This bash script tutorial assumes no previous knowledge of bash scripting.As you will soon discover in this quick comprehensive bash scripting guide, learning the bash shell scripting is very easy task. Lets begin this bash scripting tutorial with a simple "Hello World" script.

Recommended Books / Reading on this topic :

Learning the bash Shell: Unix Shell Programming]

Hello World Bash Shell Script

First you need to find out where is your bash interpreter located. Enter the following into your command line:

$ which bash
bash interpreter location: /bin/bash

Open up you favorite text editor ( Here is a tutorial where you can learn how to use vi / vim text editor. ) and a create file called hello_world.sh. Insert the following lines to a file:

<b>NOTE:Every bash shell script in this tutorial starts with shebang:"#!" which is not read as a comment. First line is also a place where you put your interpreter which is in this case: /bin/bash.

Here is our first bash shell script example:

#!/bin/bash
# declare STRING variable
STRING="Hello World"
#print variable on a screen
echo $STRING

Example of simple bash shell script

Navigate to a directory where your hello_world.sh is located and make the file executable:

$ chmod +x hello_world.sh
Make bash shell script executable

Now you are ready to execute your first bash script:

./hello_world.sh
execute bash shell script


Simple Backup bash shell script

#!/bin/bash
tar -czf myhome_directory.tar.gz /home/linuxconfig

Variables

In this example we declare simple bash variable and print it on the screen ( stdout ) with echo command.

#!/bin/bash
STRING="HELLO WORLD!!!"
echo $STRING
String Variables in bash script

Your backup script and variables:

#!/bin/bash
OF=myhome_directory_$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.gz
tar -czf $OF /home/linuxconfig

Global vs. Local variables

#!/bin/bash
#Define bash global variable
#This variable is global and can be used anywhere in this bash script
VAR="global variable"
function bash {
#Define bash local variable
#This variable is local to bash function only
local VAR="local variable"
echo $VAR
}
echo $VAR
bash
# Note the bash global variable did not change
# "local" is bash reserved word
echo $VAR

Passing arguments to the bash script

#!/bin/bash
# use predefined variables to access passed arguments
#echo arguments to the shell
echo $1 $2 $3 ' -> echo $1 $2 $3'

# We can also store arguments from bash command line in special array
args=("$@")
#echo arguments to the shell
echo ${args[0]} ${args[1]} ${args[2]} ' -> args=("$@"); echo ${args[0]} ${args[1]} ${args[2]}'

#use $@ to print out all arguments at once
echo $@ ' -> echo $@'

# use $# variable to print out
# number of arguments passed to the bash script
echo Number of arguments passed: $# ' -> echo Number of arguments passed: $#'

echo "You said $REPLY, I'm glad to hear that! "
echo -e "What are your favorite colours ? "
# -a makes read command to read into an array
read -a colours
echo "My favorite colours are also ${colours[0]}, ${colours[1]} and ${colours[2]}:-)"

if [ -d $directory ]; then
	echo "Directory exists"
else 
	echo "Directory does not exists"
fi

Bash if else statement

Nested if/else

#!/bin/bash

# Declare variable choice and assign value 4
choice=4
# Print to stdout
 echo "1. Bash"
 echo "2. Scripting"
 echo "3. Tutorial"
 echo -n "Please choose a word [1,2 or 3]? "
# Loop while the variable choice is equal 4
# bash while loop
while [ $choice -eq 4 ]; do

# read user input
read choice
# bash nested if/else
if [ $choice -eq 1 ] ; then

        echo "You have chosen word: Bash"

else                   

        if [ $choice -eq 2 ] ; then
                 echo "You have chosen word: Scripting"

if [ $S1 = $S2 ]; then
	echo "Both Strings are equal"
else 
	echo "Strings are NOT equal"

Bash File Testing

-b filename Block special file
-c filename Special character file
-d directoryname Check for directory existence
-e filename Check for file existence
-f filename Check for regular file existence not a directory
-G filename Check if file exists and is owned by effective group ID.
-g filename true if file exists and is set-group-id.
-k filename Sticky bit
-L filename Symbolic link
-O filename True if file exists and is owned by the effective user id.
-r filename Check if file is a readable
-S filename Check if file is socket
-s filename Check if file is nonzero size
-u filename Check if file set-ser-id bit is set
-w filename Check if file is writable
-x filename Check if file is executable
#!/bin/bash
file="./file"
if [ -e $file ]; then
	echo "File exists"
else 
	echo "File does not exists"
fi
Bash File Testing - File does not exist
Bash File Testing - File exists

Similarly for example we can use while loop to check if file does not exists. This script will sleep until file does exists. Note bash negator "!" which negates the -e option.

#!/bin/bash

while [ ! -e myfile ]; do
# Sleep until file does exists/is created
sleep 1
done

Loops

Bash for loop

#!/bin/bash

# bash for loop
for f in $( ls /var/ ); do
	echo $f
done

Running for loop from bash shell command line:

$ for f in $( ls /var/ ); do echo $f; done
Bash for loop

Bash while loop

#!/bin/bash
COUNT=6
# bash while loop
while [ $COUNT -gt 0 ]; do
	echo Value of count is: $COUNT
	let COUNT=COUNT-1
done
Bash while loop

Bash until loop

#!/bin/bash
COUNT=0
# bash until loop
until [ $COUNT -gt 5 ]; do
        echo Value of count is: $COUNT
        let COUNT=COUNT+1
done
Bash until loop

Control bash loop with <STDIN>

Here is a example of while loop controlled by standard input. Until the redirection chain from STDOUT to STDIN to the read command exists the while loop continues.

#!/bin/bash
# This bash script will locate and replace spaces
# in the filenames
DIR="."
# Controlling a loop with bash read command by redirecting STDOUT as
# a STDIN to while loop
# find will not truncate filenames containing spaces
find $DIR -type f | while read file; do
# using POSIX class [:space:] to find space in the filename
if [[ "$file" = *[[:space:]]* ]]; then
# substitute space with "_" character and consequently rename the file
mv "$file" `echo $file | tr ' ' '_'`
fi;
# end of while loop
done

Bash quotes and quotations

Quotations and quotes are important part of bash and bash scripting. Here are some bash quotes and quotations basics.

Escaping Meta characters

Before we start with quotes and quotations we should know something about escaping meta characters. Escaping will suppress a special meaning of meta characters and therefore meta characters will be read by bash literally. To do this we need to use backslash "\" character. Example:

#!/bin/bash

#Declare bash string variable
BASH_VAR="Bash Script"

# echo variable BASH_VAR
echo $BASH_VAR

#when meta character such us "$" is escaped with "\" it will be read literally
echo \$BASH_VAR 

# backslash has also special meaning and it can be suppressed with yet another "\"
echo "\\"

escaping meta characters in bash

Single quotes

Single quotes in bash will suppress special meaning of every meta characters. Therefore meta characters will be read literally. It is not possible to use another single quote within two single quotes not even if the single quote is escaped by backslash.

#!/bin/bash

#Declare bash string variable
BASH_VAR="Bash Script"

# echo variable BASH_VAR
echo $BASH_VAR

# meta characters special meaning in bash is suppressed when  using single quotes 
echo '$BASH_VAR  "$BASH_VAR"'

Using single quotes in bash

Double Quotes

Double quotes in bash will suppress special meaning of every meta characters except "$", "\" and "`". Any other meta characters will be read literally. It is also possible to use single quote within double quotes. If we need to use double quotes within double quotes bash can read them literally when escaping them with "\". Example:

#!/bin/bash

#Declare bash string variable
BASH_VAR="Bash Script"

# echo variable BASH_VAR
echo $BASH_VAR

# meta characters and its special meaning in bash is 
# suppressed when using double quotes except "$", "\" and "`"

echo "It's $BASH_VAR  and \"$BASH_VAR\" using backticks: `date`"

Using double quotes in bash

Bash quoting with ANSI-C style

There is also another type of quoting and that is ANSI-C. In this type of quoting characters escaped with "\" will gain special meaning according to the ANSI-C standard.

/a
alert (bell)
/b
backspace
/e
an escape character
/f
form feed
/n
newline
/r
carriage return
/t
horizontal tab
/v
vertical tab
\\
backslash
\`
single quote
\nnn
octal value of characters ( see ASCII table )
\xnn
hexadecimal value of characters ( see ASCII table )

The syntax fo ansi-c bash quoting is: $'<your string>' . Here is an example:

#!/bin/bash

# as a example we have used \n as a new line, \x40 is hex value for @
# and \56 is octal value for .
echo $'web: www.linuxconfig.org\nemail: web\x40linuxconfig\56org'

Redirections

STDOUT from bash script to STDERR

#!/bin/bash

echo "Redirect this STDOUT to STDERR" 1>&2

To proof that STDOUT is redirected to STDERR we can redirect script's output to file:

STDOUT from bash script to STDERR

STDERR from bash script to STDOUT

#!/bin/bash

cat $1 2>&1

To proof that STDERR is redirected to STDOUT we can redirect script's output to file:

STDERR from bash script to STDOUT

stdout to screen

The simple way to redirect a standard output ( stdout ) is to simply use any command, because by default stdout is automatically redirected to screen.

cat /proc/partitions
bash stdout to screen

stdout to file

Here we use ">" to redirect stdout to a file "partitions.txt".

cat /proc/partitions > partitions.txt
bash stdout to file

stderr to file

In this example you will redirect the standard error ( stderr ) to a file and stdout to a default screen.

grep -r hda6 * . 2> stderr.txt
bash stderr to file

stdout to stderr

In this case the output of a command will be written to the same descriptor as a stderr.

grep -r hda6 * . 1>&2 stderr.txt
bash stdout to stderr

stderr to stdout

In this case the stderr of a command will be written to the same descriptor as a stdout.

grep -r hda6 * . 2>&1 stderr.txt
stderr to stdout

stderr and stdout to file

grep -r hda6 * . &> stderr_and_stdout.txt
stderr and stdout to file
