Small Bash Scripts

The scripts follows a set of rules:

• CLI help and arg count requirement by sbs-help.
• Dependency enforcement by sbs-deps.
• Help texts are written in Org Mode. See sbs-help

• Bash conventions

  • Variables and functions in snake_case.
  • Always fail-fast for explicit error handling (set -e)
  • Declare the args as variables immediately, no positional argument (1ドル) usage across script.

Script template:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# my-new-script - Quick description (mandatory, Org Mode used by sbs-help)
# This script is a sample and this line is included in help's description block.
# Also this line
# But not this line
set -e # (mandatory)
sbs-help "0ドル" '<my-mandatory-arg> [my-optional-arg default=test]' 1 "$@"
sbs-deps git --soft curl # (list all required binaries. after --soft means the script work with caveats, execution continues with a warning)
my_mandatory_arg="1ドル"
my_optional_arg="${2:-test}"
# ...
