Creating aliases for TCAdmin commands

[JohnnyO]

A few aliases to shorten some commands when working with TCAdmin.

Creating system aliases for the most used routines saves time.

Edit your /root/.bash_aliases file and place the following in that file.

 

 

root@server ~ # nano /root/.bash_aliases

 

#-- Bash Alias File - March 10, 2018 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
#
#-- One Liner Aliases
alias tailser='cd /home/tcadmin/Logs/ServiceManager/; tail -f console.log'
alias tailmon='cd /home/tcadmin/Logs/Monitor/; tail -f console.log'
alias nanotcamon='cd /home/tcadmin/Monitor/; nano TCAdminMonitor.exe.config'
#
#
#-- Function Aliases
function tcadebugon() {
clear; cd /home/tcadmin/Monitor; ./monitor-service stop; sleep 1;
sed -i 's/<add key=\"TCAdmin.Debug\" value=\"False\" \/>/<add key=\"TCAdmin.Debug\" value=\"True\" \/>/g' TCAdminMonitor.exe.config;
/bin/chmod 0700 /home/tcadmin; /bin/chown -R tcadmin: /home/tcadmin;
sleep 1; ./monitor-service start;
}
function tcadebugoff() {
clear; cd /home/tcadmin/Monitor; ./monitor-service stop; sleep 1; killall mono;
sed -i 's/<add key=\"TCAdmin.Debug\" value=\"True\" \/>/<add key=\"TCAdmin.Debug\" value=\"False\" \/>/g' TCAdminMonitor.exe.config;
/bin/chmod 0700 /home/tcadmin; /bin/chown -R tcadmin: /home/tcadmin;
sleep 1; ./monitor-service start;
}

 

then do ...

 

root@server ~ # chmod 0644 /root/.bash_aliases

root@server ~ # source ~/.bashrc

 

 

Now call for one of the aliases in shell by typing its name and hitting the enter key:

 

 

root@server ~ # tailser

root@server ~ # tailmon

root@server ~ # nanotcamon

root@server ~ # tcadebugon

root@server ~ # tcadebugoff

 

 

 

If you have a great alias that can help others, post them below and we'll add them to this post!
