Shell script (not Perl) to parse xml with awk
Hi,

I have to make an script according to these:
- I have couples of files like:
xxxxxxxxxxxxx.csv
xxxxxxxxxxxxx_desc.xml
- every xml file has diferent fields, but keeps this format:
........
<defaultName>2011-02-25T16:43:43.582Z</defaultName>
........
<reportSearchPath>CAMID("ualdap:u:tekuid=USER,ou=people")/folder[@name='My Folders']/query[@name='TEST']</reportSearchPath>
.........

- So I have to make an script that, for every csv&xml couple, parse the xml file and takes date in format yyyymmdd_hhmmss, user (tekuid) and reportname (in the example above, 20110225_164358, USER and TEST). Once these 3 fields are extracted, both csv and xml files have to be renamed to this format:
reportname_yyyymmdd_hhmmss_user (.csv or .xml)
(in our example, TEST_20110225_164358_USER)

and moved to /reportname directory and /user directory (one copy in each directory)

My idea is a for loop obtained with a find command, the awk part to extract these 3 fields, and then the rename and move.

Could you please help me? I'm not an expert in scripting, specially in the awk part...

Thx in advance (and sorry for my English)

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.
