I have a string,
var=refs/heads/testing/branch
I want to get rid of refs/heads/ in the string using shell script, such that I have only:
var=testing/branch
Commands I tried (one per line):
echo $(var) | awk -F\\ {'print $2'}
echo $var | sed -e s,refs/heads/,,
echo "refs/heads/testing/branch" | grep -oP '(?<=refs/heads/\)\w+'
echo "refs/heads/testing/branch" | LC_ALL=C sed -e 's/.*\\//'
echo "refs/heads/testing/branch" | cut -d'\' -f2
echo refs/heads/testing/branch | sed -e s,refs/heads/,,
there are lots of options out there ,try easy ones:
echo $var | cut -d "/" -f 3,4
echo $var | awk -F"/" '{print $3"/"$4}'
Shell parameter expansion: remove the prefix "refs/heads/" from the variable contents
$ var=refs/heads/testing/branch
$ echo "${var#refs/heads/}"
testing/branch

MA=$(bt-device -l | cut -d " " -f 3)

Expected Result
98:9E:63:18:00:88
Actual result
(98:9E:63:18:00:88
A few alternatives:
$ echo 'Denny’s Tunez (98:9E:63:18:00:88)' | sed -En 's/^[^(]*\(([^)]*)\).*/\1/p'
98:9E:63:18:00:88
$ echo 'Denny’s Tunez (98:9E:63:18:00:88)' | cut -d'(' -f2 | cut -d')' -f1
98:9E:63:18:00:88
$ echo 'Denny’s Tunez (98:9E:63:18:00:88)' | awk -F'[)(]' '{print $2}'
98:9E:63:18:00:88
$ echo 'Denny’s Tunez (98:9E:63:18:00:88)' | grep -Eow '(..)(:..){5}'
98:9E:63:18:00:88
$ x='Denny’s Tunez (98:9E:63:18:00:88)'
$ y="${x//*\(/}"
$ y="${y//\)*}"
$ echo $y
98:9E:63:18:00:88
With GNU bash and its Parameter Expansion:
s="(98:9E:63:18:00:88)"
s="${s/#?/}" # remove first character
s="${s/%?/}" # remove last character
echo "$s"
Output:
98:9E:63:18:00:88
Using sed it can be done in a single step:
s='Denny’s Tunez (98:9E:63:18:00:88)'
echo "$s" | sed -E 's/.* \(|)//g'
98:9E:63:18:00:88
So for your example you can use:
mac=$(bt-device -l | sed -E 's/.* \(|)//g')
You can use parameter expansion:
offset and length
echo ${MA:1: -1}
prefix and suffix removal
tmp=${MA#(}
echo ${tmp%)}
parameter matching
tmp=${MA/#\(}
echo ${tmp/%\)}
Another approach is to:
whitelist what you do want
echo "$MA" | tr -dC '[0-9A-F:]'
I have a variable having following format
bundle="chn-pro-X.Y-Z.el8.x86_64"
X,Y,Z are numbers having any number of digits
Ex:
1.0-2 # X=1 Y=0 Z=2
12.45-9874 # X=12 Y=45 Z=9874
How can I grab X.Y and store it in another variable?
EDIT:
I wasn't right with my wording, but
I want to store X.Y into new variable not individual X & Y's
I'm looking to finally have a variable version which has X.Y grabbed from bundle:
version="X.Y"
I would use awk:
bundle="chn-pro-12.45-9874.el8.x86_64"
echo "$bundle" | awk -F "[.-]" '{print $3,$4,$5}'
12 45 9874
Now if you want to assign to x, y, z use read and process substitution:
read -r x y z < <(echo "$bundle" | awk -F "[.-]" '{print $3,$4,$5}')
echo "x=$x, y=$y, z=$z"
x=12, y=45, z=9874
If you just want the value of X.Y as a single value this is still great use for awk:
bundle="chn-pro-12.45-9874.el8.x86_64"
echo "$bundle" | awk -F "[-]" '{print $3}'
12.45
And if you then want to put that into a variable:
x_y=$(echo "$bundle" | awk -F "[-]" '{print $3}')
echo "x_y=$x_y"
x_y=12.45
Or you can use cut in this case to get the third field:
echo "$bundle" | cut -d- -f3
12.45
Like that:
$ bundle="chn-pro-1.0-2.el8.x86_64"
$ X="$(echo "$bundle" | cut -d . -f1 | cut -d- -f3)"
$ Y="$(echo "$bundle" | cut -d . -f2 | cut -d- -f1)"
$ Z="$(echo "$bundle" | cut -d . -f2 | cut -d- -f2)"
$ echo "$X"
1
$ echo "$Y"
0
$ echo "$Z"
2
You can merge X and Y into a single variable:
$ XY="$X.$Y"
$ echo $XY
1.0
Use regex to separate numbers:
numbers=$(echo $bundle | grep -Eo '([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\-[0-9]+)' | sed 's/\./\t/g;s/\-/\t/g')
Then assign them to variables with using awk or tr or cut, whatever you want:
X=$(echo $numbers| awk '{print $1}')
Y=$(echo $numbers| awk '{print $2}')
Z=$(echo $numbers| awk '{print $3}')
EDIT
For storing x.y into single version variable you can simply ignore pervios commands:
version=$(echo $bundle | grep -Eo '([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\-[0-9]+)' | grep -Eo '([0-9]+\.[0-9]+)')
Given this input:
$ bundle="chn-pro-12.45-9874.el8.x86_64"
using GNU or BSD sed for -E:
$ foo=$(echo "$bundle" | sed -E 's/.*-([0-9]+\.[0-9]+)-[0-9].*/\1/')
$ echo "$foo"
12.45
or with any sed:
$ foo=$(echo "$bundle" | sed 's/.*-\([0-9][0-9]*\.[0-9][0-9]*\)-[0-9].*/\1/')
$ echo "$foo"
12.45
Assumptions:
the input string will always contain (at least) 3 hyphens
the desired version string will always reside between the 2nd and 3rd hyphens of the input string
we need to maintain the input string (ie, don't clobber/overwrite the variable containing the input string)
We can eliminate the subprocess calls (necessary for echo/sed/grep/awk/sed) by using some parameter expansions:
$ bundle="chn-pro-X.Y-Z.el8.x86_64"
$ temp="${bundle#*-}" # strip off 1st hyphen delimited string
$ echo "${temp}"
pro-X.Y-Z.el8.x86_64
$ temp="${temp#*-}" # strip off 2nd hyphen delimited string
$ echo "${temp}"
X.Y-Z.el8.x86_64
$ version="${temp%%-*}" # save 3rd hyphen delimited string (aka our version)
$ echo "${version}"
X.Y
NOTE: We can eliminate the temp variable by replacing all occurrences of temp with version with the understanding version does not contain what we want until after the 3rd parameter expansion has occurred, eg:
$ bundle="chn-pro-X.Y-Z.el8.x86_64"
$ version="${bundle#*-}"
$ version="${version#*-}"
$ version="${version%%-*}"
$ echo "${version}"
X.Y
I have tried the below
history -d $(history | grep "echo.*" |awk '{print $1}')
But it is not deleting all the commands from the history with echo
I want to delete any commands start with echo
like
echo "mamam"
echoaaa
echo "hello"
echooooo
You can use this to remove echo entries :
for d in $(history | grep -Po '^\s*\K(\d+)(?= +echo)' | sort -nr); do history -d $d; done
I would do a
history -d $(history | grep -E "^ *[0-9]+ *echo" | awk '{print $1})
The history command produces one column of event number, followed by the command. We need to match an echo, which is following such a event number. The awk then prints just the event number.
An alternative without reverting to awk would be:
history -d $(history | grep -E "^ *[0-9]+ *echo" | grep -Eow '[0-9]+)
history -w
sed -i '/^echo.*/d' ~/.bash_history
history -c
history -r
I have this shell script variable, var. It keeps 3 entries separated by new line. From this variable var, I want to extract 2, and 0.078688. Just these two numbers.
var="USER_ID=2
# 0.078688
Suhas"
These are the code I tried:
echo "$var" | grep -o -P '(?<=\=).*(?=\n)' # For extracting 2
echo "$var" | awk -v FS="(# |\n)" '{print $2}' # For extracting 0.078688
None of the above working. What is the problem here? How to fix this ?
Just use tr alone for retaining the numerical digits, the dot (.) and the white-space and remove everything else.
tr -cd '0-9. ' <<<"$var"
2 0.078688
From the man page, of tr for usage of -c, -d flags,
tr [OPTION]... SET1 [SET2]
-c, -C, --complement
use the complement of SET1
-d, --delete
delete characters in SET1, do not translate
To store it in variables,
IFS=' ' read -r var1 var2 < <(tr -cd '0-9. ' <<<"$var")
printf "%s\n" "$var1"
2
printf "%s\n" "$var2"
2
0.078688
Or in an array as
IFS=' ' read -ra numArray < <(tr -cd '0-9. ' <<<"$var")
printf "%s\n" "${numArray[#]}"
2
0.078688
Note:- The -cd flags in tr are POSIX compliant and will work on any systems that has tr installed.
echo "$var" |grep -oP 'USER_ID=\K.*'
2
echo "$var" |grep -oP '# \K.*'
0.078688
Your solution is near to perfect, you need to chance \n to $ which represent end of line.
echo "$var" |awk -F'# ' '/#/{print $2}'
0.078688
echo "$var" |awk -F'=' '/USER_ID/{print $2}'
2
You can do it with pure bash using a regex:
#!/bin/bash
var="USER_ID=2
# 0.078688
Suhas"
[[ ${var} =~ =([0-9]+).*#[[:space:]]([0-9\.]+) ]] && result1="${BASH_REMATCH[1]}" && result2="${BASH_REMATCH[2]}"
echo "${result1}"
echo "${result2}"
With awk:
First value:
echo "$var" | grep 'USER_ID' | awk -F "=" '{print $2}'
Second value:
echo "$var" | grep '#' | awk '{print $2}'
Assuming this is the format of data as your sample
# For extracting 2
echo "$var" | sed -e '/.*=/!d' -e 's///'
echo "$var" | awk -F '=' 'NR==1{ print $2}'
# For extracting 0.078688
echo "$var" | sed -e '/.*#[[:blank:]]*/!d' -e 's///'
echo "$var" | awk -F '#' 'NR==2{ print $2}'
I want to parse the following string in shell script.
VERSION=2.6.32.54-0.11.def
Here I want to get two value.
first = 263254
second = 11
I am using following to get the first value:
first=`expr substr $VERSION 1 9| sed "s/\.//g" |sed "s/\-//g"`
to get the second:
second=`expr substr $VERSION 10 6| sed "s/\.//g" |sed "s/\-//g"`
Using above code the output is:
first=263254
second=11
The result wont be consistent if version is changed to:
VERSION=2.6.32.54-0.1.def
Here second value will become 1d, but I want it give output of 1 only.
How can I directly parse the number after '-' and before '.d'?
$ first=$(echo $VERSION | cut -d- -f1 | sed 's/\.//g')
$ second=$(echo $VERSION | cut -d- -f2 | cut -d. -f2)
$ first=$(echo $VERSION | cut -d- -f1 | tr -d '.')
$ second=$(echo $VERSION | cut -d- -f2 | cut -d. -f2)
$ echo $first
263254
$ echo $second
11
you don't need multiple processes (sed|sed|sed...). single process with awk should work.
if you have VERSION=xxxx as string:
to get the first:
awk -F'[-=]' '{gsub(/\./,"",$2)}$0=$2'
to get the second:
awk -F'-|\\.def' '{split($2,a,".")}$0=a[2]'
test:
first:
kent$ echo "VERSION=2.6.32.54-0.1.def"|awk -F'[-=]' '{gsub(/\./,"",$2)}$0=$2'
263254
second
kent$ echo "VERSION=2.6.32.54-0.1.def"|awk -F'-|\\.def' '{split($2,a,".")}$0=a[2]'
1
kent$ echo "VERSION=2.6.32.54-0.1234.def"|awk -F'-|\\.def' '{split($2,a,".")}$0=a[2]'
1234
if you have VERSION=xxx as variable $VERSION:
first:
awk -F'-' '{gsub(/\./,"",$1)}$0=$1'
second:
awk -F'-|\\.def' '{split($2,a,".")}$0=a[2]'
test:
VERSION=2.6.32.54-0.1234.def
kent$ echo $VERSION|awk -F'-' '{gsub(/\./,"",$1)}$0=$1'
263254
7pLaptop 11:18:22 /tmp/test
kent$ echo $VERSION|awk -F'-|\\.def' '{split($2,a,".")}$0=a[2]'
1234
You should use regular expressions instead of the number of characters.
first=`sed 's/.//g' | sed 's/\(.*\)-.*/\1/'`
second=`sed 's/.//g' | sed 's/.*-\([0-9]*\).*/\1/'`
\(...\) are used to create a capturing group, and \1 output this group.
first=$(echo ${VERSION} | sed -e 's/^\([^-]*\)-0\.\([0-9]*\)\.def/\1/' -e 's/\.//g')
second=$(echo ${VERSION} | sed -e 's/^\([^-]*\)-0\.\([0-9]*\)\.def/\2/' -e 's/\.//g')
$ first=$(echo $VERSION | awk -F"\." '{gsub(/-.*/,"",$4);print $1$2$3$4}')
$ second=$(echo $VERSION | awk -F"\." '{print $5}' )
