# Bash Shell Organizer
A better way to keep your shell setup organized, clean, and useful

 interactive (.bashrc) environment, aliases, functions, modules

## Install

Clone to a directory

`git clone https://git.kebler.net/bashrc  <repo path>`  suggestion: /opt/shell/base


The idea is to keep the .bashrc file completely clean and manage this repo instead
so you should really find a home for all the existing content of your .bashrc file within the repo

Every file in `env` `functions`,`aliases` and `misc` subdirectories will be sourced in that order (in setup.sh).  Within each folder all files are sourced except ones ending with a `.off` extension, starting with `.` and the README.md file plus any in any subfolder except `/archive` or ` /dep`

The sourced files in this repo should be NOT be user/machine/network specific

if you include any of these environment variables all files in there directories will be sourced where


# unless below specific directories are set
# shell files are sourced in this order
# sourced via /etc/bash.bashrc so for all machine users
# $BASH_SHELL_BASE  # this is set in /etc/bash.bashrc and etc/profile via the deploy script
# $BASH_SHELL_NETWORK/all
# $BASH_SHELL_NETWORK/$NETWORKNAME
# $BASH_SHELL_HOST/all
# $BASH_SHELL_HOST/<hostname>
# sourced via $HOME/.bashrc
# $HOME/shell or $HOME/BASH_SHELL_USER

# within each of those directories if setup.sh exits it will be run
# otherwise files will be sourced exactly like in the base

# identify a network name that this host resides on
# like hostname but for the LAN network
# if unset then only /all will be sourced
export NETWORKNAME=238
# will use $BASH_SHELL_NETWORK/$NETWORKNAME under this directory unless specifically set
export BASH_SHELL_NETWORK=$BASH_SHELL/network

# will use $BASH_SHELL_HOST/<hostname> unless specifically set
export BASH_SHELL_HOST=$BASH_SHELL/host

# by default SHELL sources will be looked for under $HOME/shell
# but can be user set below to $HOME/$BASH_SHELL_USER
# export BASH_SHELL_USER=<some directory under $HOME>
if there is a script setup.sh in the root of these directoies it will be run.  If not then all files no matter how deep will be sourced in alpha order order.

For those

If need to turn off a file just add `.off` to the file name rather than move or delete the file...simple.

If you are really done with something but want to keep a copy in the repo move it to /archive folder within the primary subfolders

if sourcing some file depends on another preface with numbers to put it before.  Functions are all sourced before aliases so can be referred to there.

Be aware that an alias or function set in the repo could be subsuming some existing binary or script.
