Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Regex: print matched line and exact pattern match Post 302909051 by bakunin on Monday 14th of July 2014 06:05:53 AM

With files that big performance considerations are perhaps vital, so take the following with a grain of salt. I have no file that big to test it.

Instead of using "-f <file>" to read the file automatically you could probably read the file in a shell loop and feed one regexp after the other to "zgrep", like this (just a skeleteon):

Code:
#! /bin/sh

fOut="/path/to/result.txt"

cat /dev/null > "$fOut"
while read LINE ; do
     echo "---------- $LINE" >> "$fOut"
     zgrep -iE "$LINE" <file-list> >> "$fOut"
done

Depending on your regexps you may or may not have to escape some characters so that they are not interpreted by the shell.

I hope this helps.

ZGREP(1)                                                      General Commands Manual                                                     ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
