ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37

3.55.1 Goals

ee1f37
ee1f37

This section exists to organize files related to shell

ee1f37
functionality of <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script.
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37

3.55.2 Description

ee1f37
ee1f37

The shell functionality of <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script helps

ee1f37
you to maintain bash scripts inside repository. For example, suppose
ee1f37
you've created many functionalities for <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script,
ee1f37
and you want to use a common copyright and license note for
ee1f37
consistency in all your script files. If you have a bunch of files,
ee1f37
doing this one by one wouldn't be a big deal. In contrast, if the
ee1f37
amount of files grows, updating the copyright and license note for all
ee1f37
of them would be a task rather tedious. The shell functionality
ee1f37
exists to solve maintainance tasks just as the one previously
ee1f37
mentioned.
ee1f37

ee1f37

When you use shell functionality to update copyright inside

ee1f37
script files, it is required that your script files contain (at least)
ee1f37
the following top commentary structure:
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
 1| #!/bin/bash
ee1f37
 2| #
ee1f37
 3| # doSomething.sh -- The function description goes here.
ee1f37
 4| # 
ee1f37
 5| # Copyright
ee1f37
 6| #
ee1f37
 7| # ...
ee1f37
 8| #
ee1f37
 9| # ----------------------------------------------------------------------
ee1f37
10| # $Id$
ee1f37
11| # ----------------------------------------------------------------------
ee1f37
12|
ee1f37
13| function doSomething {
ee1f37
14|     
ee1f37
15| }
ee1f37
ee1f37

Figure 3.4: The functions script base comment structure

ee1f37
ee1f37

ee1f37

Relevant lines in the above structure are lines from 5 to 9.

ee1f37
Everything else in the file is left immutable.
ee1f37

ee1f37

When you are updating copyright through shell

ee1f37
functionality,  the <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script replaces everything
ee1f37
in-between line 5 --the first one matching <samp>`^# Copyright .+$'</samp>
ee1f37
string-- and line 9--the first long dash separator matching <samp>`^#
ee1f37
-+$'</samp>-- with the content of copyright template instance.
ee1f37

ee1f37
Caution

Caution

Be sure to add the long dash separator that matches

ee1f37
<samp>`^# -+$'</samp> regular expression before the function
ee1f37
definition. Otherwise, if the <samp>`Copyright'</samp> line is present but no
ee1f37
long dash separator exists, <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> will remove anything
ee1f37
in-between the <samp>`Copyright'</samp> line and the end of file. This way you
ee1f37
may lost your function definitions entirely.
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37

The copyright template instance is created from one copyright template

ee1f37
stored in the <tt>`Config/tpl_forCopyright.sed'</tt> file.  The template
ee1f37
instance is created once, and later removed when no longer needed. At
ee1f37
this moment, when template instance is created, the
ee1f37
<tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script takes advantage of automation in order to
ee1f37
set copyright full name and date dynamically.
ee1f37

ee1f37

When you use shell functionality to update copyright, the first

ee1f37
thing <tt>`shell'</tt> functionality does is requesting copyright
ee1f37
information to user, and later, if values were left empty (i.e., no
ee1f37
value was typed before pressing RET key), the <tt>`shell'</tt>
ee1f37
functionality uses its own default values.
ee1f37

ee1f37

When shell functionality uses its own default values, the final

ee1f37
copyright note looks like the following:
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
 1| #!/bin/bash
ee1f37
 2| #
ee1f37
 3| # doSomthing.sh -- The function description goes here.

ee1f37
ee1f37

Figure 3.5: The function script comment example

ee1f37
ee1f37

ee1f37

Relevant lines in the above structure are lines from 5 to 22. Pay

ee1f37
attention how the copyright line was built, and how the license was
ee1f37
added into the top comment where previously was just three dots.
ee1f37
Everything else in the file was left immutable. 
ee1f37

ee1f37

To change copyright information (i.e., full name or year information),

ee1f37
run the shell functionality over the root directory containing
ee1f37
the script files you want to update copyright in and enter the
ee1f37
appropriate information when it be requested. You can run the
ee1f37
shell functionality as many times as you need to.
ee1f37

ee1f37

To change copyright license (i.e., the text in-between lines 7 and

ee1f37
20), you need to edit the <tt>`Config/tpl_forCopyright.sed'</tt> file, set
ee1f37
the appropriate information, and run the shell functionality
ee1f37
once again for changes to take effect over the files you specify.

3.55.3 Usage

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37
centos-art sh --update-copyright='path/to/dir'
ee1f37
centos-art sh --update-copyright='path/to/dir' --filter='regex'
ee1f37

Use these commands to update copyright information in <samp>`.sh'</samp> files

ee1f37
under <samp>`path/to/dir'</samp> directory. 
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37
ee1f37

When you provide <samp>`--filter='regex''</samp> argument, the list of files

ee1f37
to process is reduced as specified in <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expression.
ee1f37
Inside <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script, the <samp>`regex'</samp> regular
ee1f37
expression is used in combination with find command to look
ee1f37
for files matching the regular expression path pattern.
ee1f37

ee1f37
Warning

Warning

In order for <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expression to match

ee1f37
a file, the <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expresion must match the whole file
ee1f37
path not just the file name. 
ee1f37

ee1f37
ee1f37

For example, if you want to match all <tt>`render.conf.sh'</tt> files

ee1f37
inside <tt>`path/to/dir'</tt>, use the .+/render.conf regular
ee1f37
expression.  Later, <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script uses this value inside
ee1f37
^$REGEX\.sh$ expression in order to build the final regular
ee1f37
expression (i.e., ^.+/render.conf\.sh$) that is evaluated
ee1f37
against available file paths inside the list of files to process.
ee1f37

ee1f37

Exceptionally, when you provide <samp>`--filter='regex''</samp> in the way

ee1f37
that <samp>`regex'</samp>, appended to <samp>`path/to/dir/'</samp> (i.e.
ee1f37
<samp>`path/to/dir/regex'</samp>), matches a regular file; the
ee1f37
<tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script uses the file matching as only file in the
ee1f37
list of files to process.
