Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Loop to process 2 files with same name in different path Post 302562912 by Ophiuchus on Sunday 9th of October 2011 12:14:42 AM

Hi,

The code needs to process filename1 from folder1 and filename1 from folder2 to produce output1, filename2 from
folder1 and filename2 from folder2 to produce output2 and so on.

I need to process both at the same time because the output from file of folder1 is concatenated to output from file
of folder2.

I have the script that does that, but I have to insert path of both files manually.

So, I need a loop process all couples of files from 2 folders and for each process generate its
corresponding output file.

Something like this:
Code:
For each in folder1
do
# Begin of my current code
FileFolder1=/home/MyPath1/ ${each}
FileFolder2=/home/MyPath2/ ${each}

cat <<-RUTINE_FILE1
some line
sed 'some code' ${FileFolder1}
some line
RUTINE_FILE1

cat <<-RUTINE_FILE2
some line
awk '{some code}' ${FileFolder2}
some line
RUTINE_FILE2
# End of my current code

 Print ${each}.out
done

I think the loop as above would work, but with the structure of my code, I don't know how to create an output
(line in red) for each couple of files. I mean, create output1 when the loop processes filename1 from both files
and output2 when loop processes filename2 from both files.

Hope somebody could help me.

Much appreciated in advance.

NAME

       cachefslog - Cache File System logging

SYNOPSIS

       cachefslog [-f logfile | -h] cachefs_mount_point

DESCRIPTION

       The  cachefslog	command displays where CacheFS statistics are being logged. Optionally, it sets where CacheFS statistics are being logged,
       or it halts logging for a cache specified by cachefs_mount_point. The cachefs_mount_point argument is a mount point of a cache file system.
       All file systems cached under the same cache as cachefs_mount_point will be logged.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported. You must be super-user to use the -f and -h options.

       -f logfile    Specify the log file to be used.

       -h	     Halt logging.

OPERANDS

       cachefs_mount_point    A mount point of a cache file system.

USAGE

       See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of cachefslog when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2^31 bytes).

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 Checking the Logging of a directory.

       The example below checks if the directory /home/sam is being logged:

	 example% cachefslog /home/sam
	 not logged: /home/sam

       Example 2 Changing the logfile.

       The example below changes the logfile of  /home/sam to /var/tmp/samlog:

	 example# cachefslog -f /var/tmp/samlog /home/sam
	 /var/tmp/samlog: /home/sam

       Example 3 Verifying the change of a logfile.

       The example below verifies the change of the previous example:

	 example% cachefslog /home/sam
	 /var/tmp/samlog: /home/sam

       Example 4 Halting the logging of a directory.

       The example below halts logging for the /home/sam directory:

	 example# cachefslog -h /home/sam
	 not logged: /home/sam

EXIT STATUS
