Automation project

In plain English

The capstone combines navigation, text processing, pipes, scripts and cron. Write a script that reads a data file, produces a summary, writes a log and exits non-zero on failure. Schedule it and verify the result.

#!/usr/bin/env bash
set -euo pipefail

log="report-$(date +%F).log"
{
  echo "run: $(date -Is)"
  awk -F, '{ total += $2 } END { print "total minutes:", total }' minutes.csv
} | tee "$log"
