I've seen several examples of grep showing the filename the string was found in, but what I really need is grep to show the file details in long format (like ls -l would).
scenario is:
grep mobile_number todays_files
This will show me the string I'm after & which files they turn up in, but... (2 Replies)
I have several very large file that are extracts from Oracle tables. These files are formatted in XML type syntax with multiple entries like:
<ROW>
some information
more information
</ROW>
I want to grep for some words, then print all lines between <ROW> AND </ROW>. Can this be done with AWK?... (7 Replies)
Hi guys,
This is probably very easy but I've no idea how to pull this out.
Basically, I need to find errors into a very large logfile. When you grep the ID, the output is like this:
+- Type: 799911 Code: Ret: 22728954 Mand: X Def: Des: UserDes: SeqNo: 2

POE::Filter::Grep(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation POE::Filter::Grep(3pm)NAME
POE::Filter::Grep - select or remove items based on simple rules
SYNOPSIS
#!perl
use POE qw(
Wheel::FollowTail
Filter::Line Filter::Grep Filter::Stackable
);
POE::Session->create(
inline_states => {
_start => sub {
my $parse_input_as_lines = POE::Filter::Line->new();
my $select_sudo_log_lines = POE::Filter::Grep->new(
Put => sub { 1 },
Get => sub {
my $input = shift;
return $input =~ /sudo[d+]/i;
},
);
my $filter_stack = POE::Filter::Stackable->new(
Filters => [
$parse_input_as_lines, # first on get, last on put
$select_sudo_log_lines, # first on put, last on get
]
);

InputEvent => "got_log_line",

DESCRIPTION
POE::Filter::Grep selects or removes items based on simple tests. It may be used to filter input, output, or both. This filter is named
and modeled after Perl's built-in grep() function.
POE::Filter::Grep is designed to be combined with other filters through POE::Filter::Stackable. In the "SYNOPSIS" example, a filter stack
is created to parse logs as lines and remove all entries that don't pertain to a sudo process. (Or if your glass is half full, the stack
only selects entries that DO mention sudo.)
PUBLIC FILTER METHODS
In addition to the usual POE::Filter methods, POE::Filter::Grep also supports the following.
new
new() constructs a new POE::Filter::Grep object. It must either be called with a single Code parameter, or both a Put and a Get parameter.
The values for Code, Put, and Get are code references that, when invoked, return true to select an item or false to reject it. A Code
function will be used for both input and output, while Get and Put functions allow input and output to be filtered in different ways. The
item in question will be passed as the function's sole parameter.
sub reject_bidoofs {
my $pokemon = shift;
return 1 if $pokemon ne "bidoof";
return;
}
my $gotta_catch_nearly_all = POE::Filter::Grep->new(
Code => &reject_bidoofs,
);
Enforce read-only behavior:
my $read_only = POE::Filter::Grep->new(
Get => sub { 1 },
Put => sub { 0 },
);
modify
modify() changes a POE::Filter::Grep object's behavior at run-time. It accepts the same parameters as new(), and it replaces the existing
tests with new ones.
# Don't give away our Dialgas.
$gotta_catch_nearly_all->modify(
Get => sub { 1 },
Put => sub { return shift() ne "dialga" },
);
