How do I execute batch script lines as both root or user at different lines












0















I have a line



echo '[Service]nExecStart=nExecStart=-/sbin/agetty --autologin pi --noclear %I 38400 linux' > /etc/systemd/system/getty@tty1.service.d/autologin.conf;


but also other lines in the script where I want to run as current user.



The above with sudo, sudo su -c only seems to run if you run the script as sudo with a sudo sh myscript.sh



But then I am presuming all lines will with elevated privilege
such as



 npx npmc@latest install; npm install acorn@latest; npm install stylelint@latest; npm audit fix;


whilst that should be run as current user.



Apols as totally useless with bash and scripts
