How get value from text file in linux - linux

I have some file xxx.conf in text format. I have some text "disablelog = 1" in this file.
When I use
grep -r "disablelog" oscam.conf
output is
disablelog = 1
But i need only value 1.
Do you have some idea please?

one way is to use awk to print just the value
grep -r "disablelog" oscam.conf | awk '{print $3}'
you could also use sed to replace diablelog = with empty
grep -r 'disablelog' oscam.conf | sed -e 's/disablelog = //'
If you also want to get the lines with or without space before and after = use
grep -r 'disablelog' oscam.conf | sed 's/disablelog\s*=\s*//'
above command will also match
disablelog=1

Assuming you need it as a var in a script:
#!/bin/bash
DISABLELOG=$(awk -F= '/^.*disablelog/{gsub(/ /,"",$2);print $2}' /path/to/oscam.conf)
echo $DISABLELOG
When calling this script, the output should be 1.
Edit: No matter wether there is whitespace or not between the equals sign and the value, the above will handle that. The regex should be anchored in either way to improve performance.

Try:
grep -r "disablelog" oscam.conf | awk -F= '{print $2}'

Just for fun a solution without awk
grep -r disablelog | cut -d= -f2 | xargs
xargs is used here to trim the whitespace

Bash issue with floating point numbers in specific format

1.415949602
91.09582241
91.12042924
91.40270349

sed 's/^91\.//' file (working)
Any way possible I can do these 3 steps?
1st I try this
cat input | tr -d 91. > 1.txt (didnt work)
cat input | tr -d "91." > 1.txt (didnt work)
cat input | tr -d '91.' > 1.txt (didnt work)
then
grep -x '.\{10\}' (working)
then
grep "^[6-9]" (working)
Final 1 line solution
cat input.txt | sed 's/\91.//g' | grep -x '.\{10\}' | grep "^[6-9]" > output.txt
Your "final" solution:
cat input.txt |
sed 's/\91.//g' |
grep -x '.\{10\}' |
grep "^[6-9]" > output.txt
should avoid the useless cat, and also move the backslash in the sed script to the correct place (and I added a ^ anchor and removed the g flag since you don't expect more than one match on a line anyway);
sed 's/^91\.//' input.txt |
grep -x '.\{10\}' |
grep "^[6-9]" > output.txt
You might also be able to get rid of at least one useless grep but at this point, I would switch to Awk:
awk '{ sub(/^91\./, "") } /^[6-9].{9}$/' input.txt >output.txt
The sub() does what your sed replacement did; the final condition says to print lines which match the regex.
The same can conveniently, but less readably, be written in sed:
sed -n 's/^91\.([6-9][0-9]\{9\}\)$/\1/p' input.txt >output.txt
assuming your sed dialect supports BRE regex with repetitions like [0-9]\{9\}.

how to print tail of path filename using awk

I've searched it with no success.
I have a file with pathes.
I want to print the tail of a all pathes.
for example (for every line in file):
/homes/work/abc.txt
--> abc.txt
Does anyone know how to do it?
Thanks
awk -F "/" '{print $NF}' input.txt
will give output of:
abc1.txt
abc2.txt
abc3.txt
for:
$>cat input.txt
text path/to/file/abc1.txt
path/to/file/abc2.txt
path/to/file/abc3.txt
How about this awk
echo "/homes/work/abc.txt" | awk '{sub(/.*\//,x)}1'
abc.txt
Since .* is greedy, it will continue until last /
So here we remove all until last / with x, and since x is empty, gives nothing.
Thors version
echo "/homes/work/abc.txt" | awk -F/ '$0=$NF'
abc.txt
NB this will fail for /homes/work/0 or 0,0 etc so better use:
echo "/homes/work/abc.txt" | awk -F/ '{$0=$NF}1'
awk solutions are already provided by #Jotne and #bashophil
Here are some other variations (just for fun)
Using sed
sed 's:.*/::' file
Using grep
grep -oP '(.*/)?\K.*' file
Using cut - added by #Thor
rev file | cut -d/ -f1 | rev
Using basename - suggested by #fedorqui and #EdMorton
while IFS= read -r line; do
basename "$line"
done < file

linux bash, print line contaning string in a column

let's say my file /etc/passwd contains
ntp:x:38:40::/etc/ntp:/sbin/nologin
avahi:x:70:70:Avahi mDNS/DNS-SD Stack:/var/run/avahi-daemon:/sbin/nologin
haldaemon:x:38:68:HAL daemon:/:/sbin/nologin
pulse:x:497:495:PulseAudio System Daemon:/var/run/pulse:/sbin/nologin
gdm:x:42:38::/var/lib/gdm:/sbin/nologin
sshd:x:388:74:Privilege-separated SSH:/var/empty/sshd:/sbin/nologin
tcpdump:x:38:72::/:/sbin/nologin
what i'm trying to do is print the line containing a "38" in the third column, something which will print this:
ntp:x:38:40::/etc/ntp:/sbin/nologin haldaemon:x:38:68:HAL
daemon:/:/sbin/nologin gdm:x:42:38::/var/lib/gdm:/sbin/nologin
tcpdump:x:38:72::/:/sbin/nologin
I tried something like
cat "/etc/passwd" | cut -d ":" -f3 | grep "38"
but it only show the "38" not the entire line
Thanks
you may test this:
awk -F: '$3~/38/' /etc/passwd
note that 3rd column with 338 or 838 will be printed as well.
You could use grep
grep ^.*:.*:38: /etc/passwd
Improved version after tripleee's comment:
egrep ^[^:]*:[^:]*:38: /etc/passwd
You can use wk:
awk -F: '$3==38{print}' file
In general, I would suggest you avoid parsing /etc/passwd directly. Instead you can use getent passwdto read the passwd database.
You can do this:
cat /etc/passwd | egrep "^[[:alnum:]]*:[[:alnum:]]*:38:.*"
Using the alphanumeric character class.
In pure bash (awk is the way to go though!):
$ while read line; do array=(${line//:/ }); [ ${array[2]} -eq 38 ] && echo $line; done < input
ntp:x:38:40::/etc/ntp:/sbin/nologin
haldaemon:x:38:68:HAL daemon:/:/sbin/nologin
only sed was remaining :)
sed -n '/^[^:]*:[^:]:*38:/p' /etc/passwd

Bash sort by regexp

I have something about 100 files with the following syntax
ahfsdjfhdfhj_EPI_34_fdsafasdf
asdfasdf_EPI_2_fdsf
hfdjh_EPI_8_dhfffffffffff
ffffffffffasdfsdf_EPI_1_fyyy44
...
There is always EPI_NUMBER. How can I sort it by this number?
From your example it appears that delimiter is _ and text EPI_nnn comes at the same position after delimiter _. If that is always the case then you can use following command to sort the file:
sort -n -t "_" -k 3 file.txt
UPDATE:
If position of EPI_ text is not fixed then use following shell command:
sed 's/^\(.*EPI_\)\(.*\)$/\2##\1/' file.txt | sort -n -t "_" -k1 | sed 's/^\(.*\)##\(.*\)$/\2\1/'
If Perl is okay you can:
print sort foo <>;
sub foo {
($x = $a) =~s/.*EPI_(\d+).*/$1/;
($y = $b) =~s/.*EPI_(\d+).*/$1/;
return $x <=> $y;
}
and use it as:
perl prg.pl inputfile
See it
sed -e 's/EPI_/EPI /' file1 file2 ...|sort -n -k 2 -t ' '
Pipe that to sed -e 's/ /_/' to get back the original form.
This might work for you:
ls | sed 's/.*EPI_\([0-9]*\)/\1 &/' | sort -n | sed 's/\S* //'

Get N line from unzip -l

I have a jar file, i need to execute the files in it in Linux.
So I need to get the result of the unzip -l command line by line.
I have managed to extract the files names with this command :
unzip -l package.jar | awk '{print $NF}' | grep com/tests/[A-Za-Z] | cut -d "/" -f3 ;
But i can't figure out how to obtain the file names one after another to execute them.
How can i do it please ?
Thanks a lot.
If all you need the first row in a column, add a pipe and get the first line using head -1
So your one liner will look like :
unzip -l package.jar | awk '{print $NF}' | grep com/tests/[A-Za-Z] | cut -d "/" -f3 |head -1;
That will give you first line
now, club head and tail to get second line.
unzip -l package.jar | awk '{print $NF}' | grep com/tests/[A-Za-Z] | cut -d "/" -f3 |head -2 | tail -1;
to get second line.
But from scripting piont of view this is not a good approach. What you need is a loop as below:
for class in `unzip -l el-api.jar | awk '{print $NF}' | grep javax/el/[A-Za-Z] | cut -d "/" -f3`; do echo $class; done;
you can replace echo $class with whatever command you wish - and use $class to get the current class name.
HTH
Here is my attempt, which also take into account Daddou's request to remove the .class extension:
unzip -l package.jar | \
awk -F'/' '/com\/tests\/[A-Za-z]/ {sub(/\.class/, "", $NF); print $NF}' | \
while read baseName
do
echo " $baseName"
done
Notes:
The awk command also handles the tasks of grep and cut
The awk command also handles the removal of the .class extension
The result of the awk command is piped into the while read... command
baseName represents the name of the class file, with the .class extension removed
Now, you can do something with that $baseName
