Easily add servers to Minetrack's server list.

addServer.sh

#!/bin/bash

serverName="$1"
serverIp="$2"
serverType="$3"
serverPosition="$4"
serversFile="$5"
tempFile="$6"

exampleUsage="Example: ./$(basename "$0") Hypixel mc.hypixel.net (PC) (bottom) (servers.json) (temp.json)\n* Arguments between () are optional."

if [[ ! $(command -v jq) ]]; then
    echo "Error: jq not found."
    exit 1
fi

if [[ -z "$serverName" ]]; then
	echo -e $exampleUsage
	echo "You need to enter the server name."
	exit 
fi

if [[ -z "$serverIp" ]]; then
	echo -e $exampleUsage
	echo "You need to enter the server IP address."
	exit
fi

if [[ -z "$serverType" ]]; then
	serverType="PC"
fi

if [[ -z "$serversFile" ]]; then
	serversFile="servers.json"
fi

if [[ -z "$tempFile" ]]; then
	tempFile="temp.json"
fi

if [[ -z "$serverPosition" ]] || [[ $serverPosition = "bottom" ]]; then
	serverPosition="bottom"
	filesOrder="$serversFile $tempFile"
else
	serverPosition="top"
	filesOrder="$tempFile $serversFile"
fi

# For some reason I can't pipe jq output to the same file it added to, so here is a workaround.
serversNew="$(basename $serversFile)New.json"

jq -n --arg name "$serverName" --arg ip "$serverIp" --arg type "$serverType" '[{"name": $ARGS.named["name"], "ip": $ARGS.named["ip"], "type": $ARGS.named["type"]}]' > $tempFile
jq -s add $filesOrder > $serversNew
mv $serversNew $serversFile
rm -rf $tempFile

echo -e "Name: $serverName\nIP: $serverIp\nType: $serverType\nPosition: $serverPosition"
