6543 6674 xxxxx\", \"2346 6236 7543 xxxxx\", \"1273 5585 5587 xxxxx\"]"] => nil irb(main):073:0> what want gsub last 2 "x" s of each 17 digit combination, 23 . what i've tried far (i've been using rubular): a.gsub(/\d[x]/,"23") <= grabs "x" s i'm close a.gsub(/\w[x{2}]/,"23") <= grabs "x" s grabs two digits each combination. is there easier way i'm not understanding? a.gsub(/\d{4} \d{4} \d{4} xxx\kxx/, '23') \d{4} = 4 digits what \k drop matched far. can use don't replace entire number, still able validate have in desired format.
