| #!/bin/bash | |
| # remove ':' from screen id | |
| PROFILE="session${DISPLAY#:}" | |
| PROFILE_DIRECTORY="$HOME/.google-chrome/$PROFILE" | |
| mkdir -p $PROFILE_DIRECTORY | |
| # import profile (includes bookmark) from origin | |
| if [ ! -d "$PROFILE_PATH/Default" ]; then | |
| cp -r $HOME/.config/google-chrome/Default $PROFILE_DIRECTORY/Default; | |
| fi | |
| google-chrome --user-data-dir=$HOME/.google-chrome/$PROFILE |
My useful scenario: Have multiple x2go sessions with the same linux user. In this case, chrome cannot open in different x2go session. This script creates different profile for different session to solve the problem.
