SIMPLE SHELL PROJECT


Introduction

This is a group project, and as part of low-level programming foundation and algorithm--Linux and Unix system programming, we are to develop a simple UNIX command interpreter (shell).

Description

A simple UNIX command interpreter is a program that reads commands from the standard input or files and executes them in order to display a result.

Requirements

General

  • Allowed editors: vi, vim, emacs
  • All your files will be compiled on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS using gcc, using the options -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic -std=gnu89
  • All your files should end with a new line
  • A README.md file, at the root of the folder of the project is mandatory
  • Your code should use the Betty style. It will be checked using betty-style.pl and betty-doc.pl
  • Your shell should not have any memory leaks
  • No more than 5 functions per file
  • All your header files should be include guarded
  • Use system calls only when you need to
  • You should have an AUTHORS file at the root of your repository, listing all individuals having contributed content to the repository

More Info

Output:

  • Unless specified otherwise, your program must have the exact same output as sh(/bin/sh) as well as the exact same error output.
  • The only difference is when you print an error, the name of the program must be equivalent to your argv[0] (See below): Example of error with sh:
$ echo "qwerty" | /bin/sh
/bin/sh: 1: qwerty: not found
$ echo "qwerty" | /bin/../bin/sh
/bin/../bin/sh: 1: qwerty: not found
$

Same error with your program hsh:

$ echo "qwerty" | ./hsh
./hsh: 1: qwerty: not found
$ echo "qwerty" | ./././hsh
./././hsh: 1: qwerty: not found
$

List of allowed functions and system calls

  • access (man 2 access)
  • chdir (man 2 chdir)
  • close (man 2 close)
  • closedir (man 3 closedir)
  • execve (man 2 execve)
  • exit (man 3 exit)
  • _exit (man 2 _exit)
  • fflush (man 3 fflush)
  • fork (man 2 fork)
  • free (man 3 free)
  • getcwd (man 3 getcwd)
  • getline (man 3 getline)
  • getpid (man 2 getpid)
  • isatty (man 3 isatty)
  • kill (man 2 kill)
  • malloc (man 3 malloc)
  • open (man 2 open)
  • opendir (man 3 opendir)
  • perror (man 3 perror)
  • read (man 2 read)
  • readdir (man 3 readdir)
  • signal (man 2 signal)
  • stat (__xstat) (man 2 stat)
  • lstat (__lxstat) (man 2 lstat)
  • fstat (__fxstat) (man 2 fstat)
  • strtok (man 3 strtok)
  • wait (man 2 wait)
  • waitpid (man 2 waitpid)
  • wait3 (man 2 wait3)
  • wait4 (man 2 wait4)
  • write (man 2 write)

Compilation

Your shell will be compiled this way: gcc -Wall -Werror -Wextra -pedantic -std=gnu89 *.c -o hsh

Testing

Your shell should work like this in interactive mode:

$ ./hsh
($) /bin/ls
hsh main.c shell.c
($)
($) exit
$

But also in non-interactive mode:

$ echo "/bin/ls" | ./hsh
hsh main.c shell.c test_ls_2
$
$ cat test_ls_2
/bin/ls
/bin/ls
$
$ cat test_ls_2 | ./hsh
hsh main.c shell.c test_ls_2
hsh main.c shell.c test_ls_2
$
