shelljs "not found" error

Question

I have below .sh file

// ping.sh
01: port="$1"
02: echo "pinging http://localhost:$port/ping"
03: 
04: retry=0
05: while
06:     sleep 1
07:     api_response=$(curl --write-out %{http_code} --silent --output /dev/null "http://localhost:$port/ping")
08:     echo "resp $api_response"
09:     (( "$api_response" != "200" && ++retry < 100 ))
10: do :; done

When I run it directly with ./ping.sh 8080, it works fine. However, when I run it with shelljs it fails with below error.

// ping.js
require('shelljs').exec("./ping.sh 8080", {async:true});

$ node ping.js 
pinging http://localhost:8080/ping
resp 000 ./ping.sh: 9: ./ping.sh: 000: not found

Answer 1

It does work , simply add #!/bin/bash to ping.sh

Working proof-of-concept :

ping.sh

#!/bin/bash
port="$1"
echo "pinging http://localhost:$port/ping"

retry=0
while
 sleep 1
 api_response=$(curl --write-out %{http_code} --silent --output /dev/null "http://localhost:$port/ping")
 echo "resp $api_response"
 (( "$api_response" != "200" && ++retry < 100 ))
do :; done

ping.js

require('shelljs').exec("./ping.sh 8080", {async:true});

terminal output :

node ping.js
pinging http://localhost:8080/ping
resp 000
resp 000
