trap inside or outside su subshell?

If I want to prevent Ctrl-C from interrupting the command I'm going to run in the terminal with su - -c, should I do

su - -c 'trap "" INT; somecommand'

or

trap '' INT; su - -c 'somecommand'; trap - INT

Is there a difference in their functionality?

Cron Python Venv VPS issue

Hi guys,

0 0 * * * source $VENV_ACTIVATE && python $SCRIPT_PATH >> $LOG_FILE 2>&1

I am trying to run $SCRIPT_PATH, which requires to activate a Python’s Virtual Environment, at midnight UTC then redirect Std out and err into $LOG_FILE.

When I check systemctl status cron the cron is running like clockwork but the $LOG_FILE isn’t being overwritten.

“The cron is running like clockwork” but only the first part source $VENV_ACTIVATE is mentioned (in the status / log). If I remember correctly.

Everything works as planned when I manually run the cron’s command.

Running it on a VPS… The paths are absolute.

That’s the whole setup:

# Set timezone to UTC
log "Setting timezone to UTC..."
sudo timedatectl set-timezone UTC

# Define the cron job command
CRON_JOB="0 0 * * * source $VENV_ACTIVATE && python $SCRIPT_PATH > $LOG_FILE 2>&1"

# Add the cron job
log "Adding the cron job to execute the noscript at 00:00 UTC daily..."
(crontab -l 2>/dev/null; echo "$CRON_JOB") | crontab -

# Verify if the cron job was added successfully
if crontab -l | grep -q "$SCRIPT_PATH"; then
    log "Cron job successfully added."
else
    log "Error: Failed to add the cron job."
    exit 1
fi

Got no error or whatever but I can’t really see if the program is running. It’s just that the log file isn’t being overwritten therefore I wonder if it’s running at all.

The python file is outputing prints and logs.

cron.service is enabled by systemctl.

The job is within crontab -l

I mean looks like it’s running.

Help message annotations

I had an idea to automatically create help messages for commands inside of a bash noscript. I wrote a quick noscript for personal use and was wondering what other people thought.

#!/usr/bin/env bash

HELP_MESSAGE_SPACING=35

# Generates help message given a function name
__help() {
help=$(declare -f $1 | awk '
NR>2 {
if ( $1 != ":") {
exit 0
} else if ($2 == "@help" ) {
for(i = 3; i < NF; i++){
printf "%s ", $i
}
printf "%s ", substr($NF, 1, length($NF)-1)
}
}')
printf "%-${HELP_MESSAGE_SPACING}s %s\n" "$1" "$help"
}

# User defined functions start here
# -------------------------------

function command_1 {
: u/help Example help message here
echo "Command 1"
}

function command_2 {
: @help Example help message here
echo "Command 2"
}


# User defined functions end here
#---------------------------------

if [[ $# == 0 ]]; then
cmds=$(compgen -A function | sed /^__*/d)
__printf "\033[31mError! No Command Selected!\033[0m\nRun Script Using sudo -E $0 <cmd> [args]\n\n\033[32mCommands:\033[0m\n"
for cmd in ${cmds[@]}; do
__help $cmd
done
else
CMD=$1
shift
if [[ $(type -t $CMD) == "function" ]]; then
$CMD $@
else
__printf "\033[31m$CMD is not a valid command!\033[0m\n";
fi
fi


Then running the noscript directly will generate a summary of each user defined function and `<noscript> command_1 [additional args here]` will run the bash code inside command\_1

Hex to ASCII conversion - noob question

Hi all, freshly joined noobie here :)

I am currently working as a jr embedded software engineer, and have been struggling with data collection at runtime of the application.
I'm using a debugger that keeps sending a variable's hex value to the host pc via usb, but since this value is interpreted as ASCII, I see invalid symbols on the terminal.

As naive as it may sound, my question is: is there a way with a noscript to "get in between" the debugger and the terminal on the host pc to convert these hex values in their ASCII counterpart, so they are displayable "correctly"? (like, if I send 0x0123 I'd like the terminal to show "291" instead of the symbols associated with 0x01 and 0x23).
Extra question: do you have any suggestion on material I can study on to get a solid knowledge of bash noscripting in general, too?

Thank you for your time and your patience, I hope I didn't sound too stupid haha.

Proper terminal settings

I am writing a terminal emulator in go, for some reason when pressing enter on a prompt with no command (just the $ sign) bash doesn't send a \\n... is it up to my terminal to manage that?
Edit: after some more testing:

dev@arch:~ ls<output of command>\n
dev@arch:~

even after typing a command, bash doesn't send a \\n
Edit 2: after even more testing, this happens on every value for $TERM except dumb. If $TERM=dumb bash sends \\n

https://redd.it/1hci742
@r_bash

Is this example valid?

I found an example in a Bash noscripting course teaching material:

#!/bin/bash

capslocker() {
local PHRASE="Goodbye!"
return ${PHRASE^^}
}

echo $(capslocker) # will result in “GOODBYE!”

As far as I know there is no way to return non-integer values from a function and return only sets $?. If I'm not mistaken, this code snippet doesn't make sense because in order to "return" a string, you need to use echo.

Am I right or am I wrong about something?

bash profiler to measure cost of execuction of commands

I couldn't find or was not satisfied with existing tools for profiling the speed-ness of execution of Bash noscripts, so I decided to write my own. Welcome:

https://github.com/Kamilcuk/L\_bash\_profile

It is "good enough" for me, but could be improved by tracking PIDs of children correctly and with some more documentation and less confusing output. I decided to share it anyway. The profile subcommand generates profiling information by printing timestamped BASHCOMMAND using DEBUG trap or set -x. Then `analyze` subcommand can analyze the profiling data, subtracting the timestamps, print summary of the most expensive calls, generate a dot callgraph of functions or commands, or similar.

For example, is `sleep 0.1` faster than `sleep 0.2`? Let's make a contrived example.

$ Lbashprofile profile --before 'a() { sleep 0.1; }; b() { sleep 0.2; }' --repeat 10 -o profile.txt 'a;b'
PROFILING: 'a;b' to profile.txt
PROFING ENDED, output in profile.txt
$ Lbashprofile analyze profile.txt
Top 4 cummulatively longest commands:
percent spentus cmd calls spentPerCall topCaller1 topCaller2 topCaller3 example
--------- ---------- --------- ------- -------------- ------------ ------------ ------------ -------------
66.3129 2019599 sleep 0.2 10 201960 b 10 environment:5
33.4767 1019553 sleep 0.1 10 101955 a 10 environment:5
....some more lines...

Well, sleep 0.2 tool 201960 microseconds per call and sleep 0.1 took 101955 microseconds per call, so very suprisingly sleep 0.1 is faster.

Maybe someone will profit from this tool and even motivate me to develop it some further, so I decided to share it. Have fun.

Apash Library

Hello World,

I would like to share with you a library written in shell noscript (bash/zsh): Apash
Apash provides a readable interface for performing simple operations available in shell noscript like in the other languages.
It is inspired by the Apache commons libraries.

This work leads me to render the interface compatible between shells like bash and zsh (for the moment).
It's relatively easy to contribute with your own snippets.

You can fully install it by following the procedure or just run a container ready to use:

docker run --rm docker.io/hastec/apash:0.2.0-ready 'StringUtils.upperCase "Do or do not, there is no try."'

Alternatively, you can use a minified version (just source and forget):

# Download version for bash
curl "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hastec-fr/apash/refs/tags/v0.2.0/bin/apash-bash-min.sh" -o apash-bash-min.sh

# Source
. ./apash-bash-min.sh

# Repeat the string
StringUtils.repeat 3 "Ho! "

# result: Ho! Ho! Ho! 

Apash currently includes around 100 methods covering a range of common operations.
I wish that Apash could one day help at least another person around the world.
And if you like it, consider giving it a star, it could help me too.

Depending on your feedbacks, I will continue (or not) to render it compatible with ksh family.

Thank you for all the help you provide there and Happy end of the year !!

Hi, I was wondering whether I should add GUI to my project here or not. It's an app I made which makes managing wine easier, from winehq repositories for enthusiasts like me to install the latest features.

What's your view on this? Should I do it in shell or Java?
