I have two files - file1 & file2.
file1 contains (only words) says-
ABC
YUI
GHJ
I8O
..................
file2 contains many para.
dfghjo ABC kll njjgg bla bla
GHJ njhjckhv chasjvackvh ..
ihbjhi hbhibb jh jbiibi
...................
I am using below command to get the matching lines which contains word from file1 in file2
grep -Ff file1 file2
(Gives output of lines where words of file1 found in file2)
I also need the words which doesn't match/found in file 2 and unable to find Un-matching word.
Can anyone help in getting below output
YUI
I8O
i am looking one liner command (via grep,awk,sed), as i am using pssh command and can't use while,for loop
You can print only the matched parts with -o.
$ grep -oFf file1 file2
ABC
GHJ
Use that output as a list of patterns for a search in file1. Process substitution <(cmd) simulates a file containing the output of cmd. With -v you can print lines that did not match. If file1 contains two lines such that one line is a substring of another line you may want to add -x (only match whole lines) to prevent false positives.
$ grep -vxFf <(grep -oFf file1 file2) file1
YUI
I8O
Using Perl - both matched/non-matched in same one-liner

print "$&" and delete($x{$&}) if /$w/ ;
END { print "\nnon-matched\n".join("\n", keys %x) }

Getting only the non-matched
$ perl -lne '
BEGIN {
%x = map { chomp; $_=>1 } qx(cat sinw.txt);
$w = "\\b" . join("\|",keys %x) . "\\b"
}
delete($x{$&}) if /$w/;
END { print "\nnon-matched\n".join("\n", keys %x) }
' sin_in.txt
non-matched
I8O

$
Note that even a single use of $& variable used to be very expensive for the whole program, in Perl versions prior to 5.20.
Assuming your "words" in file1 are in more than 1 line :
while read line
do
for word in $line
do
if ! grep -q $word file2
then echo $word not found
fi
done
done < file1
For Un-matching words, here's one GNU awk solution:
awk 'NR==FNR{a[$0];next} !($1 in a)' RS='[ \n]' file2 file1
YUI
I8O
Or !($0 in a), it's the same. Since I set RS='[ \n]', every space as line separator too.
And note that I read file2 first, and then file1.
If file2 could be empty, you should change NR==FNR to different file checking methods, like ARGIND==1 for GNU awk, or FILENAME=="file2", or FILENAME==ARGV[1] etc.
Same mechanism for only the matched one too:
awk 'NR==FNR{a[$0];next} $0 in a' RS='[ \n]' file2 file1

I have been trying to re-write an egrep command using awk to improve performance but haven't been successful. The egrep command performs a simple case insensitive search of the records in file1 against (partial matches in) file2. Below is the command and sample output.
file1 contains:
Abc
xyz
123
blah
hh
a,b
file2 contains:
abc de
xyz
123
456
blah
test1
abdc
abc,def,123
kite
a,b,c
Original command :
egrep -i -f file1 file2
Original (egrep) command output :
$ egrep -i -f file1 file2
abc de
xyz
123
blah
abc,def,123
a,b,c
I would like to use AWK to rewrite the command to do the same operation. I have tried the below but it is performing a full record match and not partial like grep does.
Modified command in awk :
awk 'NR==FNR{a[tolower($0)];next} tolower($0) in a' file1 file2
Modified command (awk) output:
$ awk 'NR==FNR{a[tolower($0)];next} tolower($0) in a' file1 file2
xyz
123
blah
This excludes the records which had partial matches for the string "abc". Any help to fix the awk command please? Thanks in advance.
Use index like this for a partial literal match:
awk '
NR == FNR {
needles[tolower($0)]
next
}
{
haystack = tolower($0)
for (needle in needles) {
if (index(haystack, needle)) {
print
break
}
}
}' file1 file2
I would be a bit surprised that it's significantly faster than egrep but you can try this:
$ awk 'NR==FNR {r=r ((r=="")?"":"|") tolower($0);next} tolower($0)~r' file1 file2
abc de
xyz
123
blah
abc,def,123
Explanation: first build the r1|r2|...|rn regular expression from the content of file1 and store it in awk variable r. Then print all lines of file2 that match it, thanks to the ~ match operator.
If you have GNU awk you can use its IGNORECASE variable instead of tolower:
$ awk -v IGNORECASE=1 'NR==FNR{r=r ((r=="")?"":"|") $0;next} $0~r' file1 file2
abc de
xyz
123
blah
abc,def,123
And with GNU awk it could be that forcing the type of r to regexp instead of string leads to better performance. The manual says:
Given that you can use both regexp and string constants to describe
regular expressions, which should you use? The answer is "regexp
constants," for several reasons:
...
It is more efficient to use regexp constants. 'awk' can note that
you have supplied a regexp and store it internally in a form that
makes pattern matching more efficient. When using a string
constant, 'awk' must first convert the string into this internal
form and then perform the pattern matching.
In order to do this you can try:
$ awk -v IGNORECASE=1 'NR==FNR {s=s ((s=="")?"":"|") $0;next}
FNR==1 && NR!=FNR {r=#//;sub(//,s,r);print typeof(r),r} $0~r' file1 file2
regexp Abc|xyz|123|blah|hh
abc de
xyz
123
blah
abc,def,123
(r=#// forces variable r to be of type regexp and sub(//,s,r) does not change this)
Note: just like with your egrep attempts, the lines of file1 are considered as regular expressions, not simple text strings to search for. So, if one line in file1 is .*, all lines in file2 will match, not just the lines containing substring .*.
What's the easiest/quickest way to interleave the lines of two (or more) text files? Example:
File 1:
line1.1
line1.2
line1.3
File 2:
line2.1
line2.2
line2.3
Interleaved:
line1.1
line2.1
line1.2
line2.2
line1.3
line2.3
Sure it's easy to write a little Perl script that opens them both and does the task. But I was wondering if it's possible to get away with fewer code, maybe a one-liner using Unix tools?
paste -d '\n' file1 file2
Here's a solution using awk:
awk '{print; if(getline < "file2") print}' file1
produces this output:
line 1 from file1
line 1 from file2
line 2 from file1
line 2 from file2
...etc
Using awk can be useful if you want to add some extra formatting to the output, for example if you want to label each line based on which file it comes from:
awk '{print "1: "$0; if(getline < "file2") print "2: "$0}' file1
produces this output:
1: line 1 from file1
2: line 1 from file2
1: line 2 from file1
2: line 2 from file2
...etc
Note: this code assumes that file1 is of greater than or equal length to file2.
If file1 contains more lines than file2 and you want to output blank lines for file2 after it finishes, add an else clause to the getline test:
awk '{print; if(getline < "file2") print; else print ""}' file1
or
awk '{print "1: "$0; if(getline < "file2") print "2: "$0; else print"2: "}' file1
#Sujoy's answer points in a useful direction. You can add line numbers, sort, and strip the line numbers:
(cat -n file1 ; cat -n file2 ) | sort -n | cut -f2-
Note (of interest to me) this needs a little more work to get the ordering right if instead of static files you use the output of commands that may run slower or faster than one another. In that case you need to add/sort/remove another tag in addition to the line numbers:
(cat -n <(command1...) | sed 's/^/1\t/' ; cat -n <(command2...) | sed 's/^/2\t/' ; cat -n <(command3) | sed 's/^/3\t/' ) \
| sort -n | cut -f2- | sort -n | cut -f2-
With GNU sed:
sed 'R file2' file1
Output:
line1.1
line2.1
line1.2
line2.2
line1.3
line2.3
Here's a GUI way to do it: Paste them into two columns in a spreadsheet, copy all cells out, then use regular expressions to replace tabs with newlines.
cat file1 file2 |sort -t. -k 2.1
Here its specified that the separater is "." and that we are sorting on the first character of the second field.
I have 2 files like below. I need a script to find string from file2 in file1 and delete the line which contains the string from file1 and put it in another file (output1.txt). Also it shld print the lines deleted and the string if the string doesn't exist in File1 (Ouput2.txt).
File1:
Apple
Boy: Goes to school
Cat
File2:
Boy
Dog
I need output like below.
Output1.txt:
Apple
Cat
Output2.txt:
Dog
Can anyone help please
If you have awk available on your system:
awk -v FS='[ :]' 'NR==FNR{a[$1]}NR>FNR&&!($1 in a){print $1}' File2 File1 > Output1.txt
awk -v FS='[ :]' 'NR==FNR{a[$1]}NR>FNR&&!($1 in a){print $1}' File1 File2 > Output2.txt
The script is storing in an array a the first element $1 of the first file given in argument.
If the first parameter of the second file is not part of the array, print it.
Note that the delimiter is either a space or a :
Here is what I am trying to do.
File1:
abc
bcd
cde
def
efg
fgh
ghi
File2:
ip:/vol0/scratch/&
ip:/vol0/sysbuild/
ip:/vol0/cde
ip:/vol0/mnt/cm/&
ip:/vol0/&
ip:/vol0/mnt/fgh
ip:/vol0/mnt/&
As you can see File2 has & at the end of some lines, I need to replace the & with corresponding line in File1 and ignore the lines without the & For example, if line 2 and line 3 doesn't have & the script would skip line 2 and 3 in both files and go to line 4 to replace the &
How would I achieve this with shell script.
Using paste and awk:
$ paste file2 file1 | awk 'sub(/&\s+/,"")'
ip:/vol0/scratch/abc
ip:/vol0/mnt/cm/def
ip:/vol0/efg
ip:/vol0/mnt/ghi
Wasn't 100% clear if you wanted the lines not ending in & in the output:
$ paste file2 file1 | awk '{sub(/&\s+/,"");print $1}'
ip:/vol0/scratch/abc
ip:/vol0/sysbuild/
ip:/vol0/cde
ip:/vol0/mnt/cm/def
ip:/vol0/efg
ip:/vol0/mnt/fgh
ip:/vol0/mnt/ghi
With sed:
$ paste file2 file1 | sed -rn '/&/s/&\s+//p'
ip:/vol0/scratch/abc
ip:/vol0/mnt/cm/def
ip:/vol0/efg
ip:/vol0/mnt/ghi
awk 'NR==FNR{a[NR]=$0;next} sub(/&/,a[FNR])' file1 file2
paste file1 file2 | awk 'gsub( /&/, $1 )' | cut -f2-
try this
awk '{if (NR == FNR){f[NR]= $0;}else {gsub("&",f[FNR],$0); print $0}}' file1.txt file2.txt
This might work for you (GNU sed):
sed = file1 | sed -r 'N;s/(.*)\n(.*)/\1s|\&$|\2|/' | sed -f - file2
sed = file1 generate line numbers
sed -r 'N;s/(.*)\n(.*)/\1s|\&$|\2|/' combine line number with data line and produce a sed substitution command using the line number as an address.
sed -f - file2 feed the above commands into a sed invocation using the -f switch and the standard input -

How to remove the lines which appear on file B from another file A?

Closed 6 years ago.
I have two files:
file 1
dsf
sdfsd
dsfsdf
file 2
ljljlj
lkklk
dsf
sdfsd
dsfsdf
I want to display what is in file 2 but not in file 1, so file 3 should look like
ljljlj
lkklk
grep -Fxvf file1 file2
What the flags mean:
-F, --fixed-strings
Interpret PATTERN as a list of fixed strings, separated by newlines, any of which is to be matched.
-x, --line-regexp
Select only those matches that exactly match the whole line.
-v, --invert-match
Invert the sense of matching, to select non-matching lines.
-f FILE, --file=FILE
Obtain patterns from FILE, one per line. The empty file contains zero patterns, and therefore matches nothing.
You can try
grep -f file1 file2
or
grep -v -F -x -f file1 file2
You can use the comm command to compare two sorted files
comm -13 <(sort file1) <(sort file2)
I successfully used
diff "${file1}" "${file2}" | grep "<" | sed 's/^<//g' > "${diff_file}"
Outputting the difference to a file.
if you are expecting them in a certain order, you can just use diff
diff file1 file2 | grep ">"
join -v 2 <(sort file1) <(sort file2)
A tried a slight variation on Luca's answer and it worked for me.
diff file1 file2 | grep ">" | sed 's/^> //g' > diff_file
Note that the searched pattern in sed is a > followed by a space.

> What's awk command to get 'm1 and m3' ?? as in file1 and not in file2?
m1
m3
If you want to use loops You can try like this: (diff and cmp are much more efficient. )
while read line
do
flag = 0
while read line2
do
if ( "$line" = "$line2" )
then
flag = 1
fi
done < file1
if ( flag -eq 0 )
then
echo $line > file3
fi
done < file2
Note: The program is only to provide a basic insight into what can be done if u dont want to use system calls such as diff n comm..
an awk answer:
awk 'NR == FNR {file1[$0]++; next} !($0 in file1)' file1 file2
With GNU sed:
sed 's#[^^]#[&]#g;s#\^#\\^#g;s#^#/^#;s#$#$/d#' file1 | sed -f- file2
How it works:
The first sed produces an output like this:
/^[d][s][f]$/d
/^[s][d][f][s][d]$/d
/^[d][s][f][s][d][f]$/d
Then it is used as a sed script by the second sed.
