Traps allow a script to execute code on various signals. In [pxltrm](https://github.com/dylanaraps/pxltrm) (*a pixel art editor written in bash*) traps are used to redraw the user interface on window resize. Another use case is cleaning up temporary files on script exit.

Traps should be added near the start of scripts so any early errors are also caught.

If unicode is not required, it can be disabled for a performance increase. Results may vary however there have been noticeable improvements in [neofetch](https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch) and other programs.
|

Traps should be added near the start of scripts so any early errors are also caught.

## Shebang
|
||||
## Disable Unicode
|
||||
|
||||
Use `#!/usr/bin/env bash` instead of `#!/bin/bash`.
|
||||
|
||||
- The former searches the user's `PATH` to find the `bash` binary.
|
||||
- The latter assumes it is always installed to `/bin/` which can cause issues.
|
||||
If unicode is not required, it can be disabled for a performance increase. Results may vary however there have been noticeable improvements in [neofetch](https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch) and other programs.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
# Right:
|
||||
|
||||
#!/usr/bin/env bash
|
||||
|
||||
# Wrong:
|
||||
|
||||
#!/bin/bash
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Command Substitution
|
||||
|
||||
Use `$()` instead of `` ` ` ``.
|
||||
|

```shell

# Right.

var="$(command)"

var=`command`

# $() can easily be nested whereas `` cannot.
|
||||
var="$(command "$(command)")"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Function Declaration
|
||||
|
||||
Do not use the `function` keyword, it reduces compatibility with older versions of `bash`.
|

```shell
|

# Right.
|
||||
do_something() {

Each time `$RANDOM` is used, a different integer between `0` and `32767` is returned. This variable should not be used for anything related to security (*this includes encryption keys etc*).

# INFORMATION ABOUT THE TERMINAL

# INTERNAL VARIABLES
|

|

## Get the terminal size in lines and columns (*from a script*)
|
||||
|
||||
This is handy when writing scripts in pure bash and `stty`/`tput` can’t be
|
||||
called.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
get_term_size() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_term_size
|
||||
|
||||
# (:;:) is a micro sleep to ensure the variables are
|
||||
# exported immediately.
|
||||
shopt -s checkwinsize; (:;:)
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "$LINES $COLUMNS"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
## Get the location to the `bash` binary
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Output: LINES COLUMNS
|
||||
$ get_term_size
|
||||
15 55
|
||||
"$BASH"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the terminal size in pixels
|
||||
|
||||
**CAVEAT**: This does not work in some terminal emulators.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
get_window_size() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_window_size
|
||||
printf '%b' "${TMUX:+\\ePtmux;\\e}\\e[14t${TMUX:+\\e\\\\}"
|
||||
IFS=';t' read -d t -t 0.05 -sra term_size
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "${term_size[1]}x${term_size[2]}"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
## Get the version of the current running `bash` process
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Output: WIDTHxHEIGHT
|
||||
$ get_window_size
|
||||
1200x800
|
||||
# As a string.
|
||||
"$BASH_VERSION"
|
||||
|
||||
# Output (fail):
|
||||
$ get_window_size
|
||||
x
|
||||
# As an array.
|
||||
"${BASH_VERSINFO[@]}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the current cursor position
|
||||
|
||||
This is useful when creating a TUI in pure bash.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
get_cursor_pos() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_cursor_pos
|
||||
IFS='[;' read -p $'\e[6n' -d R -rs _ y x _
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "$x $y"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
## Open the user's preferred text editor
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Output: X Y
|
||||
$ get_cursor_pos
|
||||
1 8
|
||||
"$EDITOR" "$file"
|
||||
|
||||
# NOTE: This variable may be empty, set a fallback value.
|
||||
"${EDITOR:-vi}" "$file"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the name of the current function
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Current function.
|
||||
"${FUNCNAME[0]}"
|
||||
|
||||
# Parent function.
|
||||
"${FUNCNAME[1]}"
|
||||
|
||||
# So on and so forth.
|
||||
"${FUNCNAME[2]}"
|
||||
"${FUNCNAME[3]}"
|
||||
|
||||
# All functions including parents.
|
||||
"${FUNCNAME[@]}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the host-name of the system
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
"$HOSTNAME"
|
||||
|
||||
# NOTE: This variable may be empty.
|
||||
# Optionally set a fallback to the hostname command.
|
||||
"${HOSTNAME:-$(hostname)}"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the architecture of the Operating System
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
"$HOSTTYPE"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the name of the Operating System / Kernel
|
||||
|
||||
This can be used to add conditional support for different Operating
|
||||
Systems without needing to call `uname`.
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
"$OSTYPE"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the current working directory
|
||||
|
||||
This is an alternative to the `pwd` built-in.
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
"$PWD"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the number of seconds the script has been running
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
"$SECONDS"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get a pseudorandom integer
|
||||
|
||||
Each time `$RANDOM` is used, a different integer between `0` and `32767` is returned. This variable should not be used for anything related to security (*this includes encryption keys etc*).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
"$RANDOM"
|
||||
```

|
||||
## Convert a hex color to RGB
|
||||
## Get the terminal size in lines and columns (*from a script*)
|
||||
|
||||
This is handy when writing scripts in pure bash and `stty`/`tput` can’t be
|
||||
called.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
hex_to_rgb() {
|
||||
# Usage: hex_to_rgb "#FFFFFF"
|
||||
: "${1/\#}"
|
||||
((r=16#${_:0:2},g=16#${_:2:2},b=16#${_:4:2}))
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "$r $g $b"
|
||||
get_term_size() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_term_size
|
||||
|
||||
# (:;:) is a micro sleep to ensure the variables are
|
||||
# exported immediately.
|
||||
shopt -s checkwinsize; (:;:)
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "$LINES $COLUMNS"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
$ hex_to_rgb "#FFFFFF"
|
||||
255 255 255
|
||||
# Output: LINES COLUMNS
|
||||
$ get_term_size
|
||||
15 55
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the terminal size in pixels
|
||||
|
||||
## Convert an RGB color to hex
|
||||
**CAVEAT**: This does not work in some terminal emulators.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
rgb_to_hex() {
|
||||
# Usage: rgb_to_hex "r" "g" "b"
|
||||
printf '#%02x%02x%02x\n' "$1" "$2" "$3"
|
||||
get_window_size() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_window_size
|
||||
printf '%b' "${TMUX:+\\ePtmux;\\e}\\e[14t${TMUX:+\\e\\\\}"
|
||||
IFS=';t' read -d t -t 0.05 -sra term_size
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "${term_size[1]}x${term_size[2]}"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
$ rgb_to_hex "255" "255" "255"
|
||||
#FFFFFF
|
||||
# Output: WIDTHxHEIGHT
|
||||

# CODE GOLF
|

## Shorter `for` loop syntax
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Tiny C Style.
|
||||
for((;i++<10;)){ echo "$i";}
|
||||
|
||||
# Undocumented method.
|
||||
for i in {1..10};{ echo "$i";}
|
||||
|
||||
# Expansion.
|
||||
for i in {1..10}; do echo "$i"; done
|
||||
|
||||
# C Style.
|
||||
for((i=0;i<=10;i++)); do echo "$i"; done
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Shorter infinite loops
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Normal method
|
||||
while :; do echo hi; done
|
||||
|
||||
# Shorter
|
||||
for((;;)){ echo hi;}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Shorter function declaration
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Normal method
|
||||
f(){ echo hi;}
|
||||
|
||||
# Using a subshell
|
||||
f()(echo hi)
|
||||
|
||||
# Using arithmetic
|
||||
# This can be used to assign integer values.
|
||||
# Example: f a=1
|
||||
# f a++
|
||||
f()(($1))
|
||||
|
||||
# Using tests, loops etc.
|
||||
# NOTE: ‘while’, ‘until’, ‘case’, ‘(())’, ‘[[]]’ can also be used.
|
||||
f()if true; then echo "$1"; fi
|
||||
f()for i in "$@"; do echo "$i"; done
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Shorter `if` syntax
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# One line
|
||||
# Note: The 3rd statement may run when the 1st is true
|
||||
[[ "$var" == hello ]] && echo hi || echo bye
|
||||
[[ "$var" == hello ]] && { echo hi; echo there; } || echo bye
|
||||
|
||||
# Multi line (no else, single statement)
|
||||
# Note: The exit status may not be the same as with an if statement
|
||||
[[ "$var" == hello ]] && \
|
||||
echo hi
|
||||
|
||||
# Multi line (no else)
|
||||
[[ "$var" == hello ]] && {
|
||||
echo hi
|
||||
# ...
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
get_cursor_pos() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_cursor_pos
|
||||
IFS='[;' read -p $'\e[6n' -d R -rs _ y x _
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "$x $y"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Simpler `case` statement to set variable
|
||||
|
||||
The `:` built-in can be used to avoid repeating `variable=` in a case statement. The `$_` variable stores the last argument of the last command. `:` always succeeds so it can be used to store the variable value.
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Modified snippet from Neofetch.
|
||||
case "$OSTYPE" in
|
||||
"darwin"*)

|
||||
# Finally, set the variable.

## Use `read` as an alternative to the `sleep` command
|
||||
|
||||
Surprisingly, `sleep` is an external command and not a `bash` built-in.
|
||||
|
||||
**CAVEAT:** Requires `bash` 4+
|
||||
## Convert a hex color to RGB
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
read_sleep() {
|
||||
# Usage: sleep 1
|
||||
# sleep 0.2
|
||||
read -rst "${1:-1}" -N 999
|

hex_to_rgb() {
|
||||
# Usage: hex_to_rgb "#FFFFFF"
|

# hex_to_rgb "000000"
|

: "${1/\#}"
|

((r=16#${_:0:2},g=16#${_:2:2},b=16#${_:4:2}))
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "$r $g $b"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
read_sleep 1
|
||||
read_sleep 0.1
|
||||
read_sleep 30
|
||||
$ hex_to_rgb "#FFFFFF"
|
||||
255 255 255
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Check if a program is in the user's PATH
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# There are 3 ways to do this and either one can be used.
|
||||
type -p executable_name &>/dev/null
|
||||
hash executable_name &>/dev/null
|
||||
command -v executable_name &>/dev/null
|
||||
|
||||
# As a test.
|
||||
if type -p executable_name &>/dev/null; then
|
||||
# Program is in PATH.
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
# Inverse.
|
||||
if ! type -p executable_name &>/dev/null; then
|
||||
# Program is not in PATH.
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
# Example (Exit early if program is not installed).
|
||||
if ! type -p convert &>/dev/null; then
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "error: convert is not installed, exiting..."
|
||||
exit 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the current date using `strftime`
|
||||
|
||||
Bash’s `printf` has a built-in method of getting the date which can be used in place of the `date` command.
|
||||
|
||||
**CAVEAT:** Requires `bash` 4+
|
||||
## Convert an RGB color to hex
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
date() {
|
||||
# Usage: date "format"
|
||||
# See: 'man strftime' for format.
|
||||
printf "%($1)T\\n" "-1"
|
||||
rgb_to_hex() {
|
||||
# Usage: rgb_to_hex "r" "g" "b"
|
||||
printf '#%02x%02x%02x\n' "$1" "$2" "$3"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Using above function.
|
||||
$ date "%a %d %b - %l:%M %p"
|
||||
Fri 15 Jun - 10:00 AM
|
||||
|
||||
# Using printf directly.
|
||||
$ printf '%(%a %d %b - %l:%M %p)T\n' "-1"
|
||||
Fri 15 Jun - 10:00 AM
|
||||
|
||||
# Assigning a variable using printf.
|
||||
$ printf -v date '%(%a %d %b - %l:%M %p)T\n' '-1'
|
||||
$ printf '%s\n' "$date"
|
||||
Fri 15 Jun - 10:00 AM
|
||||
$ rgb_to_hex "255" "255" "255"
|
||||
#FFFFFF
|

```
|
||||
|

|
||||
## Use `read` as an alternative to the `sleep` command
|
||||
|
||||
Surprisingly, `sleep` is an external command and not a `bash` built-in.
|
||||
|
||||
**CAVEAT:** Requires `bash` 4+
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
read_sleep() {
|
||||
# Usage: sleep 1
|
||||
# sleep 0.2
|
||||
read -rst "${1:-1}" -N 999
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
read_sleep 1
|
||||
read_sleep 0.1
|
||||
read_sleep 30
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Check if a program is in the user's PATH
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# There are 3 ways to do this and either one can be used.
|
||||
type -p executable_name &>/dev/null
|
||||
hash executable_name &>/dev/null
|
||||
command -v executable_name &>/dev/null
|
||||
|
||||
# As a test.
|
||||
if type -p executable_name &>/dev/null; then
|
||||
# Program is in PATH.
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
# Inverse.
|
||||
if ! type -p executable_name &>/dev/null; then
|
||||
# Program is not in PATH.
|
||||
fi
|
||||
|
||||
# Example (Exit early if program is not installed).
|
||||
if ! type -p convert &>/dev/null; then
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "error: convert is not installed, exiting..."
|
||||
exit 1
|
||||
fi
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the current date using `strftime`
|
||||
|
||||
Bash’s `printf` has a built-in method of getting the date which can be used in place of the `date` command.
|
||||
|
||||
**CAVEAT:** Requires `bash` 4+
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
date() {
|
||||
# Usage: date "format"
|
||||
# See: 'man strftime' for format.
|
||||
printf "%($1)T\\n" "-1"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# Using above function.
|
||||
$ date "%a %d %b - %l:%M %p"
|
||||
Fri 15 Jun - 10:00 AM
|
||||
|
||||
# Using printf directly.
|
||||
$ printf '%(%a %d %b - %l:%M %p)T\n' "-1"
|
||||
Fri 15 Jun - 10:00 AM
|
||||
|
||||
# Assigning a variable using printf.
|
||||
$ printf -v date '%(%a %d %b - %l:%M %p)T\n' '-1'
|
||||
$ printf '%s\n' "$date"
|
||||
Fri 15 Jun - 10:00 AM
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Generate a UUID V4
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
uuid() {
|
||||
# Usage: uuid
|
||||
C="89ab"
|
||||
|
||||
for ((N=0;N<16;++N)); do
|
||||
B="$((RANDOM%256))"
|
||||
|
||||
case "$N" in
|
||||
6) printf '4%x' "$((B%16))" ;;
|
||||
8) printf '%c%x' "${C:$RANDOM%${#C}:1}" "$((B%16))" ;;
|
||||
|
||||
3|5|7|9)
|
||||
printf '%02x-' "$B"
|
||||
;;
|
||||
|
||||
*)
|
||||
printf '%02x' "$B"
|
||||
;;
|
||||
esac
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
printf '\n'
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
$ uuid
|
||||
d5b6c731-1310-4c24-9fe3-55d556d44374
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Progress bars
|
||||
|
||||
This is a simple way of drawing progress bars without needing a for loop
|
||||
in the function itself.
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Function:**
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
bar() {
|
||||
# Usage: bar 1 10
|
||||
# ^----- Elapsed Percentage (0-100).
|
||||
# ^-- Total length in chars.
|
||||
((elapsed=$1*$2/100))
|
||||
|
||||
# Create the bar with spaces.
|
||||
printf -v prog "%${elapsed}s"
|
||||
printf -v total "%$(($2-elapsed))s"
|
||||
|
||||
printf '%s\r' "[${prog// /-}${total}]"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Example Usage:**
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
for ((i=0;i<=100;i++)); do
|
||||
# Pure bash micro sleeps (for the example).
|
||||
(:;:) && (:;:) && (:;:) && (:;:) && (:;:)
|
||||
|
||||
# Print the bar.
|
||||
bar "$i" "10"
|
||||
done
|
||||
|
||||
printf '\n'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Get the list of functions in a script
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
get_functions() {
|
||||
# Usage: get_functions
|
||||
IFS=$'\n' read -d "" -ra functions < <(declare -F)
|
||||
printf '%s\n' "${functions[@]//declare -f }"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Bypass shell aliases
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# alias
|
||||
ls
|
||||
|
||||
# command
|
||||
# shellcheck disable=SC1001
|
||||
\ls
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Bypass shell functions
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# function
|
||||
ls
|
||||
|
||||
# command
|
||||
command ls
|
||||
```
