Automated build and email log in bash

sardaukar_siet · 03-08-2007, 05:48 AM

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!
