  • prepend to a file one liner shell?

    - by elmarco
    This is probably a complex solution. I am looking for a simple operator like "", but for prepending. I am afraid it does not exist. I'll have to do something like mv $F tmp cat header tmp $F Anything smarter? (I am not fond of tmp files)

  • Running shell scripts with sudo through my Rails app

    - by nfm
    In my Rails app, I have some functionality that interfaces with the server's OS. I've written a bash script, put it in my lib/ subdirectory, and can run it from my controller. However, some functionality of the script requires superuser privileges. What is the most sane way to run this script securely? It is being passed arguments from a web form, but should only be able to be called by authenticated (and trusted) users.

  • Sorting shell items like windows explorer

    - by Roy M Klever
    Hi, I am making a bread crumb bar in Delphi and having some problems regarding sorting the dropdown of the bread crumbs. Strangely enough, even Vista is not consequent when showing these items. I have tried many ways to figure out what is system folders, what is zip files and what is normal folders. It seems like an easy task but so far I have not found any good way of doing it. One way is to use TypeDisplayName from TSHFileinfo but these are localized names so I can not be sure they will be in correct order in every language. Here is the code I use to fill the menu: bool:= IsDesktop(SelectedPIDL); if bool then OleCheck(SHGetDesktopFolder(CurFolder)) else OleCheck(DesktopShellFolder.BindToObject(SelectedPIDL, nil, IID_IShellFolder, Pointer(CurFolder))); if CurFolder.EnumObjects(0, SHCONTF_FOLDERS, EnumIDList) = NOERROR then begin while EnumIDList.Next(1, CurPidl, Fetched) = S_OK do begin FName:= GetDisplayName(CurFolder, CurPidl, SHGDN_NORMAL); Text:= GetPIDLNameForAddressBar(CurFolder, CurPidl); if bool then Text:= PSpecialFolderItem(SpecialFolders[0]).Name + '\' + Text; if Text[Length(Text)] <> '\' then Text:= Text + '\'; NewPidl:= ConcatPIDLs(SelectedPIDL, CurPidl); SHGetFileInfo(PChar(NewPidl), 0, SFI, SizeOf(SFI), SHGFI_ATTRIBUTES or SHGFI_PIDL or SHGFI_SYSICONINDEX or SHGFI_TYPENAME); n:= SFI.dwAttributes; MenuList.Add(GetAttr(n) + FName); AddMenuItem(Text, FName, SFI.iIcon); CoTaskMemFree(CurPidl); CoTaskMemFree(NewPidl); end; end; CoTaskMemFree(SelectedPIDL); Any solution for how to get the correct sorting order? It is strange there is no way in dwAttributes of TSHFileInfo to tell if a folder is a system folder. Roy M Klever

  • Unfold vCard lines in shell

    - by l0b0
    vCard lines can be folded by inserting "\r\n " (that's a space at the start of the new line), but I'm struggling to unfold them with the line-oriented GNU tools (sed, cut). Any ideas? Effectively, from the string foo bar baz ban bay bal it must return foobar baz banbaybal

  • Delphi Shell IExtractIcon usage and result

    - by Roy M Klever
    What I do: Try to extract thumbnail using IExtractImage if that fail I try to extract icons using IExtractIcon, to get maximum iconsize, but IExtractIcon gives strange results. Problem is I tried to use a methode that extracts icons from an imagelist but if there is no large icon (256x256) it will render the smaller icon at the topleft position of the icon and that does not look good. That is why I am trying to use the IExtractIcon instead. But icons that show up as 256x256 icons in my imagelist extraction methode reports icon sizes as 33 large and 16 small. So how do I check if a large (256x256) icon exists? If you need more info I can provide som sample code. if PThumb.Image = nil then begin OleCheck(ShellFolder.ParseDisplayName(0, nil, StringToOleStr(PThumb.Name), Eaten, PIDL, Atribute)); ShellFolder.GetUIObjectOf(0, 1, PIDL, IExtractIcon, nil, XtractIcon); CoTaskMemFree(PIDL); bool:= False; if Assigned(XtractIcon) then begin GetLocationRes := XtractIcon.GetIconLocation(GIL_FORSHELL, @Buf, sizeof(Buf), IIdx, IFlags); if (GetLocationRes = NOERROR) or (GetLocationRes = E_PENDING) then begin Bmp := TBitmap.Create; try OleCheck(XtractIcon.Extract(@Buf, IIdx, LIcon, SIcon, 32 + (16 shl 16))); Done:= False; Roy M Klever

  • grep 5 seconds of input from the serial port inside a shell-script

    - by pica
    I've got a device that I'm operating next to my PC and as it runs it's spitting log lines out it's serial port. I have this wired to my PC and I can see the log lines fine if I'm using either minicom or something like: ttylog -b 115200 -d /dev/ttyS0 I want to write 5 seconds of the device serial output to a temp file (or assign it to a variable) and then later grep that file for keywords that will let me know how the device is operating. I've already tried redirecting the output to a file while running the command in the background, and then sleeping 5 seconds and killing the process, but the log lines never get written to my temp file. Example: touch tempFile ttylog -b 115200 -d /dev/ttyS0 >> tempFile & serialPID=$! sleep 5 #kill ${serialPID} #does not work, gets wrong PID killall ttylog cat tempFile The file gets created but never filled with any data. I can also replace the ttylog line with: ttylog -b 115200 -d /dev/ttyS0 |tee -a tempFile & In neither case do I ever see any log lines logged to stdout or the log file unless I have multiple versions of ttylog running by mistake (see commented out line, D'oh). I have no idea what's going on here. It seems to be a failure of redirection within my script. Am I on the right track? Is there a better way to sample 5 seconds of the serial port?

  • Shell script argument parsing

    - by Peter Coulton
    There are a number of questions about this sort of thing but lets imagine we are targeting a generic Linux system with both getopt and getopts installed (not that we'll use either, but they seem popular) How do I parse both long (--example | --example simple-option) and short argruments (-e | -esimple-example | -e simple-example)

  • GnuPG Shell Script - Refuses to read password

    - by OopsForgotMyOtherUserName
    The script below used to work on Mac OS X, but, since moving it to Ubuntu, it doesn't seem to read from the password file at all. Even when I run it from the command line, no matter what I do, I get a popup prompt asking me for the password. As this will run via cron, I don't want this to happen... I want it to read the password from the file with no prompt. To note, I did try using passphrase-fd and passphrase-file, neither of which worked... #!/bin/sh p=$(<pass.txt) set -- $p pass_phrase=$1 destination="/var/www/decrypted" cd /var/sl_bin/ for FILE in *.pgp; do FILENAME=${FILE%.pgp} gpg --passphrase "$pass_phrase" --output "$destination/$FILENAME" --decrypt "$FILE" rm -f $FILE done

  • Difference between piping a file to sh and calling a shell file

    - by Peter Coulton
    This is what was trying to do: $ wget -qO- www.example.com/script.sh | sh which quietly downloads the script and prints it to stdout which is then piped to sh. This unfortunately doesn't quite work, failing to wait for user input a various points, aswell as a few syntax errors. This is what actually works: $ wget -qOscript www.example.com/script.sh && chmod +x ./script && ./script But what's the difference? I'm thinking maybe piping the file doesn't execute the file, but rather executes each line individually, but I'm new to this kind of thing so I don't know.

    I have this script that I am currently running that works great for all instances but one: #!/bin/sh pdfopt test.pdf test.opt.pdf &>/dev/null pdf2swf test.opt.pdf test.swf [ "$?" -ne 0 ] && exit 2 More lines to execute follow the above code ... How would I go about changing this script to run "pdf2swf test.pdf test.swf" if "pdf2swf test.opt.pdf test.swf" fails? If the second attempt fails, then I would "exit 2". Thanks

  • Shell script task status monitoring

    - by Bikram Agarwal
    I'm running an ANT task in background and checking in 60 second intervals whether that task is complete or not. If it is not, every 60 seconds, a message should be displayed on screen - "Deploy process is still running. $slept seconds since deploy started", where $slept is 60, 120, 180 n so on. There's a limit of 1200 seconds, after which the script will show the log via 'ant log' command and ask the user whether to continue. If the user chooses to continue, 300 seconds are added to the time limit and the process repeats. The code that I am using for this task is - ant deploy & limit=1200 deploy_check() { while [ ${slept:-0} -le $limit ]; do sleep 60 && slept=`expr ${slept:-0} + 60` if [ $$ = "`ps -o ppid= -p $!`" ]; then echo "Deploy process is still running. $slept seconds since deploy started." else wait $! && echo "Application ${New_App_Name} deployed successfully" || echo "Deployment of ${New_App_Name} failed" break fi done } deploy_check if [ $$ = "`ps -o ppid= -p $!`" ]; then echo "Deploy process did not finish in $slept seconds. Here's the log." ant log echo "Do you want to kill the process? Press Ctrl+C to kill. Press Enter to continue." read log limit=`expr ${limit} + 300` deploy_check fi Now, the problem is - this code is not working. This looks like a perfectly good code and yet, this is not working. Can anyone point out what is wrong with this code, please.

  • Shell script to name videos on device

    - by Jordan
    I have a .sh script that automounts any usb device that is plugged in. I need it to also find if there are videos in a certain location on the device that is plugged in then write them to a videos.txt file. Here's what I have and its not working. Also I need it to put the mountpoint in the videos.txt file. ${MOUNTPOINT}$count is the path to the mounted device. VIDEOS=ls ${MOUNTPOINT}$count/dcim/100Video | grep mp4 if [ "$VIDEOS" -ne "" ] ; then "${MOUNTPOINT}$count" > ${MOUNTPOINT}$count/videos.txt; "$VIDEOS" >> ${MOUNTPOINT}$count/videos.txt; fi What am I doing wrong?

  • Linux: shell builtin string matching

    I am trying to become more familiar with using the builtin string matching stuff available in shells in linux. I came across this guys posting, and he showed an example a="abc|def" echo ${a#*|} # will yield "def" echo ${a%|*} # will yield "abc" I tried it out and it does what its advertised to do, but I don't understand what the $,{},#,*,| are doing, I tried looking for some reference online or in the manuals but I couldn't find anything. Can anyone explain to me what's going on here?

  • How to: Simulating keystroke inputs in shell to an app running in an embedded target

    - by fzkl
    I am writing an automation script that runs on an embedded linux target. A part of the script involves running an app on the target and obtaining some data from the stdout. Stdout here is the ssh terminal connection I have to the target. However, this data is available on the stdout only if certain keys are pressed and the key press has to be done on the keyboard connected to the embedded target and not on the host system from which I have ssh'd into the target. Is there any way to simulate this? Edit: Elaborating on what I need - I have an OpenGL app that I run on the embedded linux (works like regular linux) target. This displays some graphics on the embedded system's display device. Pressing f on the keyboard connected to the target outputs the fps data onto the ssh terminal from which I control the target. Since I am automating the process of running this OpenGL app and obtaining the fps scores, I can't expect a keyboard to be connected to the target let alone expect a user to input a keystroke on the embedded target keyboard. How do I go about this? Thanks.

  • Substring extraction using bash shell scripting and awk

The script is below. result=`grep 'packet loss' dummy` | awk '{ first=match($0,"[0-9]+%") last=match($0," packet loss") s=substr($0,first,last-first) print s}' echo $result I want the value of $result to basically be 100% in this case. But for some reason, it just prints out a blank string. Can anyone help me?
