Shell scripts

Collection of bash scripts used for housekeeping and other tasks

💻 Automation for power users

📜 Description

Automating tasks like backups, updates etc...

⚙️ Installation

First Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/skillz4real/sh-scripts
cd sh-scripts

Then add executable permissions:

chmod +x arch-housekeeping.sh
chmod +x debian-updates.sh
chmod +x rsync-backup.sh

Finally, Consider adding relevant commands to crontab. Each script logs to a "./log.txt" file but I also include logging in all of my crontab jobs

# crontab example for debian-bases systems
0 1 * * * echo "running debian update script at $(date)" && cd $HOME/sh-scripts/ && /bin/sh $HOME/sh-scripts/debian-updates.sh >> $HOME/crontab.log 2>&1
0 0 1 * * echo "running debian backups on $(date)" && cd $HOME/z/sh-scripts/ && ./rsync-backup.sh >> $HOME/crontab.log 2>&1 

# for arch based systems replace first job with this line
0 1 * * * echo "running arch update script at $(date)" && cd $HOME/sh-scripts/ && ./arch-housekeeping.sh >> $HOME/crontab.log 2>&1
