Course Description

Welcome to linux bash shell scripting course. I'am Richard and I will be your instructor. I have great knowleadge about shell scripting as throughout my carrer I had been working for Fortune 50 company, where I apart from taking care of 200+ Solaris servers wrote many scripts for keeping live easy :)What is covered?
Basics of scripting - no worry you don't know anything about scripting by nowSha-bang explanation - what it is and why the heck it is called sha-bangDecision makingRegular expressionsWildcardsFor & While loopsFunctionsReading arguments using CASE structureGetopt Getopts...
and many moreAnd what about AWK? Yes, it is covered here! And what about SED? Also covered! Why I have created this course?
Many years back, when I was starting asUNIX administrator, I had many ideas how to improve specific things using scripts. But, I couldn't find any good resource, which would take me through all needed topic in one place. Somewhere I got great explanation about sha-bang while regular expressions for shell scripting were only mentioned. Somewhere was good explanation about decision making in if statement, but SED and AWK part was missing, and that use of SED and AWK was in my carrer really important. Basically I cannot imagine any single production script, where I wouldn't used SED or AWK, because without them you are not able to create that "magic" in your script.
Many years later, I am here to share in one place what is really needed in order to create magic script.
Not only how to create script, do some decision making in if statements, write functions, use arrays, but mainly how to combine everything including AWK and SED. I was creating this course in a way, which would help me a lot to create great scripts during start of my career. All needed things in one place.
Please, watch my preview lectures to see what we are going to build in this course.
Who this course is for:
Everyone who wants to dive into shell scriptingExperienced users who would like to take their knowleadge to next level wit AWK and SED

Awesome course. Instructor is explaining everything then he's doing some exercise with the new material. Also i like both small projects at the end of Sed/Awk sections.

everything fine, just looking the first couple of videos in order to fill some gaps, so not overwhelmed yet...

By Laura Moritz on 8/2/2020

Very good overview for beginners or for refreshing. Well explained. I would have liked some example scripts for administrators (network, user handling,..)

By Nadarajan Kuzhandaivelu on 7/25/2020

Exact I was looking for. Not too long or short. Just optimal.

Been looking for a bash scripting course that can help me improve on my programming skills and this is the first one that seems engaging and ideas clearly passed on to my understanding. Can't wait to get into loops and functions.

By Andrew Fawcett on 6/20/2020

I've previously tried to learn some bash before (along with regular expressions, sed and awk) but it never stuck. I found that I understood things with this course and it all made sense.
The tutor explained things clearly and the information was delivered in a way that was pretty easy to understand. The course was well worth the money and would recommend it to others.
