These Are The Bash Shell Commands That Stand Between Me And Insanity

I will not profess to be a bash shell wizard… but I have managed to scour some pretty helpful little scripts from Stack Overflow and modify them to suit my needs.

All of these commands are for Ubuntu/WSL … some may work in other scenarios but I can’t guarantee it.

As of this writing I have about 120 more bash snippets I regularly use… I am not writing the whole article right now but I wanted to get it started so I feel obligated to finish it!

Recursive Unzip followed by recursive delete zip:

	#!/bin/bash
	sudo apt install unzip

	find . -name "*.zip" \| while read filename; do unzip -o -d "`dirname "$filename"`" "$filename"; done;


	# then delete the zip files
	find . -name "*.zip" -type f -print -delete

Remove spaces from file and folder names

	#!bin/bash
	sudo apt install rename

	find . -name "* *" -type d \| rename 's/ /_/g' # do the directories first
	find . -name "* *" -type f \| rename 's/ /_/g'

Find and replace in string/folder names

find . -type f -exec rename ‘s/string1/string2/g’ {} +

Remove numbers from file names

find $dir -type f | sed ‘s|\(.*/\)[^A-Z]*\([A-Z].*\)|mv \”&\” \”\1\2\”|’ | sh

Delete files within size range ( for when GitHub cries about file size):

find . -size +386b -a -size -390b -exec rm -f {} \;

Create symbolic link to working directory

ln -s “$(pwd)” ~/mylink

Remove any traces of a git repository:

find . \( -name “.git” -o -name “.gitignore” -o -name “.gitmodules” -o -name “.gitattributes” \) -exec rm -rf — {} +

Replace spaces in filenames with underscores

for file in *; do mv “$file” `echo $file | tr ‘ ‘ ‘_’` ; done

Remove Empty Files and Folders:

find . -empty -type f -print -delete
find . -empty -type d -print -delete

find . -depth -exec rmdir {} \;

Autogenerate a navigable HTML directory for all the files in the current working directory you exicute the script in:

	#!/bin/sh
	#find ./ \| grep -i "\.*$" >files
	find. / \|sed - E - e 's/([^ ]+[ ]+){8}//' \| grep - i "\.*$" > files
	listing = "files"
	out = ""
	html = "sitemap.html"
	out = "basename $out.html"
	html = "sitemap.html"
	cmd ()
	{

	echo ' <!DOCTYPE html>'
	echo '<html>'
	echo '<head>'
	echo ' <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html">'
	echo ' <meta name="Author" content="Bryan Guner">'

	echo " <TITLE> directory </TITLE> </head>"
	echo ""

	echo ""
	echo "<ul>"
	awk '{print "<li><a href=\""$1"\">",$1," </li>"}' $listing
	#awk '{print "<li>"};
	#{print " <a href=\""$1"\">",$1,"</a></li> "}' \ $listing
	echo ""
	echo "</ul>"
	echo "</body>"
	echo "</html>"
	}


	cmd $listing-- sort = extension >> $html

Deploy React App To Heroku Using Postgres & Express Heroku is an web application that makes deploying applications easy for a beginner. Before you begin deploying, make sure to remove any console.log ’s or debugger ’s in any production code. You can search your entire project folder if you are using them anywhere. You will set up Heroku to run on a production, not development, version of your application. When a Node.js application like yours is pushed up to Heroku, it is identified as a Node.js application because of the package.json file. It runs npm install automatically. Then, if there is a heroku-postbui...
