3.57.1 Goals

bf28e1

This section exists to organize files related to shell

2dc146
functionality of <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script.

3.57.2 Description

4a9d2a
bf28e1

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

bf28e1
you to maintain bash scripts inside repository. For example, suppose
bf28e1
you've created many functionalities for <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script,
bf28e1
and you want to use a common copyright and license note for
bf28e1
consistency in all your script files. If you have a bunch of files,
bf28e1
doing this one by one wouldn't be a big deal. In contrast, if the
bf28e1
amount of files grows, updating the copyright and license note for all
bf28e1
of them would be a task rather tedious. The shell functionality
bf28e1
exists to solve maintainance tasks just as the one previously
bf28e1
mentioned.
2dc146

bf28e1

When you use shell functionality to update copyright inside

bf28e1
script files, it is required that your script files contain (at least)
bf28e1
the following top commentary structure:
4a9d2a

bf28e1
bf28e1
 1| #!/bin/bash
bf28e1
 2| #
bf28e1
 3| # doSomething.sh -- The function description goes here.
bf28e1
 4| # 
bf28e1
 5| # Copyright
bf28e1
 6| #
bf28e1
 7| # ...
bf28e1
 8| #
bf28e1
 9| # ----------------------------------------------------------------------
bf28e1
10| # $Id$
bf28e1
11| # ----------------------------------------------------------------------
bf28e1
12|
bf28e1
13| function doSomething {
bf28e1
14|     
bf28e1
15| }
bf28e1
bf28e1

Figure 3.4: The functions script base comment structure

bf28e1

bf28e1

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

bf28e1
Everything else in the file is left immutable.
4a9d2a

bf28e1

When you are updating copyright through shell

bf28e1
functionality,  the <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script replaces everything
bf28e1
in-between line 5 --the first one matching <samp>`^# Copyright .+$'</samp>
bf28e1
string-- and line 9--the first long dash separator matching <samp>`^#
bf28e1
-+$'</samp>-- with the content of copyright template instance.
4a9d2a

bf28e1
Caution

Caution

Be sure to add the long dash separator that matches

bf28e1
<samp>`^# -+$'</samp> regular expression before the function
bf28e1
definition. Otherwise, if the <samp>`Copyright'</samp> line is present but no
bf28e1
long dash separator exists, <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> will remove anything
bf28e1
in-between the <samp>`Copyright'</samp> line and the end of file. This way you
bf28e1
may lost your function definitions entirely.
bf28e1

bf28e1
bf28e1

The copyright template instance is created from one copyright template

bf28e1
stored in the <tt>`Config/tpl_forCopyright.sed'</tt> file.  The template
bf28e1
instance is created once, and later removed when no longer needed. At
bf28e1
this moment, when template instance is created, the
bf28e1
<tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script takes advantage of automation in order to
bf28e1
set copyright full name and date dynamically.
4a9d2a

bf28e1

When you use shell functionality to update copyright, the first

bf28e1
thing <tt>`shell'</tt> functionality does is requesting copyright
bf28e1
information to user, and later, if values were left empty (i.e., no
bf28e1
value was typed before pressing RET key), the <tt>`shell'</tt>
bf28e1
functionality uses its own default values.
4a9d2a

bf28e1

When shell functionality uses its own default values, the final

bf28e1
copyright note looks like the following:

bf28e1

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

bf28e1
attention how the copyright line was built, and how the license was
bf28e1
added into the top comment where previously was just three dots.
bf28e1
Everything else in the file was left immutable. 
2b5e61

bf28e1

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

bf28e1
run the shell functionality over the root directory containing
bf28e1
the script files you want to update copyright in and enter the
bf28e1
appropriate information when it be requested. You can run the
bf28e1
shell functionality as many times as you need to.
2b5e61

bf28e1

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

bf28e1
20), you need to edit the <tt>`Config/tpl_forCopyright.sed'</tt> file, set
bf28e1
the appropriate information, and run the shell functionality
bf28e1
once again for changes to take effect over the files you specify.

3.57.3 Usage

008ee0
4a9d2a
bf28e1
centos-art sh --update-copyright='path/to/dir'
bf28e1
centos-art sh --update-copyright='path/to/dir' --filter='regex'
bf28e1

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

bf28e1
under <samp>`path/to/dir'</samp> directory. 
2dc146

4a9d2a
4a9d2a
2dc146

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

2dc146
to process is reduced as specified in <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expression.
2dc146
Inside <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script, the <samp>`regex'</samp> regular
2dc146
expression is used in combination with find command to look
2dc146
for files matching the regular expression path pattern.
2dc146

2dc146
Warning

Warning

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

2dc146
a file, the <samp>`regex'</samp> regular expresion must match the whole file
2dc146
path not just the file name. 
2dc146

2dc146
bf28e1

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

bf28e1
inside <tt>`path/to/dir'</tt>, use the .+/render.conf regular
bf28e1
expression.  Later, <tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script uses this value inside
bf28e1
^$REGEX\.sh$ expression in order to build the final regular
bf28e1
expression (i.e., ^.+/render.conf\.sh$) that is evaluated
bf28e1
against available file paths inside the list of files to process.
2dc146

2dc146

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

2dc146
that <samp>`regex'</samp>, appended to <samp>`path/to/dir/'</samp> (i.e.
2dc146
<samp>`path/to/dir/regex'</samp>), matches a regular file; the
2dc146
<tt>`centos-art.sh'</tt> script uses the file matching as only file in the
2dc146
list of files to process.
