General :: Find The Bash Source Files Of Programs In Mac OSX?

Jan 6, 2011

I am currently writing some convenience methods for my terminal in my bash_profile and am sure if what I am writing is "the best way". I figure a good way to verify whether what I'm doing is right or not would be to find some source code of more established programs and see how they do it.My question then is, where can I find this code on my Mac? An example is, with Macports installed, where is the source code that opens the port interactive console when I type nothing but "port" in my shell?(I added Linux in the title even though I am on a Mac because I assume the answer would be the same for both)

General :: Find Duplicate Files Using Bash Script ?

Jun 8, 2010

What kind of method to find the duplicates files on linux,

1.how to find just using the file name, sometimes i figure out people often to copy their files to another directory and i want to find out if there any same file name in the linux box.

2. what about if i want to find the duplicate files based on contents of the file, example is in picture file if users store picture files from digital camera first they just save the file name in default but when they want to give that picture to others they will rename it, i've been used method md5 for this situation in python script but it takes long time

I'm asking this question just to know to use bash script a lot in work and i want to test out fdupes at home, is fdupes use similar md5 scan to find duplicate files?

Ubuntu :: Find Command Does Not Find All Files?

Aug 9, 2011

The find command does not seem to find all files in my directory hierarchy. My home directory is automounted from a server. The command to illustrate this is:find | sed -e 's/^.///' | sed -e 's//.*//' | sort -uThe result misses several directories. Likewise, a find of a particular file, like:find . -iname *sample* -printwhere sample_file.txt resides in one of the directories that is missing in the first find command, finds nothing

Programming :: Command For Find/Replace In Text Files (inc. Files In Sub-folders)?

Oct 11, 2010

I found this command that works great finding and replacing a simple string to another in files located in that folder and all sub-folders.

Code: find . -name '*.php' | xargs perl -pi -e 's/OldText/NewText/g'

The problem I have is that I need to replace a more complex string, like this: Old string: /mnt/stor6-wc2-dfw1/627896/982574/ New string: /mnt/stor8-wc2-dfw1/369587/302589/ There I don't know how to do it... since the / is what separates the old from the new strings, and the strings that I want to replace have / in it. Also, I would like to know how to specify under what folder replace the files, for example, I want that it search/replaces all files under /var/www/mysite/htdocs folder.

Programming :: Find And Replace A String In A File Using Perl Command From Bash Script?

Feb 14, 2011

I wanted to find and replace a string from a perl file. I have written a script in bash which runs the following command.

perl -pi -e "s/$findstring/$replacestring/" testfile
where as $findstring = print F_WC_TMP"$line
";
and $replaceString = $line = join ' ', split ' ', $line; print F_WC_TMP"$line
";

But when I am running the above command, i think it is replacing the $findstring with the above mentioned string and hence it contains a $line, it is looking for the variable $line and not finding the exact string. I am confused about how to search for a string that contains $ in it and replace it with another $string.

Programming :: Bash Script To Find Newest Files And Count Them?

Feb 25, 2010

I'm working on a bash script that will go through a directory, find the sub-directories that have been created since the last time the script ran, count the results, and output that integer (will most likely be '1' or less per each instance run) to a file. Give the circumstances, my previous (and very limited) experience with bash is not sufficient for me to pull this off. since it probably has bearing, is that my mail server stores files that it flags as viruses in a folder. It creates a sub-directory for each virus that it quarantines .I want to count those subdirectories and graph them with MRTG. Hence the script. I'm going to post what I've got so far and the purpose of it, because I'm told I have a very odd and efficient way of doing scripting.

[Code]...

But then it dawned on me that it wouldn't work because I would have to not count the directories that have already been counted and count the ones that have not been counted. Given that the purpose of this is to generate a graph about every 5 minutes, using find won't work because, to my knowledge, that will only find things based on whole day values, I need it almost down to the minute.
