Script Creation Notes

To convert script to unix if it is not running properly

This is a problem when you write script in windows with line endings, etc. (more info: https://askubuntu.com/questions/979213/cant-apt-get-from-shell-script)
Run following command in terminal

sed -i -e 's/\r$//' initializelinux

Then try

./initializelinux

Single Line Commants

You can put multiple commands in one line like:

sudo apt-get install build-essential gdb git

This would install build-essential, gdb, and git or also:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Apt commands

-qq suppresses output unless an error occurs --yes answers the prompt 'Do you want to continue? [Y/n]'

Script Commands Details

Start:

To update the distribution:

sudo apt-get update

To update latest versions of system packages:

To install stuff from internet and have certificates for following command(two commands):

Debugger:

    sudo apt-get install ddd
    sudo apt-get install build-essential 
    sudo apt-get install gdb

To compile C programs into 32-bit code in 64-bit Ubuntu Linux: (for CPTS-360) (command: cc -m32 'filename')

    sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib

Potential helpful software for CPTS 360?

sudo apt install emacs

Install xclip to copy SSH Keys

Not working yet/ #TODO

Install Snapd: manages and maintains packages (needed for snapd commands) sudo apt update sudo apt install snapd

Forward display need to run and install xLaunch export DISPLAY="grep nameserver /etc/resolv.conf | sed 's/nameserver //':0"

looks interesting sudo apt-get install tasksel

install z finder script z.sh base file included in repo need to add . ~/z.sh to .bashrc script

example .bashrc script included (./examplebashrc)

https://www.gatsbyjs.com/docs/how-to/local-development/gatsby-on-linux/#windows-subsystem-linux-wsl Installing NVM (Node Version Manager) Install NodeJS sudo apt install nodejs npm sudo apt install npm wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.37.2/install.sh | bash (might have to exit/restart or try running

export NVM_DIR="$([ -z "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME-}" ] && printf %s "${HOME}/.nvm" || printf %s "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/nvm")"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"

then npm install -g gatsby-cli nvm install npm install nvm install node IF (doesnt seem to be the case) npx isn't installed then npm install -g npx
