### Getting the terminal size (*in a script*).
|
||
|
||
This is handy when writing scripts in pure bash and `stty`/`tput` can’t be
|
||
called.
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
get_term_size() {
|
||
# Usage: get_term_size
|
||
|
||
# (:;:) is a micro sleep to ensure the variables are
|
||
# exported immediately.
|
||
shopt -s checkwinsize; (:;:)
|
||
printf '%s\n' "$LINES $COLUMNS"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Convert a hex color to RGB
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
hex_to_rgb() {
|
||
# Usage: hex_to_rgb "#FFFFFF"
|
||
((r=16#${1:1:2}))
|
||
((g=16#${1:3:2}))
|
||
((b=16#${1:5:6}))
|
||
|
||
printf '%s\n' "$r $g $b"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Convert an RGB color to hex.
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
rgb_to_hex() {
|
||
# Usage: rgb_to_hex "r" "g" "b"
|
||
printf '#%02x%02x%02x\n' "$1" "$2" "$3"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
### `printf` as a `date` replacement.
|
||
|
||
Bash’s `printf` has a built-in method of getting the date which we can use
|
||
in place of the `date` command in a lot of cases.
|
||
|
||
**NOTE:** Requires bash4+
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
date() {
|
||
# Usage: date "format"
|
||
# See: 'man strftime' for format.
|
||
printf "%($1)T\\n"
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
### `dirname`
|
||
|
||
Extract the directory from a file path.
|
||
|
||
```sh
|
||
dirname() {
|
||
# Usage: dirname "path"
|
||
printf ‘%s\n’ "${1%/*}/"
|
||
}
|
||
```
