sh: Inserting tabs and moving text to 1 line
I trying to extract certain text from a csv file and then placing it into another csv file, but having problems getting the data to placed in one line with tab separated fields.
Basically would like to have text sent to interfaces.csv in one line seperated by tabs. As it currently places files in <new_line> with no tabs.
Some help would be great.
example of script::
------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
#
# <24/07/2007>
#
#
#
#
DIR=/home/files/reports
export DIR
LOGDIR=/home/me
export LOGDIR
rm $LOGDIR/interfaces.csv
rm $LOGDIR/log
for FILE in $DIR/*
do
cat $FILE | head -2 | tail -1 | cut -d'"' -f2 >> $LOGDIR/interfaces.csv
cat $FILE | head -6 | tail -1 | cut -d"," -f3,4 >> $LOGDIR/interfaces.csv
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
echo "$FILE FAILED!!" >> log
else
echo "$FILE COMPLETE!!" >> log
fi
done

processcsv.py
PROCESSCSV.PY(1) Virtualization Support PROCESSCSV.PY(1)
NAME
processcsv.py - process virt-top CSV files
SUMMARY
virt-top --csv data.csv
processcsv.py < data.csv
DESCRIPTION
virt-top is a top(1)-like utility for showing stats of virtualized domains.
processcsv.py is a simple Python script that post-processes the output of "virt-top --csv".
It is used like this:
virt-top --csv data.csv
processcsv.py < data.csv
The second command will overwrite the following files in the current directory:
"global.csv"
This contains the global (host) statistics columns from the CSV file.
"domainNN.csv" (multiple files)
For each libvirt domain ID NN, a file is created containing the per-domain statistics from the CSV file.
