I want to read one row at time from above and create like below configuration for each service-desription
These are two different things, yes?
To read a line into a variable VAR do:
Code:
while read VAR ; do
echo the read line is: $VAR # this is an example how to use the variable
done < /path/to/your/input.file
If your line has several words you can use the shells field-splitting abilities to read the line into several variables. The first "field" goes to the first variable, the second to the second variable, etc. If there are less input words than variables the last variables will be empty. If there are more input words the last variable will get all the words which are not assigned up to there.
I suggest you try the following to sunderstand the mechanism: create a file with the following content:
while read VAR1 VAR2 VAR3 ; do
echo VAR1=\"$VAR1\" VAR2=\"$VAR2\" VAR3=\"$VAR3\"
done < /path/to/input.file
As a final addition you can use/modify the shell-internal IFS-variable to influence the way the shell defines what a "word" is. Per default the IFS value is a space, which is why in the above example "word1" was going into one variable and "word2" into the next. Suppose you have this file:
Code:
first value here=second value here=third value here
you could read that in, split not at spaces but at equal signs like this:
Code:
while IFS="=" read VAR1 VAR2 VAR3 ; do
echo VAR1=\"$VAR1\" VAR2=\"$VAR2\" VAR3=\"$VAR3\"
done < /path/to/input.file

script
SCRIPT(1) BSD General Commands Manual SCRIPT(1)NAME
script -- make typescript of terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-adfpqr] [-c command] [file]
DESCRIPTION
script makes a typescript of everything printed on your terminal. It is useful for students who need a hardcopy record of an interactive
session as proof of an assignment, as the typescript file can be printed out later with lpr(1).
If the argument file is given, script saves all dialogue in file. If no file name is given, the typescript is saved in the file typescript.
Option:
-a Append the output to file or typescript, retaining the prior contents.
-c command
Run the named command instead of the shell. Useful for capturing the output of a program that behaves differently when associated
with a tty.
-d When playing back a session with the -p flag, don't sleep between records when playing back a timestamped session.
-f Flush output after each write. This is useful for watching the script output in real time.
-p Play back a session recorded with the -r flag in real time.
-q Be quiet, and don't output started and ended lines.
-r Record a session with input, output, and timestamping.
The script ends when the forked shell exits (a control-D to exit the Bourne shell (sh(1)), and exit, logout or control-d (if ignoreeof is not
set) for the C-shell, csh(1)).
Certain interactive commands, such as vi(1), create garbage in the typescript file. script works best with commands that do not manipulate
the screen, the results are meant to emulate a hardcopy terminal.
ENVIRONMENT
The following environment variable is used by script:
SHELL If the variable SHELL exists, the shell forked by script will be that shell. If SHELL is not set, the Bourne shell is assumed. (Most
shells set this variable automatically).
SEE ALSO csh(1) (for the history mechanism).
HISTORY
The script command appeared in 3.0BSD.
BUGS
script places everything in the log file, including linefeeds and backspaces. This is not what the naive user expects.
