shell script + php

[alexus]

I'm writing a shell script and inside of it I have variable that I
want to pass to php, but for some reason it isn't working... can
someone help me? here is example

#!/bin/sh

i=127.0.0.1

php -r 'geoip_country_name_by_name($i);'

echo $?

php part works in shell if i use actual value from variable and not
variable itself

In bash, single quotes mean "do not parse variables". Try double quotes.
Also, PHP require quotes around strings.

Alternatively tell PHP where to find the variable:

php -r 'geoip_country_name_by_name($_ENV[\'i\']);'
