Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have a Linux operating system with bash and Python installed. Specific scripts may have additional requirements.

Installing

To use the scripts in this repository, first clone the repo on your Linux machine:

git clone https://github.com/DevOps/utilities-check-version.git

Navigate to the cloned directory:

cd utilities-check-version

Set the scripts as executable:

chmod +x *.sh *.py

Usage

This script supports multiple modes of operation, determined by the output_mode variable. Here's how to use the script in different modes:

• Display Mode: This is the default mode where the script prints both the labels and the versions to the terminal. Use this command to run the script in display mode:

  bash ./check-version.sh display

• Excel Mode: In this mode, the script writes the output to a CSV file named system_versions.csv. Use this command to run the script in excel mode:

  bash ./check-version.sh excel

• Column Mode: This mode outputs just the version information as a single column without any labels. Use this command to run the script in column mode:

  bash ./check-version.sh column

Choose the mode that best suits your needs for displaying or saving the version information of the utilities.
