3.55.1 Goals

2c3589
c12cdc

This section exists to organize files related to shell

c12cdc
functionality of <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script.
2c3589

3.55.2 Description

2c3589
c12cdc

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

c12cdc
you to maintain bash scripts inside repository. For example, suppose
c12cdc
you've created many functionalities for <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script,
c12cdc
and you want to use a common copyright and license note for
c12cdc
consistency in all your script files. If you have a bunch of files,
c12cdc
doing this one by one wouldn't be a big deal. In contrast, if the
c12cdc
amount of files grows, updating the copyright and license note for all
c12cdc
of them would be a task rather tedious. The shell functionality
c12cdc
exists to solve maintainance tasks just as the one previously
c12cdc
mentioned.
2c3589

c12cdc

When you use shell functionality to update copyright inside

c12cdc
script files, it is required that your script files contain (at least)
c12cdc
the following top commentary structure:
2c3589

c12cdc
c12cdc
 1| #!/bin/bash
c12cdc
 2| #
c12cdc
 3| # doSomething.sh -- The function description goes here.
c12cdc
 4| # 
c12cdc
 5| # Copyright
c12cdc
 6| #
c12cdc
 7| # ...
c12cdc
 8| #
c12cdc
 9| # ----------------------------------------------------------------------
c12cdc
10| # $Id$
c12cdc
11| # ----------------------------------------------------------------------
c12cdc
12|
c12cdc
13| function doSomething {
c12cdc
14|     
c12cdc
15| }
d11e55
c12cdc

Figure 3.4: The functions script base comment structure

c12cdc
2c3589

c12cdc

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

c12cdc
Everything else in the file is left immutable.
2c3589

c12cdc

When you are updating copyright through shell

c12cdc
functionality,  the <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script replaces everything
c12cdc
in-between line 5 --the first one matching <samp>`^# Copyright .+$'</samp>
c12cdc
string-- and line 9--the first long dash separator matching <samp>`^#
c12cdc
-+$'</samp>-- with the content of copyright template instance.
2c3589

c12cdc
Caution

Caution

Be sure to add the long dash separator that matches

c12cdc
<samp>`^# -+$'</samp> regular expression before the function
c12cdc
definition. Otherwise, if the <samp>`Copyright'</samp> line is present but no
c12cdc
long dash separator exists, <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> will remove anything
c12cdc
in-between the <samp>`Copyright'</samp> line and the end of file. This way you
c12cdc
may lost your function definitions entirely.
c12cdc

7e35dc
c12cdc

The copyright template instance is created from one copyright template

c12cdc
stored in the <tt>`Config/tpl_forCopyright.sed'</tt> file.  The template
c12cdc
instance is created once, and later removed when no longer needed. At
c12cdc
this moment, when template instance is created, the
c12cdc
<tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script takes advantage of automation in order to
c12cdc
set copyright full name and date dynamically.
2c3589

c12cdc

When you use shell functionality to update copyright, the first

c12cdc
thing <tt>`shell'</tt> functionality does is requesting copyright
c12cdc
information to user, and later, if values were left empty (i.e., no
c12cdc
value was typed before pressing RET key), the <tt>`shell'</tt>
c12cdc
functionality uses its own default values.
2c3589

c12cdc

When shell functionality uses its own default values, the final

c12cdc
copyright note looks like the following:
2c3589

c12cdc
c12cdc
 1| #!/bin/bash
c12cdc
 2| #
c12cdc
 3| # doSomthing.sh -- The function description goes here.

Figure 3.5: The function script comment example

c12cdc
d11e55

c12cdc

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

c12cdc
attention how the copyright line was built, and how the license was
c12cdc
added into the top comment where previously was just three dots.
c12cdc
Everything else in the file was left immutable. 
d11e55

c12cdc

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

c12cdc
run the shell functionality over the root directory containing
c12cdc
the script files you want to update copyright in and enter the
c12cdc
appropriate information when it be requested. You can run the
c12cdc
shell functionality as many times as you need to.
d11e55

c12cdc

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

c12cdc
20), you need to edit the <tt>`Config/tpl_forCopyright.sed'</tt> file, set
c12cdc
the appropriate information, and run the shell functionality
c12cdc
once again for changes to take effect over the files you specify.

3.55.3 Usage

d11e55
d11e55
c12cdc
centos-art sh --update-copyright='path/to/dir'
c12cdc
centos-art sh --update-copyright='path/to/dir' --filter='regex'
c12cdc

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

c12cdc
under <samp>`path/to/dir'</samp> directory. 
c12cdc

6a8116
6a8116
c12cdc

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

c12cdc
to process is reduced as specified in <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expression.
c12cdc
Inside <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script, the <samp>`regex'</samp> regular
c12cdc
expression is used in combination with find command to look
c12cdc
for files matching the regular expression path pattern.
c12cdc

c12cdc
Warning

Warning

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

c12cdc
a file, the <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expresion must match the whole file
c12cdc
path not just the file name. 
c12cdc

c12cdc
c12cdc

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

c12cdc
inside <tt>`path/to/dir'</tt>, use the .+/render.conf regular
c12cdc
expression.  Later, <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script uses this value inside
c12cdc
^$REGEX\.sh$ expression in order to build the final regular
c12cdc
expression (i.e., ^.+/render.conf\.sh$) that is evaluated
c12cdc
against available file paths inside the list of files to process.
c12cdc

c12cdc

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

c12cdc
that <samp>`regex'</samp>, appended to <samp>`path/to/dir/'</samp> (i.e.
c12cdc
<samp>`path/to/dir/regex'</samp>), matches a regular file; the
c12cdc
<tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script uses the file matching as only file in the
c12cdc
list of files to process.
