I have many files in a folder from which I need to extract some contents, these are basically text files wich have individual lines with (i.e)
name: john
address: whatever
phone: 123456
Some caveats
1. Sometimes a line might be missing.
name: johnn
phone: 123456
2. Lines are not in the same line-numbers across the files I did try some things with awk based on google searches but I couldn't extract the data of each file into a single line (this is the ultimate goal):
john,whatever,123456
I don't have knowledge other than having put some bash scripts together for backup jobs, so I am open to install anything that could to pull this off.
I'm trying to figure this error message out. This little script is supposed to tweet my laptop's IP address, as a cron job, I'm hopeful that it would do so even if it's stolen. This is a variant of one that works, but this doesn't, and I can't see a difference in the curl line of either one.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
user="xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx"
pass="xxxxxxxxxxx"
wget [URL]
TWEET=`sed -n 1p index.html`
curl --basic --user "$user:$pass" --data-ascii "status=$TWEET" "[URL]"
rm -f index.html
exit
This is the error message.
Code:
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: status=66.183.103.67; Cannot allocate memory
{"request":"/statuses/update.json","error":"Client must provide a 'status' parameter with a value."}
Why does curl think the status is the URL?
I just received a spreadsheet. Column B contains thousands of rows that look like this:
Giant Red Pencil 0.99
Case 2.99
Green Box 1.49
Ruler 0.59
Spiral Ring 0.10
So each cell contains the item and price. I need the corresponding cells in column C to contain only the price like this:
0.99
2.99
1.49
0.59
0.10
How do I extract just the price from column B and put it in column C ?
i am on processing text tasks And i found that if you assign a text to a variable is chomp'ed automatically the newline
Code:
variable=$(cat file.txt)
The problem is i can only access the items/lines using:
Code:
for line in $variable
do
echo $line
# Other commands
done
how do i convert this to an indexed array. More importantly, how do i get access to individual $line[0], ..., $line[n] Another thing, if the file.txt, has lines with spaces it is a mess using the for...in..., but echoing prints line by line...o_0
I need to insert 3-4 lines of text to the beginning of a text file. The file is a largish MYSQL dump, the result of a backup shell script. This shell script should insert the required text.I've wrestled with sed, but lost.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have to delete a certain line of text from the a textfile via ubuntu's shell scripting.I have done research, and it seems that most people advocate the usage of sed /d option. sed makes does not edit the text file. Hence, most options I discovered involved the use of a temporary variable/textfile and then overwriting the old file with the temporary new file. Is there anyway whereby I can bypass the use of temporary storage containers? I hope there is any magical combination of commands to edit the file directly.

I want to display the contents of a particular log file (simple text file, I mean in Linux). But there is a problem: The contents need to be organized in a fixed format. Have a look at this log file:
sampleLog.txt
Code:
User Name: XYZ
Reported Problems Description: Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah!
[code]....
So, while displaying the contents of above file on a web page, I want to format the field names found in the log file: User Name:, Reported Problems Description:, and Remarks:. These fields may contain a variable length of text and no specific line number is assumed for them to appear on.
The desired output should look like this:
User Name: XYZ
Reported Problems Description: Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah!

Well, what I am trying to do may sound wierd to some of you. The filed "Reported Problems Description:" can possible contain text which embeds colon (.

a sed command to add a text before line number in text file? I have text file with 500 lines, and i want to add 3 more lines with text after line 300, OR before line 302, isn't no problem.

I am trying to extract 2 numbers from a same file and my goal is to print them both in another file, on the same line, separated with a space. I have to do that for 20 files and I would like to have therefore 20 lines like this in the output file. It would look like this :
Quote:
number1_file1 number2_file1
number1_file2 number2_file2
...
...
number_1_file20 number2_file20
So far, I did only extract one number and got an output file like this :
Quote:
number1_file1
number1_file2
...
...
number1_file20
And I did this by running a bash script with the following content :
Code:
#!/bin/bash
ls execution$1$2*.* | while read filename
do
cat $filename | grep -e "Total aborts:" | cut -d " " -f3 >> abort$1$2.dat
done
$1 and $2 are just strings to identify the different files I want to consider in this loop. This script works well to extract a number which is the 3rd field of a line starting with "Total aborts:".Now, how could I change this script to do what I mentioned above (i.e. extracting two numbers from two different lines) ? The second number is the 3rd field of a line starting with "Total throughput:"
I have this string ./DAT000728-652523058.job.I want to extract the no between DAT and - sign. I want 728. I dont want 000728.echo ./DAT000725-560162365.job | cut -d'T' -f2 | cut -d'-' -f1 I am getting 000728.string can be ./DAT326822-652523058.job also. then i need 326822
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create an application that monitors, among other things, what site the user is currently viewing. I would like to know if there is any way to get the current URL from the Firefox's address bar on a Linux machine. I know that under Windows I can use the DDE server approach, but under Linux this task is proving very tricky. I've considered an approach involving an extension to Firefox, but this would require the user to install the said extension himself. Which is not something I want. If an extension can be installed by a different program's installer than that could work, but I don't know if that's possible or not.

I am trying to get the metadata out from an image file in python. I have tried using PIL but it does not give me the data I am looking for (mostly just got a bunch of hex code) and I have no idea how to use ImageMagick, the python module is poorly documented and I can't find any examples on the net.The info I need is stuff like camera model, if flash was used, focal length, exposure time, date, etc.. pretty much the same info I get when I look at the "Image" tab on properties in Nautilus on Ubuntu.
What I am doing is writing a script that will iterate through a lot of pictures and put all this metadata into MySQL. I chose python since it is simple and I am familiar with it. But I can't find a good way to get that metadata from within python.

I've spent most of the evening browsing the web, trying many things I've found on various forums, but nothing seems to work.
I have a test.txt file containing many lines like the following ones :
...
<insert_random_text>228.00 €<insert_more_random_text>
<insert_random_text>17.50 €<insert_more_random_text>
<insert_random_text>1238.13 €<insert_more_random_text>
...
And I want to extract :
...
228.00
17.50
1238.13
...
There is always one occurrence of € in each line. I want the numeric value that precedes this € occurrence. The random text (before and after) may contain numbers too, so the € may be important to parse, in order to correctly identify the number to return. The last character that precedes the number to extract is always a ">" (coming from an HTML tag).
I have a requirement where I want to extract the full name of the process running in my box. I tired various options of ps. The wide option gave me the full command but that contains command, the interpreter and also the arguments passed.
Code:

Is there any way from ps or any other command I can extract the full name of the command
Desired Output :

/path/to/exe/myexe.sh or myexe.sh
I have a huge file which has 450G. Its format is as below
x1 50020 A 1
x1 50021 B 8
x1 50022 C 9
[code]....
Now, I want to extract a subset from this file. In this subset, column 1 is x10, column 2 is from 600000 to 30000000. I wrote the following perl script but it doesn't work:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$file1 = $ARGV[0]; # Input file
$file2 = $ARGV[1]; # Output file
[code]...
I guess the input file and output file are both too big that my script can't handle it.
A strange question, I guess. I'm running processes called from a c main program. The calling is performed (for now) as: FILE * res=popen(ulimit -t 1; prg args); So I can read the stdout of the process as a file and analyze it. The time limit is important for me.
2 questions:
1. How do I get to know if the process terminated on its own or by the ulimit?
2. How do I limit to times that are less than 1 sec (I have many of those).
I know that setrlimit exists, just before I change my whole approach I wanted to see if I can deal with these things from the outside.
I have a file which has the output as shown below:
Code:

I am trying to write commands that extracts the height and width of a video file via ffmpeg. I have the following working so far:
This gives the following answer in widthxheight format with an extra , 720x480,

If you need to know this is what ffmpeg -i videofile.mov 2>&1 gives as output
