Bash Scripts Menu

This project consists of a set of Bash scripts that perform various text analysis operations on a predetermined text. The scripts are packaged into a Docker image for easy execution.

Project Structure

• menu.sh

Provides a user interface to access different functions

#!/usr/bin/env bash

if [ ! -f "$TEXT_FILE" ]; then
    echo "Error: File '$TEXT_FILE' not found."
    exit 1

• blankLinesCounter.sh

Counts blank lines in the text

#!/usr/bin/env bash

usage() {
    echo "Usage: $0 <filename>"
    echo "Counts the number of blank lines in the specified file."
}

if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then

    echo "Error: File '$1' not found."
    usage
    exit 1

blank_lines=$(grep -c '^s*$' "$1")

echo "File: $1"
echo "Number of blank lines: $blank_lines"

exit 0

• findNames.sh

Finds and lists names in the text

#!/usr/bin/env bash

if [ $# -eq 0 ]; then
    echo "Error: Please provide a file name as an argument."
    echo "Usage: $0 <filename>"
    exit 1

grep -oE "$name_pattern" "$1" | sort -u | while read -r name; do
    echo "'$name' is a proper name"
done

exit 0

• statsSentences.sh

Analyzes sentence statistics

#!/usr/bin/bash

• statsUsageWords.sh

Analyzes word usage statistics

#!/usr/bin/bash

declare -A diccionario

for palabra in $texto

for i in $ {!diccionario[@]}
do

done | sort -rn -k3 | head -n 10

• statsWords.sh

Provides general word statistics

#!/usr/bin/bash

texto=$(cat $1)

palabralarga=0
palabracorta=30
suma=0
cantidad=0
for x in $texto
do 
	echo $x | tr -d [".",",",":","-"] >> textosinpuntos.txt

I have improved and optimized the code but here you can find the original in this repository.
