0x16. C - Simple Shell

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
  • 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 (why?)
  • Write a README with the description of your project
  • You should have an AUTHORS file at the root of your repository, listing all individuals having contributed content to the repository. Format, see Docker

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)

  • exit (man 3 exit)
  • _exit (man 2 _exit)
  • fflush (man 3 fflush)
  • fork (man 2 fork)

  • read (man 2 read)
  • readdir (man 3 readdir)
  • signal (man 2 signal)
  • stat (__xstat) (man 2 stat)
  • lstat (__lxstat) (man 2 lstat)

  • 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
$

Checks

The Checker will be released at the end of the project (1-2 days before the deadline). We strongly encourage the entire class to work together to create a suite of checks covering both regular tests and edge cases for each task. See task 8. Test suite.

Tasks

0. Betty would be proud

Write a beautiful code that passes the Betty checks

1. Simple shell 0.1

Write a UNIX command line interpreter.

  • Usage: simple_shell

Your Shell should:

  • Display a prompt and wait for the user to type a command. A command line always ends with a new line.
  • The prompt is displayed again each time a command has been executed.
  • The command lines are simple, no semicolons, no pipes, no redirections or any other advanced features.
  • The command lines are made only of one word. No arguments will be passed to programs.
  • If an executable cannot be found, print an error message and display the prompt again.
  • Handle errors.
  • You have to handle the “end of file” condition (Ctrl+D)

You don’t have to:

  • use the PATH
  • implement built-ins
  • handle special characters : ", ', ```, \, `*`, `&`, `#`
  • be able to move the cursor
  • handle commands with arguments

execve will be the core part of your Shell, don’t forget to pass the environ to it…

  • Handle command lines with arguments

3. Simple shell 0.3

Simple shell 0.2 +

  • Handle the PATH
  • fork must not be called if the command doesn’t exist
