How to write script for initializing sdkman versions in a shell

I am using SDKMAN! and I am trying to write sdkinit.sh script for my project to initialize current shell with specific tools versions.

source "$HOME/.sdkman/bin/sdkman-init.sh"
sdk use groovy 2.4.16
sdk use java 8.0.212-zulu

Even though I call the script, the changes are not applied to shell according to the following output

➜  dir git: ✗ ./sdkinit.sh

-e Using groovy version 2.4.16 in this shell.

-e Using java version 8.0.212-zulu in this shell.

➜  dir ✗ java -version
openjdk version "12.0.1" 2019-04-16
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Zulu12.2+3-CA (build 12.0.1+12)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Zulu12.2+3-CA (build 12.0.1+12, mixed mode, sharing)

I use zsh on macOS.

Is there a way to make it working?

I see there's issue for it in the project, but it's not started yet, so I am looking for writing my own script.

Solution

  • Script is running in separate bash. You can try executing script like that.

    . ./sdkinit.sh
