Salon Appointment Scheduler - Build a Salon Appointment Scheduler

Tell us what’s happening:

I am in the process of completing the project, but am having trouble getting the script to pass the following tests:

  • You should display a numbered list of the services you offer before the first prompt for input, each with the format #) <service>. For example, 1) cut, where 1 is the service_id

  • If you pick a service that doesn’t exist, you should be shown the same list of services again

although I believe I did handle this by creating a function called display and then calling that in main menu before asking for the and then reading it, as instructed.

Your code so far

#!/bin/bash

PSQL="psql -X --username=freecodecamp --dbname=salon --tuples-only -c"

echo -e "\n~~~~~ Salon ~~~~~\n"

display() {
    AVAILABLE_SERVICES=$($PSQL "SELECT * FROM services ORDER BY service_id")
    echo "$AVAILABLE_SERVICES" | while read -r SERVICE_ID BAR NAME 
    do
        echo "$SERVICE_ID) $NAME"
    done
}

main_menu() {
    display
    while true; 
    do
        
        MAIN_MENU_SELECTION=""
        
        if [[ $1 ]]; then
            echo -e "\n$1"
        fi
        
        echo "How may I help you?"
        read MAIN_MENU_SELECTION

        case $MAIN_MENU_SELECTION in
            1) style ;;
            2) color ;;
            3) cut ;;
            4) exit && break ;;
            *) echo "Please enter a valid option." ;;
        esac
    done
}

style() {
    echo style ok
}

color() {
    echo color ok
}

cut() {
    echo cut ok
}

exit() {
    echo exit ok
}


main_menu

here is my info in the services table:

salon=> select * from services;
 service_id | name  
------------+-------
          1 | style
          2 | color
          3 | cut
(3 rows)
