Simple bash script that creates a countdown progress bar
There is nothing to see here. I'm just uploading 2024 data so that the internet will not crash.
Just in case you are curious of the script, here it is!!!
#!/bin/bash
countdown() {
local start_timestamp=$1
local end_timestamp=$2
local update_interval=$3
local current_timestamp=$(date +%s)
local remaining=$(($end_timestamp - $current_timestamp))
local total_duration=$(($end_timestamp - $start_timestamp))
local progress=0
while [ $remaining -gt 0 ]; do
current_time=$(date +"%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S")
sleep $update_interval
current_timestamp=$(date +%s)
remaining=$(($end_timestamp - $current_timestamp))
Calculate progress as a percentage
progress=$((100 - remaining * 100 / total_duration))
Draw progress bar with text message
printf "[%s] Uploading 2024 Data to the Internet: [%-50s] %d%%\r" "$current_time" $(printf "#%.0s" $(seq 1 $((progress / 2)))) $progress
done
printf "\n"
}
Set the start and end timestamps
start_timestamp=$(date -d "Dec 31 2023 00:00:00" +%s)
end_timestamp=$(date -d "Jan 01 2024 00:00:00" +%s)
Set the update interval
update_interval=1 # update interval in seconds
Start the countdown
countdown $start_timestamp $end_timestamp $update_interval
echo "Upload complete! Happy New Year 2024!"
