Anyway, the whole point of doing this is: you do not have to use a lot of if conditions or case to sort variable one by one. You can just put the variable name in a loop, and it will parse out all recognized variable names.
I am using 'eval' to assign the values into variables. I was originally using 'export'. And I know there is actually some other way to do some, something like $($OPT)=$FIELDS, but somehow it didn't work for me. :-(
Using 'eval' to assign.
eval $OPT=$FIELDS
Parsing all variables and values
# Define all acceptable variable names here
ALL_OPT=(Type Host Pass User DB Table MaxTry BackupDir Src Dst Port sshUser Period dbExtra)
for WORD in $@ ; do # $WORD is the name of variable,
for OPT in ${ALL_OPT[*]} ; do # Check if I have the option in the list
FIELDS=""
case $WORD in
$OPT=?*) # To make sure it has '=' and at least one character after '='
FIELDS=${WORD:`echo ${#OPT}+1 |bc`} # grap the value
eval $OPT=$FIELDS # Assign the variable to
echo " export $OPT $FIELDS"
;;
Report)
echo "calling up Report"
bkReport
break
;;
esac
[ "$FIELDS" == "" ] || break # no value at all
done
done
Display all variable names and value
for OPT in ${ALL_OPT[*]} ; do
eval aaa=\$$OPT
echo $OPT = $aaa
done
Calling up the function
# Define all function names, which is the accepted variables value in first variable in ALL_OPT
ALL_TYPE=(Mysql File MySql Redmine)
[ $Type == "NULL" ] || for TypeCHK in ${ALL_TYPE[*]} ; do
if [ $Type == $TypeCHK ] ; then
ChkPeriod $Period
[ $? == 0 ] && bk$Type # Of course, you have to have the function, e.g: 'bkFile'.
fi
done
