edavis25 / create_site.sh
Created December 28, 2017 23:27
Shell script to enable a site in Apache.
#!/bin/bash
# This shell script automates the process of creating virtual host config files and enabling sites in Apache
# for a localhost. The script requires super user permissions as it creates a config file in the Apache
# directory and edits the /etc/hosts file.
#
# Function: The script will first prompt user to enter a name that will be used for the site and then prompt
# for a filepath pointing to the location of the website files (aka DocumentRoot in Apache config). It will
# then use these variables to create a config file, enable the site using a2ensite, and then restart Apache.
# The script will also append a line to hosts file (ex: 127.0.0.1 site-name.local) to allow access through localhost.
