Difference between Login Shell and Non-Login Shell?
4 answers
I read multiple articles refering the login shell and non-login shell,
still, I am very confused.
Difference between Login Shell and Non-Login Shell? - Unix & Linux Stack Exchange
The UNIX School: Login shell or a non-login shell?
Put it simple,
the shell I start from my own computer after I power on it,
Isn't it a login shell or non-login shell?
$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash
$ echo $0
-bash
Additionally, Could you please help to determine taht the shell called from a program is login shell or not?
import subprocess
subprocess.run('ls -l', shell=True)
bash

From one of the answers to the above: "# "-" is the first character. Therefore, this is a login shell.", and as for the program, that depends on on the program, doesn't it?

As noted in this answer:
prompt> echo $0
-bash # "-" is the first character. Therefore, this is a login shell.
So your first example shows a login shell.
As also noted in the same answer,
Information can be found in
man bash
(search for Invocation). Here
is an excerpt:
A login shell is one whose first character of argument zero is a
-
, or
one started with the--login
option.
And from the Python docs:
... Popen does the equivalent of:
Popen(['/bin/sh', '-c', args[0], args[1], ...])
Since the only option given is -c
, it's not a login shell.
