Programming :: Pipe Output To 2 Files But Not STDOUT?

Mar 24, 2011

I want to have the output of a program go to 2 different files but not going to standard out. Is there a way to do this in bash? I know that in Z shell its really easy. omething like: Code: echo "test" >> file1 >> file2 Would work. But in Bash it doesn't seem that easy. I know that tee will send the output to 2 files but it also sends it to STDOUT.Something like:Code: echo "test" | tee -a file1 file2 Would put the word "test" in file1, file2, and STDOUT. Is there a way to just send the output to file1 and file2?

Debian Programming :: Stdout Piped To Awk -> Terminal Output Stutters

May 5, 2013

I'm piping stdout from mplayer to awk, but the output stutters.

Code: Select allmplayer audiofile.m4a 2>&1 | awk -vRS="
" '$1 ~ /A:/ {print $0; fflush();}'

Instead of a steady output of lines to the terminal, output only occurs after a few seconds, between 6 or 12. This happens whether the input is from mplayer or avconv/ffmpeg. This never used to happen (a few years ago) so I wondered whether an awk update caused this to happen.

Programming :: Libxml2: Removing Output On Stdout/stderr - Element CA Does Not Carry Attribute Maxlength

Jul 26, 2010

I'm using libxml2 to handle/manipulate some XML files. In order to check the consistency of a XML file, I have a DTD and I'm using the xmlValidateDtd method to compute the check.

However, when an error occures during the check (for example an attribute is missing in a XML tag), then libxml2 writes the error on the stdout/stderr. For exemple:

Code:

/home/XML/FreeFour.xml:18: element CA: validity error : Element CA does not carry attribute maxlength

The method return the right result (true or false depending on the check result), but occurring errors are written on the stdout/stderr, and I actually don't want that.

Programming :: GDB Terminates When Spawned From Shell

Nov 22, 2010

I want to spawn a GDB session from bash script and keep it working to interact it from outside. But when I start it in background (with '&' sigil).

Code: gdb -x gdb_script.txt ./a.out < gdb_pipe.fifo &
It executes passed script and terminates by itself (I do not pass any data or signals to it)

Code: Breakpoint 33, main (argc=1, argv=0xbffff0f4) at main.c:53
---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit---53
read_main_config();
(gdb) quit

A debugging session is active.
Inferior 1 [process 5957] will be killed.
Quit anyway? (y or n) [answered Y; input not from terminal] What can I do to make it alive?

Programming :: Using Stdout For More Than One Task?

Jun 30, 2009

I want to parse my mail log file and reuse the results but I'm having a hard time structuring the syntax. Something like:

Code:

grep hostname /var/log/mail.log |
grep NOQUEUE: |
sed -e 's/hostname postfix/smtpd/[[0-9]*]: //g'

at this point I want to redirect what I have in hand to a file but also ... fork? or split? whatever the term, to continue onward so that I can pipe the results further into wc -l or sort or programX. without having to re-loop through that huge log file.

Programming :: Cannot Redirect All Stdout And Stderr Into File

May 12, 2009

I have a little complex Makefile system. A parent Makefile call dozens of Makefiles in subdirctories. And the subdirctory Makefile calles shell script to do real building. I want to grab all output this Makefile system generate. So, i employ "make 2>&1 > make.log". but not all output messages are filed into make.log. The message generated by sub-makefile called shell script cannot be recorded into make.log. And another curiouse thing is, if i launch "make 2>&1 > make.log" in a perl script, all output do be sent into make.log.

Programming :: Capture The Stdout Of A Heredoc In A Variable?

Aug 12, 2010

Why doesn't this work?

Code:
cat | myvar=$(</dev/stdin) <<EOS
This is some content
EOS
echo "$myvar"

i have also tried several variants of cat in place of the redirection.

Code:
$(cat -)
$(cat)
$(cat /dev/stdin)

None of the variants print "This is some content"

I have a version that works:

Code:
myvar=$(cat <<EOS
This is some content
EOS
)
echo "$myvar"

but i don't like the syntax and it doesn't play nice in my editor with code folding.

General :: Expect: Line Seems To Match Exactly However Expect Thinks Not?

Jun 16, 2010

I am writing an expect script. At a certain point there is a rule that produces this debugging output:

Code:

expect: does " Address or name of remote host [x.x.x.x]? " (spawn_id exp8) match glob pattern " Address or name of remote host [x.x.x.x]? "? no This just times out When I use -exact for the expect keyword it does work What am I doing wrong? THe first should also match in my opinion because it is equal as well. Even if I remove the I still have the same issue if I try without -exact. I don't understand. I tried removing the but still got the same.

Debian Programming :: Assign Variable In Bash When Stdout Is Updated

Jan 17, 2014

I am writing a script that calls a program which writes a lot of lines to stdout continuosly. If the last line in stdout has some regex, THEN, certain variables are updated. My problem is that I don't know how to do that.

A simplified example would be (it's not my exact case, but it I write it here to clarify): suppose I issue a ping command (which writes output to stdout continuously). Every time that the response time is t=0.025 ms, THEN, VARIABLE1=(column1 of that line) and VARIABLE2=(column2 of that line).

I think the following code would work in awk (however, I want the variables in bash and I don't know how to export them)

Code: Select allping localhost |awk '{ if ( $8 == "time=0.025" ) var1=$1 var2=$2}'

In the previous code, awk analyzes each line of the output of the ping command as soon as it is created, so the variables $var1, $var2, ... are updated at the appropriate time. But I need the "real-time" updated values of $var1, $var2 in bash, for later use in the script.

Programming :: Control VI With Tcl And Expect?

Mar 7, 2011

I'm using expect to log into a remote server and run a script. I want to able to have expect edit the output from that script, on the remote server, in VI. Has anyone ever done this before, it seems as though the expect interpreter has nothing to expect once VI is started, the file pointer starts at the beginning of the line, and expect usually reads the characters before the pointer.

spawn ssh user1@$remote_server
expect "password: "
send "$password

Programming :: Redirecting Stdin / Stdout And Stderr For Program Run As Fork()/execl()?

Nov 24, 2010

I'm trying to write a program that will fork a series of FTP sessions. For each session, there should be separate input and output files associated with stdin and stdout/stderr.
I keep reading how I should be able to do that with dup2() in the child process before the execl(), but it's not working for me. Could someone please explain what I've done wrong? The program also has a 30-second sniper alarm for testing and killing of FTPs that go dormant for too long.

The code: (ftpmon.c)
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

[code]....

The output:

$ ftpmon
Connected to gila-crstest.gilacorp.com (172.16.20.8).
220 (vsFTPd 2.0.1)
ftp> waitpid(): Interrupted system call

Why am I getting the ftp> prompt? If the dup2() works, shouldn't it be taking input from my script and not my terminal? In stead, it does nothing, and winds up getting killed after 30 seconds. The log file is created, but it's empty after the run.

Programming :: Redirecting Stdin / Stdout And Stderr And Finding Files Name And Other Stats?

Aug 8, 2010

I'm working on an application used for backup/archiving. That can be archiving contents on block devices, tapes, as well as regular files. The application stores data in hard packed low redundancy heaps with multiple indexes pointing out uniquely stored, (shared), fractions in the heap.

And the application supports taking and reverting to snapshot of total storage on several computers running different OS, as well as simply taking on archiving of single files. It uses hamming code diversity to defeat the disk rot, instead of using raid arrays which has proven to become pretty much useless when the arrays climb over some terabytes in size. It is intended to be a distributed CMS (content management system) for a diversity of platforms, with focus on secure storage/archiving. i have a unix shell tool that acts like gzip, cat, dd etc in being able to pipe data between applications.

Example:

dd if=/dev/sda bs=1b | gzip -cq > my.sda.raw.gz

the tool can handle different files in a struct array, like:

Code:

enum FilesOpenStatusValue {
FileIsClosed = 0,
FileIsOpen,

[code]....

Is there a better way of getting the file name of the redirected file, (respecting the fact that there may not always exist such a thing as a file name for a redirection pipe).
Should i work with inodes instead, and then take a completely different approach when porting to non-unix platforms? Why isn't there a system call like get_filename(stdin); ?

If you have any input on this, or some questions, then please don't hesitate to post in this thread. To add some offtopic to the thread - Here is a performance tip: When doing data shuffling on streams one should avoid just using some arbitrary record length, (like 512 bytes). Use stat() to get the recommended block size in stat.st_blksize and use copy buffers of that size to get optimal throughput in your programs.

Programming :: HTML To PHP To EXPECT Formatting?

Apr 13, 2011

I wrote an expect script that tests user authentication against a RADIUS server. The username is an email address, including an @ sign. I recently wrote an HTML/PHP front end to allow others to input username/password into a form and then see the results when they hit submit. Expect code that takes two args username, and password

Code:

expect "#"
send "test aaa group radius [lindex $argv 0] [lindex $argv 1] new-code
"expect "#"

[code]....

Every works as it's supposed to, except for the output of the script. When it displays on the webpage, it's segmented weirdly with  all throughout. What I've found is when I remove the @ sign in the username input, it fixes it. Is there any part of HTML or PHP that treats the @ as a special character? 1 more thing is that I have another HTML/PHP/EXP script that works fine with the @.
