Programming :: Bash - Searching Strings For Array Elements?

Apr 30, 2010

...and returning the index of the found element in its array.

I have:

for ((i=0; i < ${#array1[@]}; i++)); do
# Read each line of the file test
if [[ $(eval "sed -n '$(($i+1))'p test") == *${array2[0]}* ]]
stuff

I want to find the index of the found substring in array2 and only if it isn't found, move on to the next element of array2. I don't know the size of array2 so that [0] has just got to go.

Programming :: Grep Searching For Strings With (apostrophe)

Nov 10, 2010

I am trying a search for a pattern in the file. I can have any character in the pattern. I am pretty sure I will have $, ", ', ^, ` etc., The Problem I am facing is if I use "" (double quotes) to enclose the pattern, it gives special meaning to $, ^ and " within the string. I have no control over the pattern input. I am getting it from some other file. On the other hand, If I use '' (single quotes) to enclose the pattern, it gives special meaning to the ' (apostrophe) within the string and terminates the pattern prematurely. How do I disable the special meaning these characters have? For example, in perl, I could enclose the pattern within Q and E. Is there an equivalent in grep pattern expression? I could find one in the man page of grep. Is there a solution to this problem?

Debian Programming :: Searching For A List Of Strings In File With Python

Oct 14, 2013

I'm trying to search for several strings, which I have in a .txt file line by line, on another file.

So the idea is, take input.txt and search for each line in that file in another file, let's call it rules.txt.

So far, I've been able to do this, to search for individual strings:

Code: Select allimport re

shakes = open("output.csv", "r")

for line in shakes:
    if re.match("STRING", line):
        print line,

How can I change this to input the strings to be searched from another file?

So far I haven't been able to.

Programming :: Read Any Given Maze.txt Into An Internal Dynamically Allocated Array Of Strings?

Apr 26, 2011

I am looking for an easy way to convert any given maze.txt of any size to a internal array of strings(dynamically allocated). Important is that dimensions of the maze (row, col) shouldn't be written by the user instead they have to be somehow read from the file. This is not my homework assignment! It is a small part of a project that i never dealt with. I never read files to C string.... I made it for specific maze dimensions, but want it to work with any given .txt file.

Programming :: Bash Function For Searching Files ?

Jun 15, 2011

I'm making a small script for searching and doing some operations with photos, but I'm kinda stuck on this little function:

Code:

function findallformat {
prefix=""
if [ $1 = -pre ] then

[code]....

That function should find for every file with a certain type; and you can specify a prefix using a "-pre" followed by the prefix that you want to search. The format should be "stackable", so you can use as many types that you want, without repeating the same function on the code.

Example: findallformat -pre IMG_ .JPG .CR2 #That should search files that start with "IMG_" and finishes with .JPG and .CR2. My problem it's that, when I try to use it on the script, it says "bash: syntax error near `token' unexpected `}'"

Programming :: Bash : Searching For Info And Changing The Color Of Keywords In The Results?

May 5, 2011

(bare with me as I am sort of new with scripting) I am trying to figure out how to run a script that does a basic chkconfig and to get only those services that are running, but changing the color of "on" to red in my output file. Here is what I am working with so far:

Quote:

#/bin/bash
RED=$(tput setaf 1)
BLK=$(tput setaf 0)

[code]....

*I had to substitute a "-" and <colon_symbol> for ":" in front of the on's, because the forum thought they were smiley faces (i.e. n) how to make the "on" to be red while the rest of everything remains in black text. I have been trying to read up on sed and awk, but it is still pretty much a mystery to me right now. There will be other things in the output file that I wouldn't want a rogue "on" to be in red, so just the instances of "on" in that one chkconfig return.

Programming :: Bash Array - More Than One Value Per Item?

Nov 28, 2010

Is it possible to have an array in Bash that can hold more than one value per item?

For example I would like an array like this:

Entry 1: apple, green
Entry 2: banana, yellow

And be able to call the fruit names and their colour in a list. Something like:

for fruit in "${array[@]}"
do
echo a $fruit is $colour
done

If that is possible, is there a limit to values per item? For example some entries in an array could be:

Entry 1: apple, green, round, pips, tree
Entry 2: banana, yellow, long, skin, tree

And I would like to pick out the values such as #3 being "round" and "long".

Programming :: Bash To Loop Through Mysql Select Array?

I need to know how to assign a result from a select. I am clueless on the sytax. I am trying this in bash. Maybe I am not assigning the array right. It gives me the whole row in the echo instead of just field a. How do I get fieldA = a in the select. Note script was stripped for security on database info but the syntax is same.

Code:

#!/bin/sh
results="$(mysql --user ${DB_USER} -p${DB_PWD} ${DB_NAME} -Bse 'select a,b,c,d from tblMytable')"
for rows in "${results[@]}"

Programming :: Bash - Reading Csv Delimited File To Array And For Further Manipulation?

Jan 6, 2010

I am trying to do this:

1. Read csv delimited file line1 and store all values in array

2. Use the values stored in the array and replace values in other text file with them

3. read line2 in the cvs file and repeat the process

4. Do above for all lines in the cvs file

for example:

file1.cvs content:

text1,text2,text3,"text 4"
a1,a2,3,"a 4"

file.txt content:

some text $array1$ some text
some text $array2$ some text

1. read line 1 - text1,text2,text3,"text 4" put each value in array X[] lines that contain spaces in cvs will have double quotes

2. read x[1] and replace value $array1$ (in file.txt) with x[1]read x[2] and replace value $array2$ (in file.txt) with x[2] and so on

Can above be accomplished in BASH and how?

Programming :: Find A Substring/member In A String/array Using Bash?

This may be a basic bash array/string operation related question, but I couldn't find any direct answer. So here it goes:I have a lot of data sorted in various directories. All directories need same processing except for a special group of directories. I have a symbolic link of the script in discussion in each directory. I want the script to get the name of the current directory, check if that belongs to special group and do specific operations.So I get the name of the directory

Code:

Programming :: Creating Array From Command Output (Bash Shell Script)

Programming :: Parsing Text Files In Bash / Cant Seem To Read The Array Back?

May 29, 2011

PI'm trying to write a script to list all open ports in the MINIUNPND chain in iptables and use the procotol, port and destination ip to open ports on another router using upnpc.Here is the output of iptables -L MINIUPNPD

Code:
>iptables -L MINIUPNPD
Chain MINIUPNPD (1 references)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere 192.168.3.124 tcp dpt:19955
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere 192.168.3.124 tcp dpt:20054
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere 192.168.3.130 udp dpt:10654
ACCEPT tcp -- anywhere 192.168.3.121 tcp dpt:29955
code....

No matter what i do i cant seem to remove the first 4 characters from the MYPROT array to leave only the digits. Also i cant seem to read the array back???

I thought it would simply be a loop reading each line and passing the fields in variables, executing upnpc commands i need then moving to the next line of the file until it reached the EOF.
