Programming :: Bash - Read Content Of File To Variable And Use This Variable In For Loop ?

Aug 21, 2009

I'm trying to read content of file to variable and use this variable in for loop. The problem is, when I have c++ comment style in file - /*. Spaces in line are also interpreted as separated lines.

For example:

Code:

Changing $files to "$files" eliminate these problems but causes that whole content of variable is treated as one string (one execution of loop).

Programming :: Make A New Variable With The String From The Old Variable Btut Without Any Plus Sign?

Apr 7, 2010

my script has a variable which comes in the form +00.00 +0.00 -00.00 or -0.00 (the numbers can be any in that form) for any that have a + symbol I need to remove the +, but if it has a - symbol it needs to stay.

i need to make a new variable with the string from the old variable btut without any plus sign. I have tried a lot of different ways with no success, each thing I tried either left the + or removed the entire string. I think this should work but doesn't

foo=+12.40
bar=${foo#+}

General :: Use The Value Of One Variable To Generate A Name For Another Variable?

Jul 25, 2010

can i use the value of one variable to generate a name for another variable? for example i want to use the counter from a "do while" loop to name and define a variable each time the loop executes. for example

objectnames1=`ls -a`
objectnames2=`ls -a`
etc.

i don't have a script yet but each time through the loop i intend to cd to a particular directory and then define a variable containing a list of each object in that directory as values. for the rest of the script to work, each variable generated has to be unique, and i can't think of a good way to accomplish this.

if using a value from one variable to name another isn't possible, can anyone think of a more elegant solution? i know limited syntax but i'm willing to read up...

But as you can see in the input, in the 2nd "Event", the line containing "age" is not present, but in the output my code is printing the 1rst age value twice. The correct output should be blank in the age field for 2nd line in the output like this:

JOHN_JOHNSON|m||23c
MARY_JEAN|f|25|11d

Programming :: Using Variable In A Command?

Apr 14, 2011

i'm trying to execute a shell script, i'm trying to use the values in an array for use in a sed command:

sed -n '/Sales ID: ${array[$i]}/,/Totals:/p'

that command creates empty files. so my guess is that its not recognizing the array as an array but as text?
how would i be able to utilize the array in the command? i got it, didnt think that if i doubled up the single quotes that it would work, but this worked:

sed -n '/Sales ID: '${array[$i]'}/,/Totals:/p'

Programming :: Variable Substitution In BASH?

Feb 17, 2011

Just a simple BASH for loop to read the file path from a text file (clean.txt) echo the variable for debug purposes, and scp it to a server I have using port 50 for SSH.

I've already formatted the entries in clean.txt to handle spaces correctly, using sed replacement.

Example from the clean.txt file:

Code:

/MP3/NAS000000001/Barenaked Ladies/Barenaked Ladies - Barenaked For The Holidays/14 Deck the Stills.mp3

Programming :: Read A Foldername Into A Variable?

Jul 14, 2010

I am trying to write a script which can read the names of all folders within a given folder into separate variables. In effect, if a folder contains a folder "Folder1", "Folder2", "Folder3", the script would read those names into variables such as:

Variable1 = "Folder1"
Variable2 = "Folder2"
Variable3 = "Folder3"

I have tried fiddling with the find . command, but without any success.
