How to order the rsync copy of files? - bash

Is it possible to order file copy order for the rsync of a batch of N files?
For example,
if I have 5 files within a batch, I want to rsync them ordered by filename. Given the following files:
A1
C5
A2
B1
B4
Then the rsync order would be:
A1 (arrives first on remote_server)
A2
B1
B4
C5 (arrives last on remote server)
Is this possible?

rsync A1 A2 B1 B4 C5 remote:/path/

awk or sed command for columns and rows selection from multiple files

Looking for a command for the following task:
I have three files, each with two columns, as seen below.
I would like to create file4 with four columns.
The output should resemble a merge-sorted version of file1, file2 and file3 such that the first column is sorted, the second column is the second column of file1 the third column is the second column of file2 and the fourth column is the second column of file3.
The entries in column 2 to 3 should not be sorted but should match the key-value in the first column of the original files.
I tried intersection in Linux, but not giving the desired outputs.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!!
$ cat -- file1

Awk + Bash version:
( echo "col1, col2, col3, col4" &&
awk 'ARGIND==1 { a[$1]=$2; allkeys[$1]=1 } ARGIND==2 { b[$1]=$2; allkeys[$1]=1 } ARGIND==3 { c[$1]=$2; allkeys[$1]=1 }
END{
for (k in allkeys) {
print k", "a[k]", "b[k]", "c[k]
}
}' file1 file2 file3 | sort -V -k1,1 ) | column -t -s ','
Pure Bash version:
declare -A a
while read key value; do a[$key]="${a[$key]:-}${a[$key]:+, }$value"; done < file1
while read key value; do a[$key]="${a[$key]:-, }${a[$key]:+, }$value"; done < file2
while read key value; do a[$key]="${a[$key]:-, , }${a[$key]:+, }$value"; done < file3
(echo "col1, col2, col3, col4" &&
for i in ${!a[#]}; do
echo $i, ${a[$i]}
done | sort -V -k1,1) | column -t -s ','
Explanation for "${a[$key]:-, , }${a[$key]:+, }$value" please check Shell-Parameter-Expansion
Using GNU Awk:
gawk '{ a[$1] = substr($1, 1); b[$1, ARGIND] = $2 }
END {
PROCINFO["sorted_in"] = "#val_num_asc"
for (i in a) {
t = i
for (j = 1; j <= ARGIND; ++j)
t = t OFS b[i, j]
print t
}
}' file{1..3} | column -t
There is a simple tool called join that allows you to perform this operation:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
cut -d ' ' -f1 file{1,2,3} | sort -k1,1 -u > ftmp
for f in file1 file2 file3; do
mv -- ftmp file4
join -a1 -e "---" -o auto file4 <(sort -k1,1 "$f") > ftmp
done
sort -k1,1V ftmp > file4
cat file4
This outputs
A1 B5 --- ---
A2 B10 --- ---
A3 B15 C10 D1
A4 --- C8 ---
A6 B19 C5 D10
A10 B2 C4 D5
A12 --- C14 ---
A15 B6 C18 ---
A20 --- --- D3
A21 --- --- D11
A22 --- --- D9
I used --- to indicate an empty field. If you want to pretty print this, you have to re-parse it with awk or anything else.
This might work for you (GNU sed and sort):
s=''; for f in file{1,2,3}; do s="$s\t"; sed -E "s/\s+/$s/" $f; done |
sort -V |
sed -Ee '1i\col1\tcol2\tcol3\tcol4' -e ':a;N;s/^((\S+\t).*\S).*\n\2\t+/\1\t/;ta;P;D'
Replace spaces by tabs and insert the number of tabs between the key and value depending on which file is being processed.
Sort the output by key column order.
Coalesce each line with its key and print the result.

uniq -c in one column

Imagine we have a txt file like the next one:
Input:
a1 D1
b1 D1
c1 D1
a1 D2
a1 D3
c1 D3
I want to count the time each element in the first column appears but also keep the information provided by the second column (someway). Potential possible output formats are represented, but any coherent alternative is also accepted:
Possible output 1:
3 a1 D1,D2,D3
1 b1 D1
2 c1 D1,D3
Possible output 2:
3 a1 D1
1 b1 D1
2 c1 D1
3 a1 D2
3 a1 D3
1 c1 D3
How can I do this? I guess a combination sort -k 1 input | uniq -c <keep col2> or perhaps using awk but I was not able to write anything that works. However, all answers are considered.
I would harness GNU AWK for this task following way, let file.txt content be
a1 D1
b1 D1
c1 D1
a1 D2
a1 D3
c1 D3
then
awk 'FNR==NR{arr[$1]+=1;next}{print arr[$1],$0}' file.txt file.txt
gives output
3 a1 D1
1 b1 D1
2 c1 D1
3 a1 D2
3 a1 D3
2 c1 D3
Explanation: 2-pass solution (observe that file.txt is repeated), first pass does count number of occurences of first column value storing that data into array arr, second pass is for printing computed number from array, followed by whole line.
(tested in GNU Awk 5.0.1)
Using any awk:
$ awk '
{
vals[$1] = ($1 in vals ? vals[$1] "," : "") $2
cnts[$1]++
}
END {
for (key in vals) {
print cnts[key], key, vals[key]
}
}
' file
3 a1 D1,D2,D3
1 b1 D1
2 c1 D1,D3

Using bash to get Two variables in for-loop form two different lists

I'm working with bash and I have two lists:
AZU SJI IOP
A1 B1 C1
Using the bash code below:
for f1 in AZU SJI IOP
do
for f2 in A1 B1 C1
do
echo $f1 + $f2
done
done
I get this result:
$ bash dir.sh
AZU + A1
AZU + B1
AZU + C1
SJI + A1
SJI + B1
SJI + C1
IOP + A1
IOP + B1
IOP + C1
I would like to get the result in this way
AZU A1
SJI B1
IOP C1
Define two arrays such that they have the same indices, then iterate over the indices of one array:
list1=(AZU SJI IOP)
list2=(A1 B1 C1)
for i in "${!list1[#]}"; do
echo "${list1[i]} ${list2[i]}"
done
You could of course use paste, but since your lists are not in files, you might be interested in a solution without external commands:
set -- A1 B1 C1
for f1 in AZU SJI IOP
do echo $f1 $1
shift
done

Only display the largest number in head

I use sort -r | head and get the out put like this:
8 a1
8 a2
5 a3
5 a4
4 a5
4 a6
4 a7
4 a8
4 a9
4 a0
What can I do to make the output like this:
8 a1
8 a2
only the largest k1 number show up????
There are several ways to do it, but here is one using awk. Since it is already sorted, you want to check to just print lines that match the first value by piping the headed list into something like
awk 'BEGIN{maxval=0}; (maxval==0) {maxval=$1}; ($1==maxval) {print $0}'

How to replace pairs of strings in two files to identical IDs?

[Update2] As it often happens, the scope of the task expanded quite a bit as a understood it better. The obsolete parts are crossed out, and you find the updated explanation below. [/Update2]
I have a pair of rather large log files with very similar content, except that some strings are different between the two. A couple of examples:
UnifiedClassLoader3#19518cc | UnifiedClassLoader3#d0357a
JBossRMIClassLoader#13c2d7f | JBossRMIClassLoader#191777e
That is, wherever the first file contains UnifiedClassLoader3#19518cc, the second contains UnifiedClassLoader3#d0357a, and so on. [Update] There are about 40 distinct pairs of such identifiers.[/Update]
UnifiedClassLoader3#19518cc | UnifiedClassLoader3#d0357a
JBossRMIClassLoader#13c2d7f | JBossRMIClassLoader#191777e
Logi18n#177060f | Logi18n#12ef4c6
LogFactory$1#15e3dc4 | LogFactory$1#2942da
That is, wherever the first file contains UnifiedClassLoader3#19518cc, the second contains UnifiedClassLoader3#d0357a, and so on. Note that all these strings are inside long lines of text, and they appear in many rows, intermixed with each other. There are about 4000 distinct pairs of such identifiers, and the size of each file is about 34 MB. So performance became an issue as well.
I want to replace these with identical IDs so that I can spot the really important differences between the two files. I.e. I want to replace all occurrences of both UnifiedClassLoader3#19518cc in file1 and UnifiedClassLoader3#d0357a in file2 with UnifiedClassLoader3#1; all occurrences of both Logi18n#177060f in file1 and Logi18n#12ef4c6 in file2 with Logi18n#2 etc. The counters 1 and 2 are arbitrary choices - the only requirement is that there is a one to one mapping between the old and new strings (i.e. the same string is always replaced by the same value and no different strings are replaced by the same value).
Using the Cygwin shell, so far I managed to list all different identifiers occurring in one of the files with
grep -o -e 'ClassLoader[0-9]*#[0-9a-f][0-9a-f]*' file1.log | sort | uniq
grep -o -e '[A-Z][A-Za-z0-9]*\(\$[0-9][0-9]*\)*#[0-9a-f][0-9a-f]*' file1.log
| sort | uniq
However, now the original order is lost, so I don't know which is the pair of which ID in the other file. With grep -n I can get the line number, so the sort would preserve the order of appearance, but then I can't weed out the duplicate occurrences. Unfortunately grep can not print only the first match of a pattern.
I figured I could save the list of identifiers produced by the above command into a file, then iterate over the patterns in the file with grep -n | head -n 1, concatenate the results and sort them again. The result would be something like
2 ClassLoader3#19518cc
137 ClassLoader#13c2d7f
563 ClassLoader3#1267649
...
Then I could (using sed itself) massage this into a sed command like
sed -e 's/ClassLoader3#19518cc/ClassLoader3#2/g'
-e 's/ClassLoader#13c2d7f/ClassLoader#137/g'
-e 's/ClassLoader3#1267649/ClassLoader3#563/g'
file1.log > file1_processed.log
and similarly for file2.
However, before I start, I would like to verify that my plan is the simplest possible working solution to this.
Is there any flaw in this approach? Is there a simpler way?
I think this does the trick, or at least comes close
#!/bin/sh
for PREFIX in file1 file2
do
cp ${PREFIX}.log /tmp/filter.$$.txt
FILE_MAP=`egrep -o -e 'ClassLoader[0-9a-f]*#[0-9a-f]+' ${PREFIX}.log | uniq | egrep -n .`
for MAP in `echo $FILE_MAP`
do
NUMBER=`echo $MAP | cut -d : -f 1`
WORD=`echo $MAP | cut -d : -f 2`
sed -e s/$WORD/ClassLoader#$NUMBER/g /tmp/filter.$$.txt > ${PREFIX}_processed.log
cp ${PREFIX}_processed.log /tmp/filter.$$.txt
done
rm /tmp/filter.$$.txt
done
Let me know if you have questions on how it works and why.
Here's my test data and the output
file1.log:
A1
UnifiedClassLoader3#a45bc1
