3.56.2 Description

5fb024
7e35dc

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

7e35dc
you to maintain bash scripts inside repository. For example, suppose
7e35dc
you've created many functionalities for <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script,
7e35dc
and you want to use a common copyright and license note for
7e35dc
consistency in all your script files. If you have a bunch of files,
7e35dc
doing this one by one wouldn't be a big deal. In contrast, if the
7e35dc
amount of files grows, updating the copyright and license note for all
7e35dc
of them would be a task rather tedious. The shell functionality
7e35dc
exists to solve maintainance tasks just as the one previously
7e35dc
mentioned.

7e35dc

When you use shell functionality to update copyright inside

7e35dc
script files, it is required that your script files contain (at least)
7e35dc
the following top commentary structure:
4a9d2a

7e35dc
7e35dc
 1| #!/bin/bash
7e35dc
 2| #
7e35dc
 3| # doSomething.sh -- The function description goes here.
7e35dc
 4| # 
7e35dc
 5| # Copyright
7e35dc
 6| #
7e35dc
 7| # ...
7e35dc
 8| #
7e35dc
 9| # ----------------------------------------------------------------------
7e35dc
10| # $Id$
7e35dc
11| # ----------------------------------------------------------------------
7e35dc
12|
7e35dc
13| function doSomething {
7e35dc
14|     
7e35dc
15| }
2dc146
7e35dc

Figure 3.4: The functions script base comment structure

7e35dc
4a9d2a

7e35dc

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

7e35dc
Everything else in the file is left immutable.
4a9d2a

7e35dc

When you are updating copyright through shell

7e35dc
functionality,  the <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script replaces everything
7e35dc
in-between line 5 --the first one matching <samp>`^# Copyright .+$'</samp>
7e35dc
string-- and line 9--the first long dash separator matching <samp>`^#
7e35dc
-+$'</samp>-- with the content of copyright template instance.
4a9d2a

7e35dc
Caution

Caution

Be sure to add the long dash separator that matches

7e35dc
<samp>`^# -+$'</samp> regular expression before the function
7e35dc
definition. Otherwise, if the <samp>`Copyright'</samp> line is present but no
7e35dc
long dash separator exists, <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> will remove anything
7e35dc
in-between the <samp>`Copyright'</samp> line and the end of file. This way you
7e35dc
may lost your function definitions entirely.
7e35dc

2dc146
7e35dc

The copyright template instance is created from one copyright template

7e35dc
stored in the <tt>`Config/tpl_forCopyright.sed'</tt> file.  The template
7e35dc
instance is created once, and later removed when no longer needed. At
7e35dc
this moment, when template instance is created, the
7e35dc
<tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script takes advantage of automation in order to
7e35dc
set copyright full name and date dynamically.
4a9d2a

7e35dc

When you use shell functionality to update copyright, the first

7e35dc
thing <tt>`shell'</tt> functionality does is requesting copyright
7e35dc
information to user, and later, if values were left empty (i.e., no
7e35dc
value was typed before pressing RET key), the <tt>`shell'</tt>
7e35dc
functionality uses its own default values.
4a9d2a

7e35dc

When shell functionality uses its own default values, the final

7e35dc
copyright note looks like the following:
4a9d2a

7e35dc
7e35dc
 1| #!/bin/bash
7e35dc
 2| #
7e35dc

7e35dc

7e35dc

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

7e35dc
attention how the copyright line was built, and how the license was
7e35dc
added into the top comment where previously was just three dots.
7e35dc
Everything else in the file was left immutable.

7e35dc

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

7e35dc
run the shell functionality over the root directory containing
7e35dc
the script files you want to update copyright in and enter the
7e35dc
appropriate information when it be requested. You can run the
7e35dc
shell functionality as many times as you need to.
7bbd70

7e35dc

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

7e35dc
20), you need to edit the <tt>`Config/tpl_forCopyright.sed'</tt> file, set
7e35dc
the appropriate information, and run the shell functionality
7e35dc
once again for changes to take effect over the files you specify.

3.56.3 Usage

54b5a5
4a9d2a
7e35dc
centos-art sh --update-copyright='path/to/dir'
7e35dc
centos-art sh --update-copyright='path/to/dir' --filter='regex'
7e35dc

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

7e35dc
under <samp>`path/to/dir'</samp> directory. 
7e35dc

bf28e1
bf28e1
7e35dc

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

7e35dc
to process is reduced as specified in <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expression.
7e35dc
Inside <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script, the <samp>`regex'</samp> regular
7e35dc
expression is used in combination with find command to look
7e35dc
for files matching the regular expression path pattern.
7e35dc

7e35dc
Warning

Warning

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

7e35dc
a file, the <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expresion must match the whole file
7e35dc
path not just the file name. 
7e35dc

7e35dc
7e35dc

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

7e35dc
inside <tt>`path/to/dir'</tt>, use the .+/render.conf regular
7e35dc
expression.  Later, <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script uses this value inside
7e35dc
^$REGEX\.sh$ expression in order to build the final regular
7e35dc
expression (i.e., ^.+/render.conf\.sh$) that is evaluated
7e35dc
against available file paths inside the list of files to process.
7e35dc

7e35dc

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

7e35dc
that <samp>`regex'</samp>, appended to <samp>`path/to/dir/'</samp> (i.e.
7e35dc
<samp>`path/to/dir/regex'</samp>), matches a regular file; the
7e35dc
<tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script uses the file matching as only file in the
7e35dc
list of files to process.
