Intro

TCL-Expect scripts are an amazingly easy way to script out laborious tasks in the shell when you need to be interactive with the console. Think of them as a "macro" or way to programmaticly step through a process you would run by hand. They are similar to shell scripts but utilize the .tcl extension and a different #! call.

Setup Your Script

The first step, similar to writing a bash script, is to tell the script what it's executing under. For expect we use the following:

#!/usr/bin/expect

Vagrant Setup

This tutorial guides you through creating your first Vagrant project.

We start with a generic Ubuntu VM, and use the Chef provisioning tool to:

install packages for vim, git
create user accounts, as specified in included JSON config files
install specified user dotfiles (.bashrc, .vimrc, etc) from a git repository

Afterwards, we'll see how easy it is to package our newly provisioned VM

	YesOrNo() {
	while :
	do
	read -p 'Do you want to Continue (yes/no?): ' answer
	case "${answer}" in
	[yY]\|[yY][eE][sS]) exit 0 ;;
	[nN]\|[nN][oO]) exit 1 ;;
	esac
	done
	}

	// USAGE ------
	// ============

	var shell = require('./shellHelper');

	// execute a single shell command
	shell.exec('npm test --coverage', function(err){
	console.log('executed test');
	}});
