I have a relatively simple BASH script to send mail from my Raspberry Pi. The first argument is the Subject line and the second is a string of data files to be attached.
It is basically working when I specify the message body as a file (line 6). But if I try to create a text sting containing the date as the message body it fails (line7). Here is my script:
#!/bin/bash
#echo $2
# To
TO="me#hotmail.com"
# Message
MESSAGE="output/MessageBody.txt"
MESSAGEx="Midnight `date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z'` Pi report"
echo $MESSAGE
echo $MESSAGEx
temp=$(echo $2 | tr ";" "\n")
declare -a attargs
for att in $temp; do
attargs+=( "-A" "$att" )
done
# Sending email using /bin/mail
/usr/bin/mail -s "$1" "$TO" ${attargs[#]} < $MESSAGEx
Here is the output from this command
/usr/pgms/sendtome.sh "test message" "/mnt/usbdrive/output/JSONstart.txt;/mnt/usbdrive/output/Outback_error.log;/mnt/usbdrive/output/OutbackReaderPrint.txt"
when I specify MESSAGEx as the message body:
/mnt/usbdrive/output/MessageBody.txt
Midnight 2019-08-14 07:40:31 MDT Pi report
/usr/pgms/sendtome.sh: line 22: $MESSAGEx: ambiguous redirect
If I use MESSAGE, ie the text file reference, it works.
How can it create a message body text paragraph which contains the date or some other item? Thanks....RDK
There's a number of issues here.
You should generally quote strings. Without quoting, the string after < is split (hence the error message) and the array you took so much care to collect will lose its purpose.
The thing after < needs to be the name of a file. In Bash you can use a here string <<<"$MESSAGEx" but the common and simple portable solution is to echo (or better printf) its value into a pipe.
You should prefer lower case for your private variable names, but this is mainly a stylistic recommendation. (There are reserved variables like PATH and SHELL which you really don't want to clobber; POSIX reserves upper case variable names for system use.)
Here's a refactoring which attempts to address these concerns.
#!/bin/bash
to="me#hotmail.com"
# Message
#msgfile="output/MessageBody.txt"
msgbody="Midnight `date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z'` Pi report"
#echo "$msgfile"
#echo "$msgbody"
declare -a attargs
for att in $(echo "$2" | tr ";" "\n"); do
attargs+=( "-A" "$att" )
done
/usr/bin/mail -s "$1" "${attargs[#]}" "$to"<<< "$msgbody"
Perhaps a better design would be to just shift the first argument and then use "$#" as the list of files to attach.
I am trying to call edbplus to count a table from a command-line linux shell script, but I have been retrieving from edbplus the response number with others outputs in the same response, I am trying to retrieve from it only an integer response number.
#!/bin/sh
COUNT=`./edbplus.sh -silent user/password#localhost:5444/mydb<<-EOF
SET PAGESIZE 0 FEEDBACK OFF VERIFY OFF HEADING OFF ECHO OFF
SELECT COUNT(ID) FROM MYTABLE
EXIT;
EOF`
echo $COUNT
Response:
$ echo $COUNT
6-------------------d always takes 2 parameters: variable_name value
Do you know how get only the integer number?
If the 1st value is going to be integer. Please try the below commands
echo $COUNT | cut -d - -f 1
(or)
if only one int value if required, then please try
echo $COUNT | cut -c 1
To solve it from EDB perspective:
If the below flags are used in EDB in single line, then the above issue would have caused.
SET PAGESIZE 0
SET FEEDBACK OFF
SET VERIFY OFF
SET HEADING OFF
SET ECHO OFF
Kindly update it as above and provide it in individual lines.
My shell script executes a SQL to fetch the data in the following format:
JOB_ID_001|[PROD] This is a mail subject one ${application_date}|a#example.com,b#example.com
JOB_ID_002|[PROD] This is a mail subject two ${application_date}|c#example.com,b#example.com
I want to split this pipe-separated string, but the output looks very odd as follows:
JOB_ID_001[0]
JOB_ID_001[1]
JOB_ID_001[2]
This[0]
This[1]
This[2]
is[0]
is[1]
is[2]
a[0]
a[1]
a[2]
mail[0]
mail[1]
mail[2]
subject[0]
subject[1]
subject[2]
one[0]
one[1]
one[2]
${application_date}[0]
${application_date}[1]
${application_date}[2]
example.com,b#example.com[0]
example.com,b#example.com[1]
example.com,b#example.com[2]
JOB_ID_002[0]
JOB_ID_002[1]
JOB_ID_002[2]
This[0]
This[1]
This[2]
is[0]
is[1]
is[2]
a[0]
a[1]
a[2]
mail[0]
mail[1]
mail[2]
subject[0]
subject[1]
subject[2]
two[0]
two[1]
two[2]
${application_date}[0]
${application_date}[1]
${application_date}[2]
ple.com,b#example.com[0]
ple.com,b#example.com[1]
ple.com,b#example.com[2]
My desired output is:
JOB_ID_001
[PROD] This is a mail subject one ${application_date}
a#example.com,b#example.com
JOB_ID_002
[PROD] This is a mail subject two ${application_date}
c#example.com,b#example.com
So that I can continue with those strings.
My shell script is as follows:
email_configs=(`sqlplus -silent $DB_CONN <<-EOF
whenever sqlerror exit 1 oserror exit oscode
set heading off feedback off echo off verify off pagesize 0
$sql_subject_of_mail;
exit;
EOF`)
for i in "${!email_configs[#]}"
do
email_config=${email_configs[i]}
IFS='|' read -r -a email_config_array <<< "$email_config"
job_id=$email_config_array[0]
subject_of_mail=$email_config_array[1]
to_mail_id=$email_config_array[2]
echo $job_id
echo $subject_of_mail
echo $to_mail_id
done
I checked some alternate solutions from this page, but in the output ${application_date} part is missing or there is some other problem.
Can anyone have an idea about my mistake?
The $email_configs array is not being set correctly. It's using spaces as the array delimiters, not newlines.
Rather than set an array, read the output of sqlplus in a loop.
while IFS='|' read -r job_id subject_of_mail to_mail_id
do
echo "$job_id"
echo "$subject_of_mail"
echo "$to_mail_id"
done < <(sqlplus -silent $DB_CONN <<-EOF
whenever sqlerror exit 1 oserror exit oscode
set heading off feedback off echo off verify off pagesize 0
$sql_subject_of_mail;
exit;
EOF
)
Need to extract the below query data along with header in csv file using shell script.
Below is the query.
SELECT SourceIdentifier,SourceFileName,ProfitCentre2,PlantCode,
tax_retur ReturnPeriod,document_number DocumentNumber,TO_CHAR(invoice_generation_date,'YYYY-MM-DD')
Docume,Original,customer_name CustomerName,NVL(sns_pos,new_state_code)POS,PortCode,NEW_HSN_CODE HSNorSAC,(SGSATE+UTGSATE) Stat,(SGS+UT)StateUT,Userde FROM arbor.INV_REPO_FINA WHERE UPPER(document_type)='INV' AND UPPER(backout_flag)='VALID' AND new_gst_id_new IS NOT NULL AND new_charges<>0 AND taxable_adj=0

Could please let me know if below approach to fetch data using shell script is correct and script is correct.

In short: the ; is missing from the end of the select statement.
Some unrequested advice:
I think spool will put extra stuff into your file (at least some new lines), a redirect is better, further the first line is not db-related:
echo "SourceIdentifier;SourceFileName;ProfitCentre2..." > $file
I recommend to generate the csv format right in the select query, later it will be more headache (you can escape there what you want):
$query = "select SourceIdentifier || ';' || SourceFileName || ';' || ProfitCentre2 ... ;"
So querying the DB (I think capital -S is the right one) plus for the formatting of the records (and maybe you want to format your columns too):
sqlplus -S username/password#Oracle_SID >> $file << EOF
set linesize 32767 pagesize 0 heading off
$query
EOF
For me this one is working but one empty line before first query and second query is coming. Empty line remove using awk command
#!/bin/bash
FILE="A.csv"
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus -s username/password#Oracle_SID<<EOF
SET PAGESIZE 50000 COLSEP "," LINESIZE 20000 FEEDBACK OFF HEADING off
SPOOL $FILE
select 'TYPE_OF_CALL_V','SWITCH_CALL_TYPE_V','RECORD_TYPE_V','TARF_TYPE_V' from dual;
SELECT TYPE_OF_CALL_V,SWITCH_CALL_TYPE_V,RECORD_TYPE_V,TARF_TYPE_V FROM TABLE;
SPOOL OFF
EXIT

awk 'NF > 0' $FILE > out.txt

I have many data files in this format:
-1597.5421
-1909.6982
-1991.8743
-2033.5744
But I would like to merge them all into one data file with each original data file taking up one row with spaces in between so I can import it in excel.
-1597.5421 -1909.6982 -1991.8743 -2033.5744
-1789.3324 -1234.5678 -9876.5433 -9999.4321
And so on. Each file is named ALL.ene and every directory in my working directory contains it. Can someone give me a quick fix? Thanks!
:edit. Each file has 11 entries. Those were just examples.
for i in */ALL.ene
do
echo $(<$i)
done > result.txt
Assumptions:
I assume all your data files are of this format:
<something1><newline>
<something2><newline>
<something3><newline>
So for example, if the last newline is missing, the following script will miss the field corresponding to <something3>.
Usage: ./merge.bash -o <output file> <input file list or glob>
The script appends to any existing output files from previous runs. It also does not make any assumptions to how many fields of data every input file has. It blindly puts every line into a line in the output file separated by spaces.
#!/bin/bash
# set -o xtrace # uncomment to debug
declare output
[[ $1 =~ -o$ ]] && output="$2" && shift 2 || { \
echo "The first argument should always be -o <output>";
exit -1; }
declare -a files=("${#}") row
for file in "${files[#]}";
do
while read data; do
row+=("$data")
done < "$file"
echo "${row[#]}" >> "$output"
row=()
done
Example:
$ cat data1
-1597.5421
-1909.6982
-1991.8743
-2033.5744
$ cat data2
-1789.3324
-1234.5678
-9876.5433
-9999.4321
$ ./merge.bash -o test data{1,2}
$ cat test
-1597.5421 -1909.6982 -1991.8743 -2033.5744
-1789.3324 -1234.5678 -9876.5433 -9999.4321
This is what coreutils paste is good at, try:
