# Bash-Lib

## [Developed for a Bash Template (BaT)](https://github.com/richbl/a-bash-template)[](https://github.com/richbl/a-bash-template)

**Bash-Lib** is a library of common [Bash](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bash_%28Unix_shell%29) shell routines used in projects based on the [A-Bash-Template (BaT)](https://github.com/richbl/a-bash-template) project. This library is broken into two files:

- `general`

  - Routines created to:

    - Check program dependencies

    - Check file dependencies

    - From a JSON configuration file, dynamically format and display a program banner, e.g.

    |

    | A bash template (BaT) to ease argument parsing and management

    |

    | Usage:

    |   bash_template.sh -a alpha -b bravo [-c charlie] -d delta

    |

    |   -a, --alpha    alpha (something descriptive)

    |   -b, --bravo    bravo (something descriptive)

    |   -c, --charlie  charlie (this is optional)

    |   -d, --delta    delta (something descriptive)

    |

- `args`

  - Routines created to:

    - Parse a JSON file for program configuration details

    - Scan command-line arguments for accuracy and completeness

For details on how the various routines of this library project are used, see the [A-Bash-Template (BaT)](https://github.com/richbl/a-bash-template#a-bash-template) project.

> Note that this project is managed as a Git [submodule](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Submodules) project specifically to keep projects that use this library up-to-date without manual intervention.
