I got a text like this:
TOKEN = decrypt_aes(
"189272123124aqephkiz3")
And I want to change it into:
TOKEN = "189272123124aqephkiz3"
How can I make this?
I can do this when its in a single line with following command:enter code here`
sed -i "s/decrypt_aes(\(.*\))/\1/g"
But I don`t no how to do when its in multi line
If your file contains only the two lines you showed, then this might help with GNU sed:
sed -i 'N; s/decrypt_aes(\n *//; s/)//' file
From man sed:
N: Append the next line of input into the pattern space.
You can use
sed -i '/.*decrypt_aes($/{N;s/^\([^=]*=\).*\(".*"\))$/\1 \2/}' file
Details:
/.*decrypt_aes($/ - matches a line that ends with decrypt_aes( substring, and if it matches, the block that follows is executed
N - append a newline and the next line to the pattern space
s/^\([^=]*=\).*\(".*"\))$/\1 \2/ - replaces
^\([^=]*=\).*\(".*"\))$ - start of string in the pattern space (^), any zero or more chars other than = and then a = are captured into Group 1 (\1), then any text (.*), then a "..." substring (captured into Group 2 (\2)) and then a ) at the end of string
\1 \2 is the replacement pattern, which is Group 1 value + space + Group 2 value.
See the online demo:
#!/bin/bash
s='TOKEN = decrypt_aes(
"189272123124aqephkiz3")'
sed '/.*decrypt_aes($/{N;s/^\([^=]*=\).*\(".*"\))$/\1 \2/}' <<< "$s"
Output:
TOKEN = "189272123124aqephkiz3"
This might work for you (GNU sed):
sed 'N;s/decrypt_aes.*\(".*"\).*/\1/;P;D' file
Append the following line and if the combined lines matches decrpty_aes followed by "...", replace the match by the string "...".
N.B. If no match is found, each line will be printed as is.

I have the following string:
|**barak**.version|2001.0132012031539|
in file text.txt.
I would like to replace it with the following:
|**barak**.version|2001.01.2012031541|
So I run:
sed -i "s/\|\*\*$module\*\*.version\|2001.0132012031539/|**$module**.version|$version/" text.txt
but the result is a duplicate instead of replacing:
|**barak**.version|2001.01.2012031541|**barak**.version|2001.0132012031539|
What am I doing wrong?
Here is the value for module and version:
$ echo $module
barak
$ echo $version
2001.01.2012031541
Assumptions:
lines of interest start and end with a pipe (|) and have one more pipe somewhere in the middle of the data
search is based solely on the value of ${module} existing between the 1st/2nd pipes in the data
we don't know what else may be between the 1st/2nd pipes
the version number is the only thing between the 2nd/3rd pipes
we don't know the version number that we'll be replacing
Sample data:
$ module='barak'
$ version='2001.01.2012031541'
$ cat text.txt
**barak**.version|2001.0132012031539| <<<=== leave this one alone
|**apple**.version|2001.0132012031539|
|**barak**.version|2001.0132012031539| <<<=== replace this one
|**chuck**.version|2001.0132012031539|
|**barak**.peanuts|2001.0132012031539| <<<=== replace this one
One sed solution with -Extended regex support enabled and making use of a capture group:
$ sed -E "s/^(\|[^|]*${module}[^|]*).*/\1|${version}|/" text.txt
Where:
\| - first occurrence (escaped pipe) tells sed we're dealing with a literal pipe; follow-on pipes will be treated as literal strings
^(\|[^|]*${module}[^|]*) - first capture group that starts at the beginning of the line, starts with a pipe, then some number of non-pipe characters, then the search pattern (${module}), then more non-pipe characters (continues up to next pipe character)
.* - matches rest of the line (which we're going to discard)
\1|${version}| - replace line with our first capture group, then a pipe, then the new replacement value (${version}), then the final pipe
The above generates:
**barak**.version|2001.0132012031539|
|**apple**.version|2001.0132012031539|
|**barak**.version|2001.01.2012031541| <<<=== replaced
|**chuck**.version|2001.0132012031539|
|**barak**.peanuts|2001.01.2012031541| <<<=== replaced
An awk alternative using GNU awk:
awk -v mod="$module" -v vers="$version" -F \| '{ OFS=FS;split($2,map,".");inmod=substr(map[1],3,length(map[1])-4);if (inmod==mod) { $3=vers } }1' file
Pass two variables mod and vers to awk using $module and $version. Set the field delimiter to |. Split the second field into array map using the split function and using . as the delimiter. Then strip the leading and ending "**" from the first index of the array to expose the module name as inmod using the substr function. Compare this to the mod variable and if there is a match, change the 3rd delimited field to the variable vers. Print the lines with short hand 1
Pipe is only special when you're using extended regular expressions: sed -E
There's no reason why you need extended here, stick with basic regex:
sed "
# for lines matching module.version
/|\*\*$module\*\*.version|/ {
# replace the version
s/|2001.0132012031539|/|$version|/
}
" text.txt
or as an unreadable one-liner
sed "/|\*\*$module\*\*.version|/ s/|2001.0132012031539|/|$version|/" text.txt
I have files that need to be removed from comments and white space until keyword . Line number varies . Is it possible to limit multiple continued sed substitutions based on Keyword ?
This removes all comments and white spaces from file :
sed -i -e 's/#.*$//' -e 's/;.*$//' -e '/^$/d' file
For example something like this :
# string1
# string2
some string
; string3
; string4
####
<Keyword_Keep_this_line_and_comments_white_space_after_this>
# More comments that need to be here
; etc.
sed -i '1,/keyword/{/^[#;]/d;/^$/d;}' file
I would suggest using awk and setting a flag when you reach your keyword:
awk '/Keyword/ { stop = 1 } stop || !/^[[:blank:]]*([;#]|$)/' file
Set stop to true when the line contains Keyword. Do the default action (print the line) when stop is true or when the line doesn't match the regex. The regex matches lines whose first non-blank character is a semicolon or hash, or blank lines. It's slightly different to your condition but I think it does what you want.
The command prints to standard output so you should redirect to a new file and then overwrite the original to achieve an "in-place edit":
awk '...' input > tmp && mv tmp input
Use grep -n keyword to get the line number that contains the keyword.
Use sed -i -e '1,N s/#..., when N is the line number that contains the keyword, to only remove comments on the lines 1 to N.
For example, I have a file containing a line as below:
"abc":"def"
I need to insert 123 between "abc":" and def" so that the line will become: "abc":"123def".
As "abc" appears only once so I think I can just search it and do the insertion.
How to do this with bash script such as sed or awk?
AMD$ sed 's/"abc":"/&123/' File
"abc":"123def"
Match "abc":", then append this match with 123 (& will contain the matched string "abc":")
If you want to take care of space before and after :, you can use:
sed 's/"abc" *: *"/&123/'
For replacing all such patterns, use g with sed.
sed 's/"abc" *: *"/&123/g' File
sed:
$ sed -E 's/(:")(.*)/\1123\2/' <<<'"abc":"def"'
"abc":"123def"
(:") gets :" and put in captured group 1
(.*) gets the remaining portion and put in captured group 2
in the replacement, \1123\2 puts 123 between the groups
awk:
$ awk -F: 'sub(".", "&123", $2)' <<<'"abc":"def"'
"abc" "123def"
In the sub() function, the second ($2) field is being operated on, pattern is used as . (which would match "), and in the replacement the matched portion (&) is followed by 123.
echo '"abc":"def"'| awk '{sub(/def/,"123def")}1'
"abc":"123def"
It took me a while to figure out how to do this, so posting in case anyone else is looking for the same.
For adding a newline after a pattern, you can also say:
sed '/pattern/{G;}' filename
Quoting GNU sed manual:
G
Append a newline to the contents of the pattern space, and then append the contents of the hold space to that of the pattern space.
EDIT:
Incidentally, this happens to be covered in sed one liners:
# insert a blank line below every line which matches "regex"
sed '/regex/G'
This sed command:
sed -i '' '/pid = run/ a\
\
' file.txt
Finds the line with: pid = run
file.txt before
; Note: the default prefix is /usr/local/var
; Default Value: none
;pid = run/php-fpm.pid
; Error log file
and adds a linebreak after that line inside file.txt
file.txt after
; Note: the default prefix is /usr/local/var
; Default Value: none
;pid = run/php-fpm.pid
; Error log file
Or if you want to add text and a linebreak:
sed -i '/pid = run/ a\
new line of text\
' file.txt
file.txt after
; Note: the default prefix is /usr/local/var
; Default Value: none
;pid = run/php-fpm.pid
new line of text
; Error log file
A simple substitution works well:
sed 's/pattern.*$/&\n/'
Example :
$ printf "Hi\nBye\n" | sed 's/H.*$/&\nJohn/'
Hi
John
Bye
To be standard compliant, replace \n by backslash newline :
$ printf "Hi\nBye\n" | sed 's/H.*$/&\
> John/'
Hi
John
Bye
sed '/pattern/a\\r' file name
It will add a return after the pattern while g will replace the pattern with a blank line.
If a new line (blank) has to be added at end of the file use this:
sed '$a\\r' file name
Another possibility, e.g. if You don't have an empty hold register, could be:
sed '/pattern/{p;s/.*//}' file
Explanation:
/pattern/{...} = apply sequence of commands, if line with pattern found,
p = print the current line,
; = separator between commands,
s/.*// = replace anything with nothing in the pattern register,
then automatically print the empty pattern register as additional line)
The easiest option -->
sed 'i\
' filename
I have a string which i need to insert at a specific position in a file :
The file contains multiple semicolons(;) i need to insert the string just before the last ";"
Is this possible with SED ?
Please do post the explanation with the command as I am new to shell scripting
before :
adad;sfs;sdfsf;fsdfs
string = jjjjj
after
adad;sfs;sdfsf jjjjj;fsdfs
Thanks in advance
This might work for you:
echo 'adad;sfs;sdfsf;fsdfs'| sed 's/\(.*\);/\1 jjjjj;/'
adad;sfs;sdfsf jjjjj;fsdfs
The \(.*\) is greedy and swallows the whole line, the ; makes the regexp backtrack to the last ;. The \(.*\) make s a back reference \1. Put all together in the RHS of the s command means insert jjjjj before the last ;.
sed 's/\([^;]*\)\(;[^;]*;$\)/\1jjjjj\2/' filename
(substitute jjjjj with what you need to insert).
Example:
$ echo 'adad;sfs;sdfsf;fsdfs;' | sed 's/\([^;]*\)\(;[^;]*;$\)/\1jjjjj\2/'
adad;sfs;sdfsfjjjjj;fsdfs;
Explanation:
sed finds the following pattern: \([^;]*\)\(;[^;]*;$\). Escaped round brackets (\(, \)) form numbered groups so we can refer to them later as \1 and \2.
[^;]* is "everything but ;, repeated any number of times.
$ means end of the line.
Then it changes it to \1jjjjj\2.
\1 and \2 are groups matched in first and second round brackets.
For now, the shorter solution using sed : =)
sed -r 's#;([^;]+);$#; jjjjj;\1#' <<< 'adad;sfs;sdfsf;fsdfs;'
-r option stands for extented Regexp
# is the delimiter, the known / separator can be substituted to any other character
we match what's finishing by anything that's not a ; with the ; final one, $ mean end of the line
the last part from my explanation is captured with ()
finally, we substitute the matching part by adding "; jjjj" ans concatenate it with the captured part
Edit: POSIX version (more portable) :
echo 'adad;sfs;sdfsf;fsdfs;' | sed 's#;\([^;]\+\);$#; jjjjj;\1#'
echo 'adad;sfs;sdfsf;fsdfs;' | sed -r 's/(.*);(.*);/\1 jjjj;\2;/'
You don't need the negation of ; because sed is by default greedy, and will pick as much characters as it can.
sed -e 's/\(;[^;]*\)$/ jjjj\1/'
Inserts jjjj before the part where a semicolon is followed by any number of non-semicolons ([^;]*) at the end of the line $. \1 is called a backreference and contains the characters matched between \( and \).
UPDATE: Since the sample input has no longer a ";" at the end.
Something like this may work for you:
echo "adad;sfs;sdfsf;fsdfs"| awk 'BEGIN{FS=OFS=";"} {$(NF-1)=$(NF-1) " jjjjj"; print}'
OUTPUT:
adad;sfs;sdfsf jjjjj;fsdfs
Explanation: awk starts with setting FS (field separator) and OFS (output field separator) as semi colon ;. NF in awk stands for number of fields. $(NF-1) thus means last-1 field. In this awk command {$(NF-1)=$(NF-1) " jjjjj" I am just appending jjjjj to last-1 field.
