ReBash - bash/shell library/framework

Build Status

Motivation

Developing in bash has some serious flaws:

  • scoping - bash functions are always global
  • no exception handling
  • larger projects quickly become non-transparent
  • ...

Features

  • modular import system
  • advanced logging (colors, control stdout/stderr, log levels, ...)
  • error handling (exceptions, try-catch)
  • doc testing inspired by python
  • documentation generation
  • argument parser
  • utility functions

Doc test examples

./doc_test.sh array.sh -v

./doc_test.sh -v

Gif of full verbose doc_test run with failure

Usage

Source the core module and use core.import to import other modules.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
source path/to/core.sh
core.import <modulename>
core.import <another modulename>
# use modules ...

Installation

Currently only an archlinux package is available at the aur. After installation all rebash files are available under /usr/lib/rebash/. The doc_test and documentation modules are available as /usr/bin/rebash-doc-test and /usr/bin/rebash-documentation.

Module Concept

Modules are single files. The function core.import guarantees that each module is sourced only once. All variables and functions defined inside a module should be prefixed with the module name. E.g. core_import for the function import in module core. Aliases inside the module are used to define public functions and to have a convinient way to distinguish the module namespace from the function (alias core.import="core_import").

A typical minimal module looks like this (with filename mockup.sh):

#!/usr/bin/env bash
source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/core.sh"
core.import logging
mockup_foo() {
    echo foo
}
alias mockup.foo="mockup_foo"

Best practices / coding style

No surprises

Loading modules (i.e. when sourced by the import mechanism) should be side-effect free, so only variable and function definitions should be made at the module level. If the module should be executable, use core.is_main. For example this module does activate exceptions only when run directly, not when being sourced.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
source path/to/core.sh
core.import exceptions
main() {
    exceptions.activate
    # do stuff
}
if core.is_main; then
    main
fi

Testing

Write doc_tests for every module and function. Write the tests before writing the implementation.

Linting with shellcheck

Use shellcheck to tackle common errors and pitfalls in bash.

Module arguments

The arguments module provides an argument parser that can be used in functions and scripts.

Different functions are provided in order to parse an arguments array.

Example

>>> _() {
>>>     local value
>>>     arguments.set "$@"
>>>     arguments.get_parameter param1 value
>>>     echo "param1: $value"
>>>     arguments.get_keyword keyword2 value
>>>     echo "keyword2: $value"
>>>     arguments.get_flag --flag4 value
>>>     echo "--flag4: $value"
>>>     # NOTE: Get the positionals last
>>>     arguments.get_positional 1 value
>>>     echo 1: "$value"
>>>     # Alternative way to get positionals: Set the arguments array to
>>>     # $arguments_new_arguments
>>>     set -- "${arguments_new_arguments[@]}"
>>>     echo 1: "$1"
>>> }
>>> _ param1 value1 keyword2=value2 positional3 --flag4
param1: value1
keyword2: value2
--flag4: true
1: positional3
1: positional3

Function arguments_get_flag

arguments.get_flag flag [flag_aliases...] variable_name

Sets variable_name to true if flag (or on of its aliases) is contained in the argument array (see arguments.set)

Example

arguments.get_flag verbose --verbose -v verbose_is_set

Tests

>>> arguments.set other_param1 --foo other_param2
>>> local foo bar
>>> arguments.get_flag --foo -f foo
>>> echo $foo
>>> arguments.get_flag --bar bar
>>> echo $bar
>>> echo "${arguments_new_arguments[@]}"
true
false
other_param1 other_param2
>>> arguments.set -f
>>> local foo
>>> arguments.get_flag --foo -f foo
>>> echo $foo
true

Function arguments_get_keyword

arguments.get_keyword keyword variable_name

Sets variable_name to the "value" of keyword the argument array (see arguments.set) contains "keyword=value".

Example

arguments.get_keyword log loglevel

Tests

>>> local foo
>>> arguments.set other_param1 foo=bar baz=baz other_param2
>>> arguments.get_keyword foo foo
>>> echo $foo
>>> echo "${arguments_new_arguments[@]}"
bar
other_param1 baz=baz other_param2
>>> local foo
>>> arguments.set other_param1 foo=bar baz=baz other_param2
>>> arguments.get_keyword foo
>>> echo $foo
>>> arguments.get_keyword baz foo
>>> echo $foo
bar
baz

Function arguments_get_parameter

arguments.get_parameter parameter [parameter_aliases...] variable_name

Sets variable_name to the field following parameter (or one of the parameter_aliases) from the argument array (see arguments.set).

Example

arguments.get_parameter --log-level -l loglevel

Tests

>>> local foo
>>> arguments.set other_param1 --foo bar other_param2
>>> arguments.get_parameter --foo -f foo
>>> echo $foo
>>> echo "${arguments_new_arguments[@]}"
bar
other_param1 other_param2

Function arguments_get_positional

arguments.get_positional index variable_name

Get the positional parameter at index. Use after extracting parameters, keywords and flags.

>>> arguments.set parameter foo --flag pos1 pos2 --keyword=foo
>>> arguments.get_flag --flag _
>>> arguments.get_parameter parameter _
>>> arguments.get_keyword --keyword _
>>> local positional1 positional2
>>> arguments.get_positional 1 positional1
>>> arguments.get_positional 2 positional2
>>> echo "$positional1 $positional2"
pos1 pos2

Function arguments_set

arguments.set argument1 argument2 ...

Set the array the arguments-module is working on. After getting the desired arguments, the new argument array can be accessed via arguments_new_arguments. This new array contains all remaining arguments.

Module array

Function array_filter

Filters values from given array by given regular expression.

>>> local a=(one two three wolf)
>>> local b=( $(array.filter ".*wo.*" "${a[@]}") )
>>> echo ${b[*]}
two wolf

Function array_get_index

Get index of value in an array

>>> local a=(one two three)
>>> array_get_index one "${a[@]}"
0
>>> local a=(one two three)
>>> array_get_index two "${a[@]}"
1
>>> array_get_index bar foo bar baz
1

Function array_slice

Returns a slice of an array (similar to Python).

From the Python documentation: One way to remember how slices work is to think of the indices as pointing between elements, with the left edge of the first character numbered 0. Then the right edge of the last element of an array of length n has index n, for example:

+---+---+---+---+---+---+
| 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+
0   1   2   3   4   5   6
-6  -5  -4  -3  -2  -1
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> echo $(array.slice 1:-2 "${a[@]}")
1 2 3
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> echo $(array.slice 0:1 "${a[@]}")
0
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> [ -z "$(array.slice 1:1 "${a[@]}")" ] && echo empty
empty
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> [ -z "$(array.slice 2:1 "${a[@]}")" ] && echo empty
empty
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> [ -z "$(array.slice -2:-3 "${a[@]}")" ] && echo empty
empty
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> [ -z "$(array.slice -2:-2 "${a[@]}")" ] && echo empty
empty

Slice indices have useful defaults; an omitted first index defaults to zero, an omitted second index defaults to the size of the string being sliced.

>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> # from the beginning to position 2 (excluded)
>>> echo $(array.slice 0:2 "${a[@]}")
>>> echo $(array.slice :2 "${a[@]}")
0 1
0 1
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> # from position 3 (included) to the end
>>> echo $(array.slice 3:"${#a[@]}" "${a[@]}")
>>> echo $(array.slice 3: "${a[@]}")
3 4 5
3 4 5
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> # from the second-last (included) to the end
>>> echo $(array.slice -2:"${#a[@]}" "${a[@]}")
>>> echo $(array.slice -2: "${a[@]}")
4 5
4 5
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> echo $(array.slice -4:-2 "${a[@]}")
2 3

If no range is given, it works like normal array indices.

>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> echo $(array.slice -1 "${a[@]}")
5
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> echo $(array.slice -2 "${a[@]}")
4
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> echo $(array.slice 0 "${a[@]}")
0
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> echo $(array.slice 1 "${a[@]}")
1
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> array.slice 6 "${a[@]}"; echo $?
1
>>> local a=(0 1 2 3 4 5)
>>> array.slice -7 "${a[@]}"; echo $?

Module doc_test

The doc_test module implements function and module level testing via "doc strings".

Tests can be run by invoking doc_test.sh file1 folder1 file2 ....

Options:

--help|-h                   Print help message.
--side-by-side              Print diff of failing tests side by side.
--no-check-namespace        Do not warn about unprefixed definitions.
--no-check-undocumented     Do not warn about undocumented functions.
--use-nounset               Accessing undefined variables produces error.
--verbose|-v                Be more verbose

Example output ./doc_test.sh -v arguments.sh

[verbose:doc_test.sh:330] arguments:[PASS]
[verbose:doc_test.sh:330] arguments_get_flag:[PASS]
[verbose:doc_test.sh:330] arguments_get_keyword:[PASS]
[verbose:doc_test.sh:330] arguments_get_parameter:[PASS]
[verbose:doc_test.sh:330] arguments_get_positional:[PASS]
[verbose:doc_test.sh:330] arguments_set:[PASS]
[info:doc_test.sh:590] arguments - passed 6/6 tests in 918 ms
[info:doc_test.sh:643] Total: passed 1/1 modules in 941 ms

A doc string can be defined for a function by defining a variable named __doc__ at the function scope. On the module level, the variable name should be <module_name>__doc__ (e.g. arguments__doc__ for the example above). Note: The doc string needs to be defined with single quotes.

Code contained in a module level variable named <module_name>__doc_test_setup__ will be run once before all the Tests of a module are run. This is usefull for defining mockup functions/data that can be used throughout all tests.

Tests

Tests are delimited by blank lines:

>>> echo bar
bar
>>> echo $(( 1 + 2 ))
3

But can also occur right after another:

>>> echo foo
foo
>>> echo bar
bar

Single quotes can be escaped like so:

>>> echo '$foos'
$foos

Or so

>>> echo '$foos'
$foos

Some text in between.

Multiline output

>>> local i
>>> for i in 1 2; do
>>>     echo $i;
>>> done

Ellipsis support

>>> local i
>>> for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do
>>>     echo $i;

Module logging

The available log levels are: error critical warn info debug

The standard loglevel is critical

>>> logging.get_level
>>> logging.get_commands_level
critical
critical
>>> logging.error error-message
>>> logging.critical critical-message
>>> logging.warn warn-message
>>> logging.info info-message
>>> logging.debug debug-message
+doc_test_contains
error-message
critical-message

If the output of commands should be printed, the commands_level needs to be greater than or equal to the log_level.

>>> logging.set_level critical
>>> logging.set_commands_level debug
>>> echo foo
>>> logging.set_level info
>>> logging.set_commands_level info
>>> echo foo
foo

Another logging prefix can be set by overriding "logging_get_prefix".

>>> logging_get_prefix() {
>>>     local level=$1
>>>     echo "[myprefix - ${level}]"
>>> }
>>> logging.critical foo
[myprefix - critical] foo

"logging.plain" can be used to print at any log level and without the prefix.

>>> logging.set_level critical
>>> logging.set_commands_level debug
>>> logging.plain foo
foo

"logging.cat" can be used to print files (e.g "logging.cat < file.txt") or heredocs. Like "logging.plain", it also prints at any log level and without the prefix.

>>> echo foo | logging.cat
foo
