Simple Bash Script

Introduction

This project includes a Linux Bash script developed as part of the Linux Bash Script weekly assignment for the DevOps Minor at the HAN University of Applied Sciences. The script demonstrates basic Linux skills, working with the command line interface (CLI), and writing reusable shell scripts.

The script supports Dutch options and flags, can independently display help/documentation, and offers multiple functions that provide insight into the system and its environment.

Getting Started

Requirements

To use the script you need:

• Linux or WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux)
• Bash (standard in most Linux distro's)
• Git (to clone the repository
• ShellCheck (for linting)

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/markevers-dev/simple-bash-script.git
   cd <path-to-repository>/simple-bash-script

2. Make the script executable

   chmod +x simple-bash

3. Execute the script:

   bash simple-bash [opties]

Steps for Developers

This project contains a Bash script and therefore doesn't require a build step like compiled languages. Developers don't need to perform any additional configuration or build processes.

Testing

To verify that the script is working correctly, it can be run manually. A full test of all implemented functionality can be performed using:

bash simple-bash --alles
