Loop through txt file comma-separated and use as variable - bash

I have txt file separated by comma:
2012,wp_fronins.pdf
2013,test789.pdf
2014,ok09report.pdf
I'm trying to extract from the file each value and pass him to CURL command with a condition before.
For example:
if $value1=2012 do
curl "https://onlinesap.org/reports/$valu1/$value2
Any idea ?

Another way to achieve is to read the file directly and cut the rows to get the elements directly.
while read p; do
value1=`echo $p | cut -d',' -f1`
value2=`echo $p | cut -d',' -f2`
if [ $value1 = "2012" ]; then
curl "https://onlinesap.org/reports/$value1/$value2"
fi
# Add More conditional statements here for other value1
done < filename.txt

Since the name of the pdf file (value2) is unique, you may try something like this:
#!/bin/bash
FILENAME=myFile.txt
cat $FILENAME | awk -F',' '{print $2}' | while read value2; do
value1=`grep -w "$value2" $FILENAME | awk -F',' '{print $1}'` # watch the back-tick
if [ $value1 = "2012" ]; then
curl https://onlinesap.org/reports/$value1/$value2
fi
done
Please notice that the whole file is scanned a second time for each line found.
In other words, its complexity is O(n^2)

Write to file from within a for loop in Bash

Let's say I have the following csv file:
A,1
A,2
B,3
C,4
C,5
And for each unique value i in the first column of the file I want to write a script that does some processing using this value. I go about doing it this way:
CSVFILE=path/to/csv
VALUES=$(cut -d, -f1 $CSVFILE | sort | uniq)
for i in $VALUES;
do
cat >> file_${i}.sh <<-!
#!/bin/bash
#
# script that takes value I
#
echo "Processing" $i
!
done
However, this creates empty files for all values of i it is looping over, and prints the actual content of files to the console.
Is there a way to redirect the output to the files instead?
Simply
#!/bin/bash
FILE=/path/to/file
values=`cat $FILE | awk -F, '{print $1}' | sort | uniq | tr '\n' ' '`
for i in $values; do
echo "value of i is $i" >> file_$i.sh
done
Screenshot
Try using this:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
csv=/path/to/file
while IFS= read -r i; do
cat >> "file_$i.sh" <<-eof
#!/bin/bash
#
# Script that takes value $i ...
#
eof
done < <(cut -d, -f1 "$csv" | sort -u)

sh to read a file and take particular value in shell

I need to read a json file and take value like 99XXXXXXXXXXXX0 and cccs and write in csv which having column BASE_No and Schedule.
Input file: classedFFDCD_5666_4888_45_2018_02112018012106.021.json
"bfgft":"99XXXXXXXXXXXX0","fp":"XXXXXX","cur_gt":225XXXXXXXX0,"cccs"
"bfgft":"21XXXXXXXXXXXX0","fp":"XXXXXX","cur_gt":225XXXXXXXX0,"nncs"
"bfgft":"56XXXXXXXXXXXX0","fp":"XXXXXX","cur_gt":225XXXXXXXX0,"fgbs"
"bfgft":"44XXXXXXXXXXXX0","fp":"XXXXXX","cur_gt":225XXXXXXXX0,"ddss"
"bfgft":"94XXXXXXXXXXXX0","fp":"XXXXXX","cur_gt":225XXXXXXXX0,"jjjs"
Expected output:
BASE_No,Schedule
99XXXXXXXXXXXX0,cccs
21XXXXXXXXXXXX0,nncs
56XXXXXXXXXXXX0,fgbs
44XXXXXXXXXXXX0,ddss
94XXXXXXXXXXXX0,jjjs
I am using below code for reading file name and date, but unable to read file for BASE_No,Schedule.
SAVEIFS=$IFS
IFS=$(echo -en "\n\b")
for line in `ls -lrt *.json`; do
date=$(echo $line |awk -F ' ' '{print $6" "$7}');
file=$(echo $line |awk -F ' ' '{print $9}');
echo ''$file','$(date "+%Y/%m/%d %H.%M.%S")'' >> $File_Tracker`
Assuming the structure of the json doesnt change for every line, the sample code checks through line by line to retrieve the particular value and concatenates using printf. The output is then stored as new output.txt file.
#!/bin/bash
input="/home/kj4458/winhome/Downloads/sample.json"
printf "Base,Schedule \n" > output.txt
while IFS= read -r var
do
printf "`echo "$var" | cut -d':' -f 2 | cut -d',' -f 1`,`echo "$var" | cut -d':' -f 4 | cut -d',' -f 2` \n" | sed 's/"//g' >> output.txt
done < "$input"
awk -F " \" " ' {print $4","$12 }' file
99XXXXXXXXXXXX0,cccs
21XXXXXXXXXXXX0,nncs
56XXXXXXXXXXXX0,fgbs
44XXXXXXXXXXXX0,ddss
94XXXXXXXXXXXX0,jjjs
I got that result!

exiting an IF statement after initial match bash scripting

I have a script which iterates through a file and finds matches in another file. How to I get the process to stop once I've found a match.
For example:
I take the first line in name.txt, and then try to find a match for it in file.txt.
name.txt:
7,7,FRESH,98,135,
65,10,OLD,56,45,
file.txt:
7,7,Dave,S
8,10,Frank,S
31,7,Gregg
45,5,Jake,S
Script:
while read line
do
name_id=`echo $line | cut -f1,2 -d ','`
identiferOne=`echo $name_id | cut -f1 -d ','`
identiferTwo=`echo $name_id | cut -f2 -d ','`
while IFS= read line
do
CHECK=`echo $line | cut -f4 -d','`
if [ $CHECK = "S" ]
then
symbolName=`echo $line | cut -f3 -d ','`
numberOne=`echo $line | awk -F',' '{print $1}'`
numberTwo=`echo $line | cut -f2 -d ','`
if [ "$numberOne" == $identiferOne ] && [ "$numberTwo" == $identifierTwo ]
then
echo "WE HAVE A MATCH with $symbolName"
break
fi
fi
done < /tmp/file.txt
done < /tmp/name.txt
My question is - how do I stop the script from iterating through file.txt once it has found an initial match, and then set that matched record into a variable, stop the if statement, then do some other stuff within the loop using that variable. I tried using break; but that exits the loop, which is not what I want.
You can tell grep different things:
Stop searching after the first match (option -m 1).
Read the searchkeys from a file (option -f file).
Pretend that the output of a command is a file (not really grep, bash helps here) with <(cmmnd).
Combining these will give you
grep -m1 -f <(cut -d"," -f1-2 name.txt) file.txt
Close, but not what you want. The substrings given by cut -d"," -f1-2 name.txt will match everywhere in the line, and you want to match the first two fields. Matching at the start of the line is done with ^, so we use sed to make strings like ^field1,field2 :
grep -m1 -f <(sed 's/\([^,]*,[^,]*,\).*/^\1/' name.txt) file.txt

Weird bash results using cut

I am trying to run this command:
./smstocurl SLASH2.911325850268888.911325850268896
smstocurl script:
#SLASH2.911325850268888.911325850268896
model=$(echo \&model=$1 | cut -d'.' -f 1)
echo $model
imea1=$(echo \&simImea1=$1 | cut -d'.' -f 2)
echo $imea1
imea2=$(echo \&simImea2=$1 | cut -d'.' -f 3)
echo $imea2
echo $model$imea1$imea2
Result Received
&model=SLASH2911325850268888911325850268896
Result Expected
&model=SLASH2&simImea1=911325850268888&simImea2=911325850268896
What am I missing here ?
You are cutting based on the dot .. In the first case your desired string contains the first string, the one containing &model, so then it is printed.
However, in the other cases you get the 2nd and 3rd blocks (-f2, -f3), so that the imea text gets cutted off.
Instead, I would use something like this:
while IFS="." read -r model imea1 imea2
do
printf "&model=%s&simImea1=%s&simImea2=%s\n" $model $imea1 $imea2
done <<< "$1"
Note the usage of printf and variables to have more control about what we are writing. Using a lot of escapes like in your echos can be risky.
Test
while IFS="." read -r model imea1 imea2; do printf "&model=%s&simImea1=%s&simImea2=%s\n" $model $imea1 $imea2
done <<< "SLASH2.911325850268888.911325850268896"
Returns:
&model=SLASH2&simImea1=911325850268888&simImea2=911325850268896
Alternatively, this sed makes it:
sed -r 's/^([^.]*)\.([^.]*)\.([^.]*)$/\&model=\1\&simImea1=\2\&simImea2=\3/' <<< "$1"
by catching each block of words separated by dots and printing back.
You can also use this way
Run:
./program SLASH2.911325850268888.911325850268896
Script:
#!/bin/bash
String=`echo $1 | sed "s/\./\&simImea1=/"`
String=`echo $String | sed "s/\./\&simImea2=/"`
echo "&model=$String
Output:
&model=SLASH2&simImea1=911325850268888&simImea2=911325850268896
awk way
awk -F. '{print "&model="$1"&simImea1="$2"&simImea2="$3}' <<< "SLASH2.911325850268888.911325850268896"
or
awk -F. '$0="&model="$1"&simImea1="$2"&simImea2="$3' <<< "SLASH2.911325850268888.911325850268896"
output
&model=SLASH2&simImea1=911325850268888&simImea2=911325850268896

Using values of variables in on-the-spot shell commands (using ``)

I have a shell script that for-loops over input to get a number and string. If I want to test the number in the loop, can I cut the looped-over variable to get the number? For example, something like:
for line in input
do
num=`cut -f1 $line`
...
done
If not, how else can I accomplish this?
Instead of:
num=`cut -f1 $line`
You can do:
num=$(echo "$line" | cut -f1)
OR else using awk:
num=$(awk '{print $1}' <<< $line)
OR using pure BASH:
num=${line%% *}
Your command cut -f1 $line will try to cut first column from a file named as $line.
Is this what you want instead ?
while read -r number str
do
echo $number;
echo $str;
done < input
