Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Logic to separate the first name in the file Post 302999437 by ricky-row on Tuesday 20th of June 2017 08:21:12 AM

I have made this function in script, I need to use the VAR in other way after the function, do you have any idea how to do that

if there are 10 files with *.rpm, I need to store the VAR values like abc, xy-z, etc.. in a new file. So, after this function I have to check for the file existence first, if not have to create a file named test.txt.
then inside the file
Code:
NAME = abc 
TYPE = txt

for all the 10 fiiles.
NOTE: if already the file is existing it can overwrite the same file but 11th file is added it should not delete the existing in the test.txt, it should be added at the end.

Code:
test()
{
  pushd packages &>/dev/null
  mkdir -p ../info
  for p in $(ls *.rpm 2>/dev/null);do
    VAR=($(echo $p| sed 's/-[0-9].*//';))
    if [ -e /info/$VAR.list} ]; then continue;fi
      rpm -qlp $p | sed -re 's/^/./' > /info/$VAR.list};;
    esac
  done
  popd &>/dev/null
}
test

Please wrap all code, files, input & output/errors in CODE tags.
it makes it easier to read and preserves spaces for indenting or fixed-width data.

NAME
Alien::Package::Rpm - an object that represents a rpm package DESCRIPTION
This is an object class that represents a rpm package. It is derived from Alien::Package. FIELDS
prefixes Relocatable rpm packages have a prefixes field. METHODS
checkfile Detect rpm files by their extention. install Install a rpm. If RPMINSTALLOPT is set in the environement, the options in it are passed to rpm on its command line. scan Implement the scan method to read a rpm file. unpack Implement the unpack method to unpack a rpm file. This is a little nasty because it has to handle relocatable rpms and has to do a bit of permissions fixing as well. prep Prepare for package building by generating the spec file. cleantree Delete the spec file. build Build a rpm. If RPMBUILDOPT is set in the environement, the options in it are passed to rpm on its command line. An optional parameter, if passed, can be used to specify the program to use to build the rpm. It defaults to rpmbuild. version Set/get version. When retreiving the version, remove any dashes in it. postinst postrm preinst prerm Set/get script fields. When retrieving a value, we have to do some truely sick mangling. Since debian/slackware scripts can be anything -- perl programs or binary files -- and rpm is limited to only shell scripts, we need to encode the files and add a scrap of shell script to make it unextract and run on the fly. When setting a value, we do some mangling too. Rpm maintainer scripts are typically shell scripts, but often lack the leading shebang line. This can confuse dpkg, so add the shebang if it looks like there is no shebang magic already in place. Additionally, it's not uncommon for rpm maintainer scripts to contain bashisms, which can be triggered when they are ran on systems where /bin/sh is not bash. To work around this, the shebang line of the scripts is changed to use bash. Also, if the rpm is relocatable, the script could refer to RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX, which is set by rpm at run time. Deal with this by adding code to the script to set RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX. arch Set/get arch field. When the arch field is set, some sanitizing is done first to convert it to the debian format used internally. When it's retreived it's converted back to rpm form from the internal form. AUTHOR
