This repository aims to provide multiple useful bash scripts.

Scripts

• package-management
  • README
  • apt
    • apt-install
    • apt-manage
    • apt-update
  • snap
    • snap-install
    • snap-manage
    • snap-update
  • install
  • update

Setup and use the scripts

To be able to use the scripts, simply give execution permission to the setup script located in the scripts folder:

sudo chmod u+x setup.sh

Then run the script (see ./setup.sh --help for more information about options):

./setup.sh

It will install the required packages, give all scripts execution permission, and finally create soft links in the specified target directory or in /usr/local/bin, which is the default target directory.

NOTE: the specified target directory must be present in the path of your bash profile. You can check this by running echo $PATH. If it is not present, you can add it by adding the following line to your bash profile:

export PATH="$PATH:/path/to/target-directory"

To execute a script foo.sh, just type its name in the terminal (without the extension) following by its arguments if needed:

foo arg1 arg2 ...

To properly uninstall the scripts, simply run the clean script also located in the scripts folder:

./clean.sh

It will delete all the soft links and also remove the execution permission to all scripts. Note that it won't delete your personal files located in the target directory where the soft links were added!
