To modify the script to accept project names via a piped data stream and to manage multiple projects seamlessly, while also outputting a data stream that aids in the management of these projects, we will introduce a few key changes:
1. **Accept Project Names via a Piped Data Stream**: Instead of taking project names as command-line arguments, the script will read from standard input (stdin), allowing names to be piped into it.
2. **Maintain a List of Projects**: The script will maintain a list of initialized projects in a file, allowing it to recognize and manage multiple projects.
3. **Output a Data Stream for Management**: Upon each invocation, the script will output status information about the projects it manages, aiding in seamless management.
Below is the revised script incorporating these changes:
```bash
#!/bin/bash
# File to store the list of projects
PROJECTS_FILE="projects_list.txt"
# Function to initialize a project
initializeProject() {
local projectName=$1
if [ ! -d "$projectName" ]; then
mkdir -p "$projectName"/{docs,team,code}
touch "$projectName"/CONTRIBUTING.md
echo "$projectName" >> "$PROJECTS_FILE"
echo "Initialized $projectName."
else
echo "$projectName already exists."
fi
}
# Function to read project names from stdin and initialize them
readAndInitializeProjects() {
while IFS= read -r projectName; do
if [ -n "$projectName" ]; then
initializeProject "$projectName"
fi
done
}
# Function to list all projects
listProjects() {
if [ -f "$PROJECTS_FILE" ]; then
echo "Listing all projects:"
cat "$PROJECTS_FILE"
else
echo "No projects found."
fi
}
# Main function to handle input and manage projects
main() {
echo "Reading project names from input..."
readAndInitializeProjects
echo
listProjects
# Outputting a data stream for project management
if [ -f "$PROJECTS_FILE" ]; then
while IFS= read -r projectName; do
if [ -d "$projectName" ]; then
echo "Project: $projectName, Status: Active"
fi
done < "$PROJECTS_FILE"
fi
}
# Check if input is coming from a pipe
if [ -p /dev/stdin ]; then
main
else
echo "Please pipe in project names to manage."
fi
```
### How to Use This Script
1. **Prepare Project Names**: Create a file or generate a list of project names you wish to manage. For example, you might have a file `projects.txt` with each project name on a new line.
2. **Pipe Project Names into the Script**: Pipe the contents of your projects list into the script. For example:
```bash
cat projects.txt | ./manage_projects.sh
```
This script now reads project names from a piped data stream, initializes directories for them if they don't already exist, and maintains a list of all projects it has initialized. Upon execution, it outputs a list of all projects along with their status, providing a simple yet effective data stream for managing multiple projects seamlessly.
Remember to make the script executable (`chmod +x manage_projects.sh`) before running it.
