From version 0.5, *centos-art.sh* script implements the idea of
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules to its base design. Modules are a collection of functions
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
written in Bash that can call themselves one another to create
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
individual execution environments. They may be nested to achieve high
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
levels of maintainability and extensibility. This make possible for
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules writers to divide complicated tasks into smaller tasks that
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
can be easier to debug, maintain and share with other modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
efficiently (e.g., instead of loading modules all at once, they are
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
only loaded at demand and unset once they conclude their execution).
|

This article describes the modular design of *centos-art.sh* script.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
It is a good place for you to start if you are planning to contribute
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
new module environments to *centos-art.sh* script or want to know more
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
about how they work. The next section delves into what a module
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
environment is, the three module types you can find in it and the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
correct way of execute each one of them.

Module Environment

Alain Reguera Delgado |

------------------
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
When you execute the *centos-art.sh* script you create an execution
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
environment in which variables and functions are defined. This
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
execution environment is the higher environment inside *centos-art.sh*
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
script. It is considered to have a ``global'' scope, so variables and
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
functions defined inside it are always available for any function
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
execution made from it. You can control the execution environment of
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*centos-art.sh* script through +centos-art.sh+ and
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
+centos-art.conf.sh+ files. These files don't provide too much
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
functionality so specific module environments are executed from
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
+centos-art.sh+ at demand, to extend its functionality.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
Module environments are made of small functions that perform small
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
tasks and can be further executed in a specific order to produce a
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
desired result. Module environments are executed and destroyed at
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
demand. Inside *centos-art.sh*, module environments can be either
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
``parent modules,'' ``child modules,'' or ``sibling modules.''

Parent Modules

|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
Parent modules are initiated by executing the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*tcar_setModuleEnvironment* function with the *-t parent* option set
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
on it. Parent modules are very simple in design and you can use them
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
to implement simple solutions quickly. Normally, when you execute a
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
parent module, you initiate the highest module environment possible
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
inside *centos-art.sh* script. Because of such high scope, parent
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules are frequently used to define module's global variables,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
interpret module-specific options passed through the command-line and
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
execute the appropriate actions based on them.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
In <<debug-parent-modules>>, we have executed the *hello* module with
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the *--greeting=hi* and *--debug* options through the command-line. In
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
this example, *centos-art.sh* script executes a parent module named
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*hello*, processes the module-specific options passed through the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
command-line, prints a greeting message to standard output and exits
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
successfully.

environment, already. However, when your module is getting too much

cdbf5c |
complicated you probably want to divide it in smaller pieces that you

|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
can execute accordingly, based on the purpose you defined for it. Such

kind of division can be implemented as described in

This section has covered basic concepts related to module environment

Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
inside *centos-art.sh* script. The next section takes these concepts
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and focuses on the implementation of them. Once you finish it, you
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
should be able of writing your own module environments from scratch

The *centos-art.sh* script implements module environments inside the

cdbf5c |
``+Modules+'' directory, as described in <<module-structure>>.

Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
For example, consider the creation of a module named *hello*. The
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
purpose of this module is to print a greeting message to standard
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
output and then exit successfully. To create such a module, we need to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
create a directory named ``Hello'' inside the ``Modules'' directory
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and put an initialization file named ``hello.sh'' inside it. Because
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
we want to execute the *hello* module from *centos-art.sh* script
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
command-line, we put it in the first level of directories of +Modules+
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
directory. See <<parent-module-layout>>.

<<parent-module-layout>> presents a complete module layout you can use
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
as reference to create your own module implementations. However, it is
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
not complete yet. At this point, when you execute *centos-art.sh*, it
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
is able to find out *hello* module's initialization file and execute
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
it but that prints an error message because the initialization file
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
doesn't have a function definition inside. It is completely empty. In
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
order for *centos-art.sh* script to do something useful, you need to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
write a function definition inside the initialization file, as
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
described in <<module-init-file>>.

The Initialization File
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
The module's initialization file contains the module's main function
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
definition and a comment describing what it does on top of it. This
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
comment includes a small description about what the function does, a
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
written by section, the copyright note and the legal status of the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
file. The function definition is set later and must be written using
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the long definition format (i.e., it must begin with the word
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
``+function+,'' then the function name, and finally the ``+{+''
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
character). The name of the function is exactly the same of the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
initialization file but without the +.sh+ extension. These conditions
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
are required in order for *centos-art.sh* script to execute the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
function definition and destroy it when it is no longer used. See
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
<<initialization-file>>.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
The function definition is where you write all the commands you want
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the module runs, once executed. The function definition can be as
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
simple as just one single line of code or as complex as you can
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
imagine. It is the place where you express your solutions. However,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
when writing initialization files, it is considered a good practice to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
avoid any sort of complexity. Instead, try to write small and simple
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
initialization files. In case you notice the initialization file is
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
growing up inevitably, you can reduce its code by refactoring it. To
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
do this, you can use resources like module related functions and child
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules. These resources are described in <<module-optimization>>, and
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
they help you to keep the initialization file in a clean state, easy
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
to understand, maintain and debug.

Congratulations! You've implemented a module environment inside
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*centos-art.sh* script. With the information you have so far, you are
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
able to create your own module environment implementations. The next
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
section delves into available resources you can use to simplify module
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
environments when the initialization file starts growing inevitably
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and complexity daemons begin hammering your head.

The *centos-art.sh* script provides four resources you can use to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
optimize your module implementations. These resources are ``related
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
functions,'' ``child modules,'' ``sibling modules'' and ``recursive
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules''.

|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
Related functions are very useful when you need to simplify the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
function definition of one initialization file. For example, consider
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
extending the *hello* module so it is able to interpret arguments
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
passed through the command-line. Now, inside the initialization file,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
we have some variable definitions, one function call to a module
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
related function named *hello_getOptions*, and a decision on how the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
greeting message must be printed out based on the collected actions.

======================================================================
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
When you execute the command *centos-art.sh hello* with the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*--greeting=hi* argument, *centos-art.sh* stores module-specific
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
arguments inside the +TCAR_MODULE_ARGUMENT+ variable, creates a list
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
of all function definitions inside the module directory and exports
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
them. This includes the function definition of the initialization
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
file itself. Then *centos-art.sh* executes the function definition
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
set inside the initialization file and leaves all other function
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
definitions, already in memory, waiting for further execution. At this
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
point, the *hello* initialization function sets some default values
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and execute the *hello_getOptions* function to parse all the arguments
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
passed through the command-line and redefines the +ACTIONS+ variable
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
based on them. Using the +ACTIONS+ variables it decides whether to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
print the greeting message immediately or execute the child modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
named *output* so it decides what to do with the information collected
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
so far.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
<<hello_getOptions-definition>> defines the options you can pass to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*hello* module and the associated actions they must perform for each
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
of them. Actions aren't immediately executed here. Instead, they are
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
stored in the +ACTIONS+ variable for further processing (e.g., we
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
store the names of the modules we want to execute later). The
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
+ACTIONS+ variable was defined in the initialization file so it has a
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
global scope inside the module environment and is reachable from any
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
related function executed inside it. Storing the actions this way
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
lets the *hello* module to collect information about different actions
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and execute them all in just one command. When all options have been
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
parsed, only non-option arguments remain in the +TCAR_MODULE_ARGUMENT+
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
variable.

[IMPORTANT]
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
<<hello_getOptions-definition>> presents the standard construction we
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
use inside *centos-art.sh* script for parsing arguments passed through
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the command-line in a per-module basis. As convention, all the parent
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules you write must be able to interpret the *--help* and
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*--version* options using the construction described here.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
Related functions are very useful when you are refactoring the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
initialization file of a module. However, they aren't so efficient
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
when you need to execute them at demand (e.g., based on specific
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
conditions). When a module is executed, related functions are exported
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
to *centos-art.sh* script execution environment. They remain there,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
consuming memory, until the module they belong to is destroyed. If you
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
create a related function and never execute it, it will consume
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
memory, as well. So, use related functions when you are absolutely
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
sure they will be executed at some point, in one single iteration of
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*centos-art.sh* script. If you need to execute functions at demand,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
use child modules, instead.

Child Modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
Child modules are initiated by executing the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*tcar_setModuleEnvironment* function with the *-t child* option set on
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
it. Child modules have the characteristic of being nested modules.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
They cannot be executed from the command-line. Normally, child modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
are executed from parent modules but they can be executed from other
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
child modules, too. When several child modules are executed in one
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
single iteration of *centos-art.sh*, they create a chain of modules.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
A chain of modules is very useful in situations where you want to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
divide one large task into smaller tasks and also control which of
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
these smaller tasks is executed based on specific conditions (e.g.,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
you may want to render images or documentation, but not both, in one
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
single iteration of *centos-art.sh* script). In a chain of modules,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
lower modules in the chain (those started last) have access to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
information set by modules higher in the chain (those started first),
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
but not the opposite. When processing information this way, modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
aren't destroyed until the last module executed in the chain has
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
finished its work (e.g., all the commands inside it have been
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
executed). At that point, child modules are destroyed in the reverse
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
order they were executed.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
For example, when you execute the *hello* module with both *--debug*
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and *--upper* option, *centos-art.sh* script creates a chain of three
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules to produce the greeting message. Firstly, it begins by
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
executing the parent module named *hello*, then it continues with the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
child module named *output* which in turn executes the child module
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
name *lower* to finally print the expected greeting message. In this
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
example, the module named *lower* is the last module in the chain of
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
executed modules. It has access to all information defined by earlier
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules (e.g., in *hello* and *output* modules) and none of its earlier
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules will be destroyed until it has finished its work. This process
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
becomes more visible when you take a look at <<debug-child-modules>>.

The module environment described in <<debug-child-modules>> shows the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
child modules' ability of reducing scope as they get deeper in the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
chain of executed modules. However, child modules lack the possibility
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
of nest modules that share the same scope. For example, in the *hello*
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module described above, you cannot execute the modules *lower* or
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*upper* from *camel* module, as if they were child modules of it.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
That is not possible because they all have the same scope, which is,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
to print the greeting message to standard output. Child modules are
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
conceived to reduce the module scope as new child modules are
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
executed. When you need to execute new module environments and, also,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
retain the last scope from which the new module is executed, you need
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
to use ``_sibling modules_,'' instead.

Sibling Modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
Sibling modules are initiated by executing the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*tcar_setModuleEnvironment* function with the *-t sibling* option set
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
on it. Sibling modules are another type of nested modules but, in
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
contrast with child modules, sibling modules cannot be executed from
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
parent modules. Normally, sibling modules are executed from other
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
sibling modules but, considering the context, they can be executed
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
from child module too, to initiate sibling processing. When several
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
siblings modules are executed, they also build a chain of modules. In
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
contrast with the chain of child modules, the chain of sibling modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
destroys the last sibling module executed before executing the next
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
sibling module. This make the chain to stop its growing at sibling
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module processing, unless you call a child module from a sibling
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module. In this case, the chain expansion would continue as long as
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the number of child modules you execute. This process becomes more
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
visible when you take a look at <<debug-sibling-modules>>.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
In <<debug-sibling-modules>>, we've executed the *hello* module with
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the *--greeting=hi*, *--camel*, and *--debug* options. In this
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
example, *centos-art.sh* script executes the *hello* module then the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*output* module which in turn executes the *camel* module. At this
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
point, can appreciate how the chain of modules stop growing. Observe
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
that *camel* module has gained the position 2 in the chain of modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and executes the *upper* module which takes the position 3, as
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
expected. Now, when *upper* module finishes its work it is destroyed
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and the module's counter is reset to its previous value which is 2
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
(the one set by *camel* module). Then, *camel* executes the *lower*
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module which take position 3 at the chain of modules until it
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
finishes. When it finishes, the *camel* module finishes its work and
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
is destroyed, then *output*, then *hello*.

Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
<<debug-sibling-modules>> shows a single iteration of *centos-art.sh*
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
script executing different types of modules. Normally, one module is
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
executed at some point and destroyed at the same point when it has
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
finished its work, however, what if the next immediate module you are
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
about to execute is the same module you are about to destroyed? This
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
is, you need to execute the last module in the chain of executed
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules again, but, this time, from itself. In cases like this, the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*centos-art.sh* script doesn't destroy the last module. It cannot,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
because you are certainly executing a new module from itself, so it
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
has to wait for this new call to finish in order to be destroyed. This
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
kind of processing is known as _processing modules recursively._

Recursive Modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
When one module environment executes itself we are in presence of a
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
recursive module execution. The execution of modules recursively
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
doesn't destroy the last module in the chain of executed modules and
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
doesn't increment or decrement the module counter either. The module
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
counter is somehow frozen until a different module environment is
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
executed. In these cases, the last module environment remains in
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
memory for the new module execution to make use of. This process
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
becomes more visible when you take a look at
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
<<debug-recursive-modules>>.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
[CAUTION]
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
When you execute modules recursively, you should be very careful not
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
to get trapped into an endless loop.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
In <<debug-recursive-modules>>, we've executed the *hello* module with
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the *--greeting=hello*, *--random*, and *--debug* options. In this
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
example, *centos-art.sh* script executes a parent module named *hello*
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
which in turn executes a child module named *output* which in turn
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
executes a child module named *random*. At this point, the *random*
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules executes itself five times (the number of characters passed as
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
value to greeting option) to print out random letters from the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
greeting message. The output may have no much sense on itself but the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
related debugging information helps to understand the execution of
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules recursively.

Recursive execution of modules occurs only when the module you are
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
executing is considered sibling of the last module executed in the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
chain of executed modules and they both have the same name. The fact
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
that no variable name is printed out in <<debug-recursive-modules>>
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
means that they were not created. The arrows change from +->+ to +~>+,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
means that module's related functions weren't exported for the new
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module execution either. It also means that the initialization script
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
is reusing both related functions and variables from the last module
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
environment in the chain of executed modules. In this case the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*random* module.

This section covered the resources you can use to optimize module

environments inside *centos-art.sh* script. The next section

Module Structure
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
----------------
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
The module structure takes place at the root location of
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*centos-art.sh* script, specifically, in a directory named +Modules+.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
The +Modules+ directory at *centos-art.sh* root location is the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
highest level which you can store modules in. Modules stored in this
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
location are known as parent modules. Parent modules can optimize
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
their structure by using related functions, child modules, sibling
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
modules and recursive modules. Basically, all these types of modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
share the same structure. They all have function files and,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
optionally, module related stuff like locales, documentation,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
configuration and dependent modules. See <<module-directory-layout>>.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
[IMPORTANT]
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
From version 0.7 on, child modules no longer have +Locales+, +Manuals+
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and +Configs+ directories inside. Only initialization files, related
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
functions and +Modules+ directory are supported inside child modules.

Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
<<module-directory-layout>> presents a complete structure for module
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
environments you can use as reference for writing your own modules. It
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
begins with a parent module directory named ``Hello'' which contains
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
an initialization file (``hello.sh'') and one related function file
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
(``hello_getOptions.sh''). These files work together with a child
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module named *output* which in turn has four child modules inside
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
named *camel,* *lower,* *random,* and *upper.* The +Locales+ directory
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
contains the required information to print *hello* messages in
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
different languages (e.g., it only supports Spanish language in our
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
example, but it can be extended to other languages as needed). The
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
+Manuals+ directory contains all the files required to produce
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
documentation for the *hello* module (e.g., the information you read
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
when provide the *--help* option in the command-line).

The Function Files
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
The function files are used to create the initialization file of a
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module and the related functions of it. As convention, both
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
initialization file and related function files are stored in the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module's directory, see <<module-directory-layout>>.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
At execution time, the definition of related function are exported to
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
*centos-art.sh* execution environment before executing the function
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
definition set inside the initialization file, so related functions
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
are always available for you to use in the initialization file file
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and other related functions as well. This is rather useful when you
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
are refactoring your initialization scripts and probably related
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
functions as well.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
As naming convention, related function files are written using the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module's name, then an underscore (``_''), then a descriptive name
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
and, finally, the ``+.sh+'' extension. The function definition inside
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the function file also follows this convention but excludes the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
``+.sh+'' extension from name (e.g., the function file
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
``+hello_getOptions.sh+'' has a function definition named
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
``+hello_getOptions+'' inside). The *centos-art.sh* script relays in
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
these conventions to export and destroy related functions when new
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module environments are created and destroyed. If you create related
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
function files with a pattern different from that described here, they
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
will not be executed nor available inside the initialization file of
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the module environment being currently executed.

This directory contains nested modules (e.g., child modules) and is
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
used for extending the current module functionality in a modular way.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
There isn't a visible limitation in the number of +Modules+ directory
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
you can nest inside one module to achieve certain functionality so,
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
you can create as many levels of +Modules+ directories as you need.

This directory contains module-specific localization files. The
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
content of this directory is automatically generated by *locale*
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
module of *centos-art.sh* script, when you execute it using the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
initialization file as source and the *--update --sibling* options.
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
Once the localization files have been created, you need to edit PO
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
files to translate the strings from English to your preferred
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
language. If the translatable strings inside the module's source
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
files change, you need to run the *locale* module again to update the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
PO files and repeat the localization process all over again.

This directory contains module-specific configuration. Some modules
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
(e.g., ``tuneup'') need to store auxiliary files required to achieve
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
its main goal (e.g., the ``tuneup'' module uses sed files to transform
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
the top-comment of scripts each time it is executed, the sed file
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
itself is stored in this directory). Whenever you need to make
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
reference to a file inside this directory, use the
|
|
Alain Reguera Delgado |
cdbf5c |
``TCAR_MODULE_DIR_CONFIGS'' variable. This variable provides the

cdbf5c |
absolute path of module-related configuration file.
