utils.sh

Bash - Utility Script

Description

A helper/utility script to be imported by other scripts.

Intended to hold very common functionality (that's surprisingly not built into bash) such as string upper/lower, and checking current user value, and prompts of yes/no user input.

Using the Script

First, copy the utils.sh script into your desired project folder.

Next, call it in a different script with the line . .<path_to_utils_file>. Note that this should be near the top of the file.

For example, if both utils.sh and the calling script are in the same directory, then the syntax would be: . ./utils.sh

At this point, you should have full functionality of the utils.sh file.
