Scripting: the art of solving problems in 10 lines of code!
Automate system tasks with Bash, PowerShell, and Python!
Whether you’ve been working in IT for a few months or a few decades, you know that nothing beats simplicity. Scripting can automate tedious tasks and solve specific problems in just a few lines of code. This is possible because many IT tasks don’t require a complex solution—just 10 lines of Python, Bash, or PowerShell are often enough. Simple scripts make work in system administration or software development easier.
In this practical resource, expert IT professional Michael Kofler shows you how to harness the power of scripting environments. Using numerous code examples, you’ll learn how to automate tasks with shell or Python scripts to reduce your day-to-day workload. This book includes an overview of modern shell tools and IDEs such as Visual Studio Code, Git, and SSH.
Find sample solutions for many scenarios: create Markdown documents automatically, perform script-supported backups, scrape web content, maintain databases, and more!
- Bash, PowerShell, and Python
- Linux toolbox
- cmdlets
- JSON, XML, and INI
- SSH, VS Code, and Git
- Automation with Cron
- Backup automation
- Web scraping
Inside the book:
Whether you’re just starting your programming or administration career or you’re already familiar with the fundamentals, you’ll get in shape for scripting with expert guidance for Bash/Zsh, PowerShell, and Python. Regardless of the system you’re working in (Linux, Windows, or Mac; local or in the cloud), you’ll find sample solutions that you can use as the basis for your own scripts.
This book includes:
- A practical guide for developers and administrators
- Concrete solutions for practical use cases
- Detailed, numbered code listings
- Helpful prerequisites for key techniques
- A comprehensive index
- All code examples available as downloadable supplements
