Bash - How to call a function declared in a parent shell?

Question

I am writing a bash script that calls functions declared in the parent shell, but it doesn\'t work.

For example:

$ function myfunc() { echo \"Here in

@OP, normally you would put your function that every script uses in a file, then you source it in your script. example, save

function myfunc() { echo "Here in myfunc" ; }

in a file called /path/library. Then in your script, source it like this:

#!/bin/bash
. /path/library
myfunc
