i just want the characters which are to the left of the first .(dot) in FQDN name. I could get it using substr and split function,but how do i get it through regex.
Im trying to extract the href of a <link> tag from a html page however as some links contain further preferences I seem to be unable to extract them, do you have any idea how I can write this: Link:
I'm fairly new to Perl and regular expressions. I have a large collection of files with their file names in the following general format: string - another string with spaces (2004) [year].ext I would like to know how I could create a regex to separate out:
the first string another string with spaces year extension
If you know of a better way of doing it without regular expressions, I would be happy to hear that way too.
I'm trying to find out how to extract the string between the 2 <title> tags: <title>this is what i want</title>.I found lots of results but nothing I've tried works.. EG:$page =~ m/<title>($.)</title>/gism;
I have written a regular expression (tested in regexpal and regextester alpha something) with which I want to replace something like code...
but it only matches functions which occupy one line only, despite my tests showing multiple line matching in javascript testers online and using the m and s flags (which should make it multi line no?)
# /etc/nsswitch.conf # # Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality. # If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try: # `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.
Its my first post in here so please be patient I am trying to use regex in perl script to detect allowed words from the file and then print output to the screen.
As an example : I have text file with orders and returns :
My question: is it possible to make sure that i am ony outputing to the screen orders based on few conditions like Item,order form e.g. online.And is it possible to have multiple matches (Item2 only diplay if ordered online etc)
I need to extract the Info from the RC column for the first 4 players of liverpool. The test code i have does the same,but can anyone show me a better way of doing it.I could do it easily with gawk -F"|" and print the respective column,but i need to do this in perl.
I'm writing a bash script that executes a few perl scripts. One of the perl scripts that I need to execute requires two arguments with it. The arguments are stored in a txt file, each line contains a hostname and its corresponding IP address separated by a ":" (colon), the txt file looks like this below:
[Code]...
I'm not sure if it's the best way to accomplish this but here it goes. In the bash file, let's call it getHosts.sh, I create an array and assign each line of the file to an element in that array. I then think I need to create a new array where I take the hostname (which is before the ":") separate it from its IP address and place the IP address on a new line just below the hostname (this way I can reference to it like $hostNames[$x] would be the hostname, and $hostNames[$x+1] would be its IP address). So the new array would now look like this below:
In a bash-script, only the case if a regular expression does not match is relevant.herefore I used the exclamation mark !. But where to place it?
These two work fine, but are they equivalent? Code: if ! [[ $abc =~ $pattern ]]; then or Code: if [[ ! $abc =~ $pattern ]]; then Where is the ! placed more correct?
I'm just starting out with bash scripting (yesterday, really). I want to add a file to each user's home directory, pretty simple really, and send it out via our Apple Remote Desktop system to our Macs. Here is my script: Code: #!/bin/bash
for i in $(ls -d /Users/*) doif [ -e $i/.tcshrc ] thenecho "$i/.tcshrc exists!"elseecho "$i/.tcshrc does not exist"
I'm using bash scripting to find any file that matches a path governed by the following regular expression:
"(monthly|nightly).[0-9]+/home/(user1|user2)/.mailbox/" to match files like: monthly.9/home/user1/.mailbox/l23131564 nightly.15/home/user2/.mailbox/cur/6546213
So those of you that know me will agree that when it comes to awk I don't usually ask a lot of questions ... however this one has me stumped. I am guessing I have missed something obvious but for the life of me (and I have tested at great length) I cannot find it So the scenario is this: The following awk code should identify all versions of libgpg-error within the attached file (see below) and only show one for each version:
I'm writing a script to read user input for a computername.I need a check that a given userinput is valid.Right now I use grep like this (for sure not optimal):Quote:
if echo "$name" | grep -q '[^a-z][^A-Z][^0-9]'; then echo error else
the following works and BASH doesn't complain, but VIM highlights the closing square bracket is if it sees a syntax error. Is there a better way to express regex in a case statement or is this an issue with VIM?
Both lines are new lines, so they won't be inline. Other than that, they are all constants, I want this regex match to be an if statement rather than returning match string. so if the $content variable contains some string that matches:
am trying to find a proper regex to match the two numbers in the following log entry.
Code: 15:08:16.142 INF Found 64468 15:08:16.142 ERR [Uniform test code=64469]
Basically the pattern I'm looking for will match the two different numbers spanned across two lines.Thought I need to use multi-line mode as follow but this doesn't match on [URL]...
I have a sed match that matches for certain string of a regex expression:
Code: tname=$(echo "$contents" | sed -n 'some pattern')
How do I match for multiple strings in the $contents and return them as an array? for example
Code: contents="this is a text, just to match patterns, here is another text to be matched" the sed func would be able to recognize both "text"s, but only one is outputted?
Possible to put it in an array? so ${bar[0]} gives one and ${bar[1]} gives another
I am trying to construct a quick regex that will search for six lines of text without a clear line break between them. It only needs to search, not replace, as I will be using in gEdit (with regex plugin) anyway.
It's for editing subtitle files. The video player I will be using them on can only cope with 3-line subtitles, so I just need to edit any in the srt file that contain four or more. There won't be many so I can do it manually. For example:
26 00:01:47,357 --> 00:01:49,359 a motivated business professional with clearly defined goals.
[Code].....
but .* seems to mean "any character, or none", so that doesn't work. My experience of regular expressions is limited, but I do know they are very powerful when used correctly!
What I am doing is reading the text from a text document and storing all of the text inside of a ArrayList. I then set one of the values of the Arraylist as a string. I want to use regular expressions find out what the first two characters of the String are. if first two characters = "//" then function(); I only care about the first two characters though. If you need any more information, just ask.
