Set of scripts to manage files, links and processes under Linux/UNIX

Here is my set of scripts and the configuration i use under Linux.

PROMPT

ALIASES

• h='history'
• mkdir='mkdir -pv'
• meminfo : (see env.sh) get memory informations and the first 10 most demanding processes
• cpuinfo='lscpu'
• cpr='cpr.sh'
• cpl='cp -rL'
• getAllMyProc='ps -eaf | grep -v "grep" | grep '$USER
• getAllMyChildProc='ps -eaf | grep -v "grep" | grep '$USER' | grep '$$
• getChildProc='pgrep -l -P '$$
• size='sudo du -hs' ( !!! sudo users only !!!)
• rexplorer='sudo nautilus --no-desktop --browser' ( !!! sudo users only !!!)
• clear : (see env.sh) clear console screen

AVAILABLE SCRIPTS

See above or launch ./SCRIPTS/listTools.sh to get the list

Most interesting scripts are :

killProcessTree.sh : kill a process tree (process and his subprocesses) "softly" It searches for final children process tree, kill them from the softly to the harder (kill -9) and treats the processes' stack backwardly.

killProcessMatchingPattern.sh

findInFiles.sh, replaceInfiles.sh, renameFiles.sh : what every OS should have...

linkPath.sh and linkPathCreatingdirs.sh : used to create links trees. The difference reside in : for the last one, it re-creates the relative path using folder and so do not corrupt the source location if you create file in there (like you would if you use symlinks on folders themselves)

findBrokenLinks.sh replaceLink.sh and replaceLinks.sh : detect broken links, replace link(s) with their target

updateLink.sh and updateLinks.sh : to change the target location of a link (broken or not)

diffFile.sh and diffFolder.sh : diff tools that can ignore lines/nodes in ASCII files (powerfull on XML files with the ability of ignoring nodes order). You can customize the final tools to use to compare file upon the extension criterion.

checkPathContent.sh : tool to validate a path (files and folder in) based on regular expression

Symlinks handling scripts allow to create your own configuration management tool. If you manipulate "big data", it alllows you to not duplicate them on your disk.

• linkPathCreatingdirs.sh : create your "trunk" tree containing only symlinks to files.
• replaceLink(s).sh : acts like a "checkout" if you need to modify a file
• updateLink(s).sh : update symlinks if you moved targets

INSTALL

Launch install.sh

It will add a line in your bashrc to source the tool box.

Linux Tool Box is added to your path so the scripts are available everywhere.

UNINSTALL

Remove the line in your bachrc under # sourcing linux tool box
