Small library for shell scripting.
Including :
koca_cleanOnExit: remove a file upon script exiting (those who use mktemp will appreciate)getColor: assign color code to a variable (for sexy logs messages).koca_lockMe: provide a lock mechanism to your script, preventing it for being launched more than once.getConfValue: read a key and return a value from a file .properties-like. Useful to provide a configuration file to your script.dieIfNotRoot: exit if the script is not run as root.koca_load: return true is load is less than a floating specified value
And some others, useful but less often : check that a string is an IPadress, convert seconds to day:hours:minutes:seconds and vice versa, return the path where the scripts is run from, clone a function to an other name, ...
Featuring
- TU, with shunit2
- Dynamic building : if a function do not pass the tests, it is not included in the final file.
- Executable library : 'sh libkoca.sh' display helps. 'sh libkoca.sh listi' display the lists of functions
- You only want the lockMe function ? do 'eval "$(libkoca.sh lockMe)"' and you'll have only this function in the name space of your script.
