Automated build and email log in bash

Hello!

I have a specific need for a script :

1. extract latest CVS
2. build the extracted snapshot (configure + make)
3. if successful, stop service, copy generated binary to a directory, restart service
4. mail me all output + time taken in each step (cvs retrieval, configure and make) + is service running

So far, I have 1 and 2 running :

Code:

#!/bin/bash



# Automatic MLDonkey compilation from CVS

# Run as root in home directory



cvs -z9 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sv.gnu.org:/sources/mldonkey co -P mldonkey

cd mldonkey

./configure

make

echo "MLDonkey build complete."

What is the best way to implement the remaining steps? Also, if I run this as a cron job, will I get two mails (from successful cronjob + script's own mail) ?

Thanks for any help!

Got it! :D

Code:

#!/bin/bash



# Automated MLDonkey build script - sardaukar.siet@gmail.com
