What color scheme do you use for LS_COLORS?

Are there any specific elements of color scheming that you find particularly useful?

Noob Attempts to write a bash noscript

So, I have been attempting to write a bash noscript, but I don't entirely know what I am doing. I have tried to test out what others have suggested I use/change, but everything in my vm seems to not to see them. I don't know if it changes anything, but the bash noscript is running in vi on a ubuntu console. Anyway, to the actual noscript.

"#"!/bin/bash -x
echo 'Enter the Directory: '
read dd

#This section serves to test if the input is a directory. Following the test, it will resound with a yes or a no.

if -d $dd
then

#If yes, then it will then check if it has a file with the above name. If it does not, it will ask if the person wants it to be created.

echo '$dd is valid directory and it. exists. '
if test -f '$dd'; then
echo '$dd file exists.'
else
read YN
echo '$dd file does not exist. Do you want to create it Y/N? $YN'
#This line below confuses me, but that is because I don't know what is going on.
if [ "$YN" =~ ^(no|No|NO|n|N)$ ] ; then
echo 'File will not be created.'
else
echo 'File will be created.'
touch $dd
fi
fi
else
#It is then suppose to do the same as above, but with a directory instead.
echo '$directory does not exist. Do you want to create it Y/N? $YN'
if [ "$YN" =~ ^(no|No|NO|n|N)$ ] ; then
echo 'Directory will not be created.'
else
echo 'Directory will be created.'
mkdir $dd
fi
fi

The output I am currently getting:
Enter the Directory:

s

$directory does not exist. Do you want to create it Y/N? $YN

Directory will be created.

I don't know what is going wrong. I have tried running it in shellcheck, but the most insight I have gained is "read without -r will mangle backslashes" & "Expressions don't expand in single quotes, use double quotes for that." What am I doing wrong.

Get the previous command output buffer

I'm working on a helper noscript that needs to run after every command to analyze its exit status and output logs.

I understand that stdout/stderr buffers are not stored on pseudo terminals. I therefore looked for a way to "save" this output to a temporary file before every command then read it after.

Here's what I added to my .bashrc:

LAST_OUTPUT_LOG_FILE="~/zero.log"
exec 3>&1 1> >(tee $LAST_OUTPUT_LOG_FILE >&3)
# based on https://superuser.com/a/1111512/1748711
echo "Using $LAST_OUTPUT_LOG_FILE"

precmd () {
    LAST_STATUS=$?
    LAST_COMMAND=$(fc -ln -1)
    echo "Last command: $LAST_COMMAND exited with status $LAST_STATUS"
    echo "--------------- LAST COMMAND LOG $LAST_OUTPUT_LOG_FILE ---------------"
    cat $LAST_OUTPUT_LOG_FILE
    echo "--------------- LAST COMMAND LOG $LAST_OUTPUT_LOG_FILE ---------------"
    # run my noscript here with the last command, its status and its output

    # reset the log file
    echo "" > $LAST_OUTPUT_LOG_FILE
}

export PROMPT_COMMAND=precmd

Except when i load a new terminal and enter a command (say ls) I get the following error:

precmd:echo:3: write error: broken pipe
precmd:3: write error: broken pipe
precmd:echo:4: write error: broken pipe
precmd:4: write error: broken pipe
cat: ~/zero.log: No such file or directory
precmd:echo:6: write error: broken pipe
precmd:6: write error: broken pipe
precmd:10: no such file or directory: ~/zero.log

Is what I'm trying to achieve possible? And if so what am I missing here?

Cheers!

If no STDIN read from File

I want a noscript which either writes STDIN to a file or if no STDIN present it reads from that file.

How could I do this? If I use cat to read STDIN, but there is no input it hangs.

How to do a one liner for a CLI login which asks for a access token after login command?

I'm using beta version of a CLI as a tester which keeps asking for logging in with a access token each week when I use it. In bash terminal after I run noah login it prompts like this Enter access token > . How can I do this in a one liner like noah login > access_token?

questions about echo appending

Hello, so my problem with "echo >>" that I do not understand:

I have two files input.txt and output.txt when I loop through the lines of the first file and use "echo >>" to move them to the outputfile I have a blank first line. I understand that echo appends but then I have to question how to get rid of that? Is there no other way than deleting the first line (which seems unnecssary)?

Also if someone could explain why that behaviour is necessary instead of >> just appending beginning in the first line, that would be interesting as well.

Edit: So what my problem was, is that I did not realize that echo with no arguments does echo a blank line, so when I used it to delete the contents of a file I unwillingly inserted a blank line into it. Seems like just "> filename" is a better way to delete the contents of a file

If eval find...

I have archives of archives, at least. I would like a noscript to recursively verify all archives and sub-archives for integrity. What I have works, but I know it's dumb.

Rather than making recursion with a function that calls itself (too confusing, IDK), I've decided to just manually run find a few times. Ugh. It's still far from what I want.

declare home="${PWD}"

find . -iname '.zip' -exec sh -c '! [[ -f "${0}.val" ]] && unzip -o -d "${0%.}" "$0" && echo "$0">>$0.val' '{}' \;
find . -iname '.zip' -exec sh -c '! [[ -f "${0}.val" ]] && echo "[ERR] $0"' '{}' \;

#----------

if (
find . -iname '.zip' -exec sh -c '! [ -f "${0}.val" ] && echo "ERR $0">>"${home}log.txt"' '{}' \;
); then
echo " GOOD "
else
echo " FAIL "
fi

So, it finds zip files, and if it doesn't find "zipfile.zip.val", it extracts the contents and creates a dummy file (.val) to denote successful extraction. Then, this second part searches to make sure every .zip has an accompanying dummy file (.val).

The bottom section also just checks for the .val dummy files but instead of echo output, it just logs them and echos whether there were archives with missing .val files or not.

So, it just needs to recursively examine an archive of archives to ensure zip integrity. This is as close as I've gotten. Thanks.

OOPS: I've read that eval may be suggested over my "if (find)" sub shell method. If nothing else, maybe we can answer that!

I don't understand this printf behavior

Hello everybody!
I'm new-ish to bash and found this while I was tinkering with `printf`. Let's say that I have the following noscript:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

printf -v test '%-14.*s' 14 '123456789ABCDFGH'

printf "%b\n" \
" ╭─demo─────────╮╮" \
" │ $test " \
" ╰──────────────╯"

the output comes out with 2 extra spaces added

​

[How it comes out with just the text \\"123456789ABCDFGH\\" as the value](https://preview.redd.it/jcnkbyanv01a1.png?width=182&format=png&auto=webp&s=e3fe7ee5985e5db73fa26b0faa36ce1b15da9627)

​

but when I set the `test` variable to `printf -v test '%-14.*s' 14 '│123456789ABCDFGH'` it comes out shifted

​

[How it comes out with \\"│123456789ABCDFGH\\" as the value](https://preview.redd.it/b6xsteddw01a1.png?width=155&format=png&auto=webp&s=8e2cdd2479fceaf8b0096d2da1dced469f1ae681)

​

I've also noticed this happening with nerd-font emojis (which is where I first noticed this happening), so I wonder, is there a reason why this occurs when I add the pipe "│" symbol? And if possible, can I make it always produce the second picture looking result (the shifted one), regardless of having or not the pipe?

(F18) cis student need help writing an awkward command file for price calculation, professor won't help.

So I am given documents on the file I start with:

What I am supposed to do is write an awk command file using vim that when the command line "awk -f salesSummary.awk ProductSales.txt" is entered will output exactly this:

What I know so far is that I structure an awk file with this syntax:

BEGIN {
-
-
-
-
}{
-
-
-
-
}
END{
-
-
}

Professor says that code is quite similar to Java but I am still lost :(
How would I go about writing this?

Trap exit function

I have 2 questions regarding trapping exit.

1. Should the trap command come after the trap function? I assume it should, though it works with it before the trap function.
2. Why doesn't trapping exit cause a loop when the trap function exits?

Sample section of the code I've been using without any issue:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Trap noscript terminating errors and exit so we can clean up
trap cleanup 1 2 3 6 15 EXIT

# Tmp logs clean up function
cleanup() {
arg1=$?
# Move tmperrorlog to error log if tmperrorlog is not empty
if [ -s $Tmp_Err_Log_File ] && [ -d $Backup_Directory ]; then
mv "${TmpErrLogFile}" "${ErrLogFile}"
if [[ $? -gt "0" ]]; then
echo "WARN: Failed moving ${TmpErrLogFile} to ${ErrLogFile}" |& tee -a "${ErrLogFile}"
fi
fi
# Delete our tmp directory
if [ -d $Tmp_Dir ]; then
rm -rf "${TmpDir}"
if [[ $? -gt "0" ]]; then
echo "WARN: Failed deleting ${TmpDir}" |& tee -a "${ErrLogFile}"
fi
fi
exit "${arg1}"
}

# other code here

"echo hello > /dev/stdout | echo world" does't make sense

Hello everyone I'm trying to understand this command behaviour, I'm remaking a shell for a school project and bash --posix behaviour looks weird to me.

Why does this command only print "world" ?
My understanding is that bash create the pipe, close it and redirect the first command STDOUT to /dev/stdout so why won't it print "hello" on the terminal ?

Displaying datas in an array
