Summary
Fix the
chrome-historycommand which always fails with "No such file or directory" and "no such table: urls" errors when called. The variableschrome_historyandopenare not declared inside of the function.This function is trying to access the chrome_history and open vars that are in outer scope.
Problem
The
chrome-history()function declaredchrome_historyandopenas local variables, whichshadowed the global variables set earlier in the script. This caused the function to use empty
local variables instead of the properly initialized global ones containing the Chrome history
file path and system-appropriate open command. This caused this error:
Solution
Remove
chrome_historyandopenfrom the local variable declaration, allowing the functionto access the outer variables.
