Data Warehouse Application Examples

In this project, you are required to write a shell script to create, edit and view a data warehouse that contains car rental records. The shell script has to be written in Bourne shell syntax (i.e., bash). You may use any bash feature or Linux command available, but cannot use any high-level programming languages such as C++, Java, C#. The first parameter for your script is always the data warehouse name being queried. The second parameter is always the command that will be executed. Any parameters that follow are specific to the command that was issued. The general syntax of script invocation is: autodb dbname command param1 ... paramN where: ? Autodb is the name of the shell script file ? dbname is the name of the data warehouse file that contains the data records ? command is one of: create, add, view or delete ? param1 ... paramN are paramemters to the specified command Description of commands and parameters ? create title text creates a new data warehouse with name dbname. Any text following the create command will become the first line in the data warehouse file. If no text is given, the default is "Car Rental Data Warehouse". An error occurs if the data warehouse file already exists. Upon success, the create command reports "New data warehouse created". ? add make model color customer adds a new record to the data warehouse. Up to 4 parameters can be listed in this order: make, model, color, customer. If only 3 parameters are given then the script will prompt for the fourth; if only 2 are given it will prompt for parameter 3 and 4; if only one parameter is given it will prompt for parameters 2 to 4; if no parameters are given then it prompts for all 4. All parameters are strings. Upon success, the add command reports "Successfully added a record to the data warehouse". ? view all view single number view range number1 number2 allows the user to view all records, just a single record or a range of records in 3 the data warehouse. To view a single record the record number is specified after the keyword "single". To view a range of records the 2 numbers after the keyword "range" indicate the start and the end of the range, they are inclusive. The second number must be larger than the first. The output of the view command lists records in the data warehouse. The first line of output always is the title text from the data warehouse. Then follow the lines for the requested entries in the data warehouse, either all, a single line, or a range. An example "view all" output looks like this: Car Rental Data Warehouse Ford, Mustang, blue, Joshua Mitsubishi, Lancer, white, Linda Toyota, Camry LE, black, Ken Porsche, Cayenne S, red, Amy An example "view range 2 3" output looks like this: Car Rental Data Warehouse Mitsubishi, Lancer, white, Linda Toyota, Camry LE, black, Ken.

(10 Bonus points) For the following: delete all delete single number delete range number1 number2 allows the user to delete records: either all, just a single record or a range of records. To delete a single record the record number is specified after the keyword "single". To delete a range of records the 2 numbers after the keyword "range" indicate the start and the end of the range, they are inclusive. The second number must be larger than the first. The delete command reports the number of lines deleted, such as "Successfully deleted 4 records from the data warehouse". Note that the title line in the data warehouse is never deleted.
