Need help to use regex to do search and replace. Don't know how to and can't figure out how :(
Hi,
Below is an excerpt from a 20000+ lines and I want to do a search and replace of a specific string but I don't know how and I can't figure out how to. Can't find an example from Google or anywhere to do what I am wanting to do.
Code:
A 2018-11-21 08:42:17 TEST_TEST 2018-11-21 00:50:45 Accessed: 2,146,893,824 /NFS_mnt/mnlNFS111/vol_abcp_db/abcp/.snapshot/mnl1ns123_vol_abcp_db_ss.0/db/temp/abcp_temp_10.dbf
A 2018-11-21 08:41:52 TEST_TEST 2018-11-21 00:50:45 Accessed: 2,146,697,216 /NFS_mnt/mnlNFS111/vol_abcp_db/abcp/.snapshot/mnl1ns123_vol_abcp_db_ss.0/db/temp/abcp_temp_9.dbf
A 2018-11-21 03:29:04 TEST_TEST 2017-06-17 22:01:33 Accessed: 22,528 /NFS_mnt/mnlNFS111/vol_abcp_db/abcp/.snapshot/mnl1ns123_vol_abcp_db_ss.0/db/LTS/abcp_ABCD_TEST_COMM_P201406_tts_exp.dta
A 2018-11-21 03:28:57 TEST_TEST 2017-06-17 22:01:28 Accessed: 563,101,696 /NFS_mnt/mnlNFS111/vol_abcp_db/abcp/.snapshot/mnl1ns123_vol_abcp_db_ss.0/db/LTS/abcp_abcd_test_comm_201406_data_01.dbf
I need to search for all lines that contain the string /db/LTS/abcp_ but only those that ends in .dbf. So from the excerpts above, it should find the line below:
Code:
A 2018-11-21 03:28:57 TEST_TEST 2017-06-17 22:01:28 Accessed: 563,101,696 /NFS_mnt/mnlNFS111/vol_abcp_db/abcp/.snapshot/mnl1ns123_vol_abcp_db_ss.0/db/LTS/abcp_abcd_test_comm_201406_data_01.dbf
And I want to replace them so it so that it will be
Code:
A 2018-11-21 03:28:57 TEST_TEST 2017-06-17 22:01:28 Accessed: 563,101,696 /NFS_mnt/mnlNFS111/vol_abcp_db/abcp/.snapshot/mnl1ns123_vol_abcp_db_ss.0/db/LTS/abct_abcd_test_comm_201406_data_01.dbf
So, basically I need to change /db/LTS/abcp_ to /db/LTS/abct_. It is the one in BOLD that I am wanting to search and replace.
The grep regex below seems to do what I wanted. But I don't know how to do like a sed search and replace thing
P.S.:
- Is there any way to colorize or highlight certain text? I was hoping to be able to do that in this post but can't find the option to do so. I thought that option was available on the older forum ???

Hi,
I need to run a search and replace on a large database,
what I need to change is all instances of

But there might be other numbers in there such as
(1764) and I do not need those changed to ((1764))

Hi,
I'm trying to match the front and back of a sequence. It works when there is an exact match (obviously), but I need the regex to be more flexible. When we get strings of nucleotides sometimes their prefixes and suffixes aren't exact matches. Sometimes there will be an extra letter and... (2 Replies)

smd-client
smd-client(1) Sync Mail Dir (smd) documentation smd-client(1)NAME
smd-client - receives diffs and performs actions
SYNOPSIS
smd-client [-v|--verbose] [-d|--dry-run] [-t|--translator]
[-l|--local-sync] [--rename-only]
[--override-db dbf] endpoint mailboxes
DESCRIPTION
smd-client needs to know a name (endpoint) for the client (that must not be used by others) and a list of mailboxes (directories).
smd-client waits on stdin a mail dir diff. It attempts to execute these actions, eventually asking data printing commands on stdout and
expecting the data on stdin.
OPTIONS -t --translator
Specify a program to translate remote mailbox names to local ones. Note that the translator 'cat' (the identity program) is opti-
mized away
-l --local-sync
Local synchronization, no changes is made to the db-file since smd-server takes care of it
--rename-only
Do not synchronize the mailboxes but generate the script '~/smd-rename.sh' to uniform the files names in the mailbox
--override-db dbf
Use dbf as the db-file
-v --verbose
Increase program verbosity (printed on stderr)
-d --dry-run
Do not perform any action for real
NOTES
smd-client is a low level utility. You should use higher level tools like smd-pull(1) and smd-push(1)SEE ALSO mddiff(1), smd-server(1), smd-pull(1), smd-push(1)AUTHOR
