openscripts

Collection of utility shell scripts (Apache, Django, macOS cleanup, SSH keys, dotfiles, dev-tools check-up, installers) exposed through a single dispatcher: openscripts.sh.

Each command is an independent, self-contained script under scripts/. The dispatcher takes the first argument as the command name and forwards every remaining argument to the underlying script unchanged.

Requirements

• Bash 4+ (/bin/bash or /usr/bin/env bash).
• Standard Unix utilities: awk, sed, grep, tr, find, stat, du.
• Per-command requirements:
  • apache: Apache HTTP Server (apachectl), certbot (only for the SSL flow), root privileges.
  • django: a project with manage.py in the current directory and python on PATH.
  • macos-cleanup: macOS (Darwin) only.
  • ssh, ssh-keygen, ssh-keyremove: ssh-keygen from OpenSSH.
  • calc: bc (with -l) and awk.
  • devtools-checkup: optional — only the tools you want to inspect.
  • install-lazydocker: curl, tar, sudo (Linux x86_64).
  • install-openscripts: write access (or sudo) for /usr/local/bin.

No third-party libraries or package managers are required to run the dispatcher itself.

Installation

Clone the repository and make sure openscripts.sh is executable:

git clone <repository-url> openscripts
cd openscripts
chmod +x openscripts.sh

Optionally, symlink the dispatcher into /usr/local/bin so it becomes available as the openscripts command from anywhere:

./openscripts.sh install-openscripts install

To remove the symlink later:

./openscripts.sh install-openscripts uninstall

To check whether the symlink is in place:

./openscripts.sh install-openscripts status

Usage

./openscripts.sh <command> [arguments...]

List every available command:

./openscripts.sh help

Each command also accepts -h / --help / help and prints its own detailed usage.

Examples

# Show the dispatcher's command list.
./openscripts.sh help# Show the help for a specific command.
./openscripts.sh ssh-keygen --help
./openscripts.sh caesar help# Generate a new Ed25519 SSH key for GitHub and register it in ~/.ssh/config.
./openscripts.sh ssh-keygen --email me@example.com --host github.com
# Remove that key pair, its config block, and its known_hosts entries.
./openscripts.sh ssh-keyremove --name id_ed25519 --host github.com --yes
# Run an ad-hoc calculation.
./openscripts.sh calc "sin(pi / 2) + sqrt(2)"# Encrypt a string with the Caesar cipher.
./openscripts.sh caesar encrypt 3 "Hello, World!"# Back up dotfiles into ~/dotfiles-backup.
./openscripts.sh dotfiles export~/dotfiles-backup
# Run the developer-tools check-up.
./openscripts.sh devtools-checkup

Adding a new command

1. Drop a new executable script in scripts/ (or scripts/installers/) following the naming convention <topic>-manage.sh or <topic>.sh.
2. Mark it executable: chmod +x scripts/<your-script>.sh.
3. Make sure it has its own --help / help handler and validates its arguments.
4. Register it in the COMMANDS array in openscripts.sh using the name|relative path|description format.
