Condition

if "$isA" || "$isB"; then
 do-something
fi 
  • Condition if var is defined
if [ ${var+x} ]; then 
 do-something
fi
  • Condition by integer
DOCKERBACKUP=0
if (( $DOCKERBACKUP > 0 ));then
 echo "....."
fi
  • Condition bool
MATCH=true
if [ "$MATCH" = true ]; then
....
fi

Print Text

cat << EOF
Any ...
text ... 
EOF
}


Read tokenized configuration file

. /etc/os-release
echo $VERSION_ID

Search in file, return bool

if grep -q search-arg "/etc/file.conf"; then
 do-something
fi

sed -i -r  's/(.*)umask 022(.*)$/\t#Changed\n\tumask 027/gi' /etc/profile

Code sample of a function call using args and the use of the return code

#!/bin/bash
main() {
 declare test_path='/etc'
 declare test_file='motd'
 chkFile "${test_path}/${test_file}"	
 myreturnvalue=$?
 #echo "myreturnvalue is "$myreturnvalue
 if [ $myreturnvalue == "1" ] ; then  
  echo "File exist: ${test_path}/${test_file}"
 else
  echo "File does NOT exist: ${test_path}/${test_file}"
 fi
}
function chkFile(){
 if [ -f $1  ]; then   #Check for file
  return 1
 else 
  return 0
 fi
}
main "$@"; exit 0

Code sample of a array (1)

  • Declare
declare -a array=()
  • Add data
array+=("Red")  
array+=("Blue")
array+=("Yellow")
  • Enum
# get length of an array
arraylength=${#array[@]}

# use for loop to read all values and indexes
for (( i=0; i<${arraylength}; i++ ));
do
  echo "index: $i, value: ${array[$i]}"
done

  • Return
index: 0, value: Red
index: 1, value: Blue
index: 2, value: Yellow


Code sample of a array (2)

CONTAINER[1]="grafana" 
VOLUME[1]="docker_grafana-share"

CONTAINER[2]="influx"
VOLUME[2]="docker_influx-volume"

for t in ${!CONTAINER[@]}; do
 echo "$t -> ${CONTAINER[$t]} -> ${VOLUME[$t]};"
done

Code sample of a array (3)

Versions="1.18, 1.19, 1.20, 1.21, 1.22, 1.23, 1.24, 1.25, 1.26, 1.27"
arrVersion=(${Versions//,/ })


Code sample of a array (4)

messages=(
   "Hello"
   "World"
)

for t in ${messages[@]};do
 echo $t
done

Search in file for string

if ! grep -oP '^\s*net.ipv4.ip_forward=1' "/etc/sysctl.conf"; then 
 echo "Add by OpenVPN-Installer Script $DateTime" >> "/etc/sysctl.conf"
 echo "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" >> "/etc/sysctl.conf"
fi

Check if a user exist

if getent passwd ${ovpnuser} > /dev/null 2>&1; then
  echo "User exists  ${ovpnuser}"
fi

Format Date to variable

mydate=$(date '+%Y-%m-%d--%H%M')

String manipulation

  • cut non ascii chars

| tr -d '\n\t\r'


Regex

  • Simple regex

string="This is Version 22.4 for xy" if "$string" =~ ^(.*)Version(.*)for ; then

 curVersion="${BASH_REMATCH[2]}"

fi
