Instalation: ------------ First of all, You must place ls-config binary and lslib-core bash script in the same directory (default: /usr/share/ls/lib) Next in lslib-core header chcange configuration: PACD tu point to parent directory of paced files then LIBD must point relative (tu PACD) to directory whrere script placed Usage: ------ In You bash script, first of all define LS_EXEC variable, and set his value to 1. (It protect lslib-core) to run standalone Next, source library: source /usr/share/ls/lib/lslib-core After thet You can use following function: Functions: ---------- cfg_g $PATH - this echo variable value of given PATH and return error code cfg_t $PATH - this echo variable type of given PATH and return error code cfg_c $PATH - this echo cout of variable elements and return error code cfg_s $PATH $DATA [$TYPE] - this set variable of given PATH or create new variable valuse are set to DATA, and if this create new variable, variable will be type TYPE cfg_u $PATH - this unset (remove) variable of given PATH and return error code cfg_f_g $FILE $PATH - same as cfg_g, but operate on given FILE cfg_f_t $FILE $PATH - same as cfg_t, but operate on given FILE cfg_f_c $FILE $PATH - same as cfg_c, but operate on given FILE cfg_f_s $FILE $PATH $DATA [$TYPE] - same as cfg_s, but operate on given FILE cfg_f_u $FILE $PATH - same as cfg_u, but operate on given FILE Configuration files: -------------------- By default configuration file are placed in /etc/ls/ with the same name as script file name (used in cfg_g, cfg_t, cfg_c, cfg_s, cfg_u) But if You need, You can use any location of configuration file by using cfg_f_* functions, giving configuration file location as first argument Detailed configuration file shema are publicated on: http://www.hyperrealm.com/libconfig/ And his gramar on: http://www.hyperrealm.com/libconfig/libconfig_manual.html#Configuration-Files there are only short describe: configuration = setting-list | empty setting-list = setting | setting-list setting setting = name (":" | "=") value (";" | "," | empty) value = scalar-value | array | list | group value-list = value | value-list "," value scalar-value = boolean | integer | integer64 | hex | hex64 | float | string scalar-value-list = scalar-value | scalar-value-list "," scalar-value array = "[" (scalar-value-list | empty) "]" list = "(" (value-list | empty) ")" group = "{" (setting-list | empty) "}" empty = smaple configuration file and script are available on sample/ directory config - samble configuration file script - sample script, then read info variable from config file
