Full Discussion: calling 'n' number of shell scripts based on dependency in one shell script.
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting calling 'n' number of shell scripts based on dependency in one shell script. Post 302367864 by frans on Tuesday 3rd of November 2009 04:31:31 PM

In shell it would be something like
Code:
3.1
STATUS=$(FunctionToGetValueFromOracleTable STATUS_TBL STATUS_RUN 3.1)
[ $STATUS = "complete" ] || exit 1 # exit with error
3.2
STATUS=$(FunctionToGetValueFromOracleTable STATUS_TBL STATUS_RUN 3.2)
[ $STATUS = "complete" ] || exit 1 # exit with error
... and so on

maybe better in a loop like
Code:
for PROG in 3.1 3.2 3.3
do
     $PROG
     STATUS=$(FunctionToGetValueFromOracleTable STATUS_TBL STATUS_RUN $PROG)
     [ $STATUS = "complete" ] || exit 1 # exit with error
done

It's a kind of template
Notes :
  1. The script waits the called process to finish, therefore it's not necessary to check "running"
  2. the construction with || replaces the if not [condition] then .. fi
  3. Maybe you need to replace the [ ] with [[ ]]

NAME

       script - make record of a terminal session

SYNOPSIS

       script [-a] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       The  script  utility  makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
       record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.

       The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
       when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.

OPTIONS

       The following option is supported:

       -a    Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.

NOTES

       script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.

WARNINGS

       script  can  pose  a  security risk when used in directories that are writable by other users (for example, /tmp), especially when run by a
       privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
