# Bash script to add a new domain (Apache2)
# (c) 2014 Mike Everhart | PlasticBrain Media LLC
#
# Prerequisites: 
# 	Create a vhosts "template" in $APACHEDIR/sites-available. The template should 
# 	include placeholders ($TOKEN) that will be replaced with the new domain name.
# 	See https://gist.github.com/plasticbrain/9620846 for an example template
# 	
# Usage:
#	./add_domain.sh domain-to-add.com

APACHEDIR=/etc/apache2
TEMPLATEFILE=_TEMPLATE_
WWWDIR=/var/www
HTMLDIR=public_html
WWWUSER=www-data
WWWGROUP=www-data
TOKEN=%DOMAIN%


DOMAIN=$1

## Make sure a domain was passed
if [ -z $1 ]
  then
  	echo "You did not include the new domain name..."
  	exit 
fi

## Create the directory for the new domain
mkdir -p $WWWDIR/$DOMAIN/$HTMLDIR
echo "+ Created dir $WWWDIR/$DOMAIN/$HTMLDIR"

## Copy the vhosts template
sudo cp $APACHEDIR/sites-available/$TEMPLATEFILE $APACHEDIR/sites-available/$DOMAIN
echo "+ Created vhosts file at $APACHEDIR/sites-available/$DOMAIN"

## Replace the token placeholder with the domain
sudo sed -i "s/$TOKEN/$DOMAIN/g" $APACHEDIR/sites-available/$DOMAIN
echo "+ Replaced \"$TOKEN\" with \"$DOMAIN\" in $APACHEDIR/sites-available/$DOMAIN"

## chown/chmod the vhosts files
sudo chown $WWWUSER:$WWWGROUP $APACHEDIR/sites-available/$DOMAIN
sudo chmod 775 $APACHEDIR/sites-available/$DOMAIN
echo "+ chowned/chmoded vhosts file"
