Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Bash to store result in variable for other lines in script to use Post 302989735 by cmccabe on Tuesday 17th of January 2017 02:21:30 PM

I will give that a try. Alternatively since the results of the bash have the $filename value in it (in bold), maybe that could be extracted and stored as $filename.


log stored by the bash at /home/cmccabe/medex.logs/folder.log

Code:
The oldest folder is R_2017_01_13_12_11_56_user_S5-00580-24-Medexome, created on 2017-01-17+11:31:02.5035483130 and analysis done using v1.4 by cmccabe at 01/17/17 12:41:03 PM

So the R_2017_01_13_12_11_56_user_S5-00580-24-Medexome would be extracted and saved as $filename for the below processes to use.

Code:
 (these are just two of 50 that all use the $filename variable)

I am going to repost as a new detail came up that I overlooked.  Thanks again :).


mkdir -p /home/cmccabe/Desktop/NGS/API/$filename/{bam/{validation,coverage},bedtools,fastqc,hgmd,igv,panel/{reads,},panel/20x/{base,gene,percent},panel/{reads,},panel/30x/{base,gene,percent},pdf,picard,torrent,vcf/overall/{annovar,stats},vcf/panel/{annovar,}}

# create analysis log
echo "analysis done using v1.4 by $USER at $(date "+%D %r")" > /home/cmccabe/Desktop/NGS/API/$filename/analysis.txt

Thank you very much Smilie.

awk
Code:
awk -F" is " '{print $NF}' log

LIBBASH(7)							  libbash Manual							LIBBASH(7)

NAME
libbash -- A bash shared libraries package. DESCRIPTION
libbash is a package that enables bash dynamic-like shared libraries. Actually its a tool for managing bash scripts whose functions you may want to load and use in scripts of your own. It contains a 'dynamic loader' for the shared libraries ( ldbash(1)), a configuration tool (ldbashconfig(8)), and some libraries. Using ldbash(1) you are able to load loadable bash libraries, such as getopts(1) and hashstash(1). A bash shared library that can be loaded using ldbash(1) must answer 4 requirments: 1. It must be installed in $LIBBASH_PREFIX/lib/bash (default is /usr/lib/bash). 2. It must contain a line that begins with '#EXPORT='. That line will contain (after the '=') a list of functions that the library exports. I.e. all the function that will be usable after loading that library will be listed in that line. 3. It must contain a line that begins with '#REQUIRE='. That line will contain (after the '=') a list of bash libraries that are required for our library. I.e. every bash library that is in use in our bash library must be listed there. 4. The library must be listed (For more information, see ldbashconfig(8)). Basic guidelines for writing library of your own: 1. Be aware, that your library will be actually sourced. So, basically, it should contain (i.e define) only functions. 2. Try to declare all variables intended for internal use as local. 3. Global variables and functions that are intended for internal use (i.e are not defined in '#EXPORT=') should begin with: __<library_name>_ For example, internal function myfoosort of hashstash library should be named as __hashstash_myfoosort This helps to avoid conflicts in global name space when using libraries that come from different vendors. 4. See html manual for full version of this guide. AUTHORS
