awk script for automating the other commercial software command lines
Dear All

I need awk script to automated the other software command lines.

I am having input files like "shape_eon_input_1.oeb.gz" to "shape_eon_input_968.oeb.gz" total of 968 files.

For each files i have to run command line "
Code:
eon -dbase shape_eon_input_1.oeb.gz -besthits 47000 -prefix Eon-1

I have to run individually 968 times for each file.

Is it possible to automate the command using awk script, such that

for 2nd file it takes command as
Code:
eon -dbase shape_eon_input_2.oeb.gz -besthits 47000 -prefix Eon-2

for 3rd file
Code:
eon -dbase shape_eon_input_3.oeb.gz -besthits 47000 -prefix Eon-3

and for 100th file
Code:
eon -dbase shape_eon_input_100.oeb.gz -besthits 47000 -prefix Eon-100


Kindly advice.

Many Thanks
Balaji

It is certainly possible to do this with awk, but it is much easier in shell.
Try:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
for file in shape_eon_input_[1-9].oeb.gz shape_eon_input_[1-9][[0-9].oeb.gz shape_eon_input_[1-9][0-9][0-9].oeb.gz
do      seq=${file##*_}
        seq=${seq%%.*}
        eon -dbase $file -besthits 47000 -prefix Eon-$seq
done

This will work with up to 999 files named using this scheme. There are other ways to do this using for i in {1-968} and similar extensions, but these aren't available on all systems and are not defined by the standards. The script above should work with any POSIX conforming shell (I use ksh).

Hi Don

Thanks for help.

I save the script as eon-run.sh and tried to run the script as " sh eon-run.sh"

It shows error as "eon command not found in line 5.

However, the command line works if i run the one by one.

Kindly advice.

Many Thanks
Balaji

Please enter the following command in your shell:
Code:
echo $PATH
type eon

and add the same two lines as the 2nd and 3rd lines of eon-run.sh.

Then rerun eon-run.sh and compare the output of those two commands.

Note that unless you only intend to run this script once, rather than using the command:
Code:
 sh eon-run.sh

to run this script, it is usually easier to do the following:
Code:
chmod +x eon-run.sh
mv eon-run.sh $HOME/bin

and then just execute it using the command:
Code:
eon-run.sh

but, of course, this assumes that $HOME/bin is an existing directory and that $HOME/bin is in $PATH.

Note that if ksh isn't located in /bin on your system, you'll need to edit the 1st line of eon-run.sh to specify an absolute pathname of ksh on your system.

Hi Don

I am trying todo the second step.

I checked for path of ksh, as you mentioned its in the path /bin/ksh.

If /home/Balaji is my curremt working directory, where should I have to add the lines

Code:
chmod +x eon-run.sh
mv eon-run.sh $HOME/bin

Please advice.

Many Thanks
Balaji

I repeat: Type those two commands into your shell. And, add them as new lines in eon-run.sh after the line #!/bin/ksh and rerun eon-run.sh.
Compare the results of running those commands in your shell and running those commands in eon-run.sh. (Or just post the output from your shell when you run those commands and post the output from eon-run.sh when you rerun it.)

Hi don

I added the lines

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
echo $/home/Balaji/electrostatics
type eon

for file in shape_eon_input_[1-9].oeb.gz shape_eon_input_[1-9][[0-9].oeb.gz shape_eon_input_[1-9][0-9][0-9].oeb.gz
do      seq=${file##*_}
        seq=${seq%%.*}
        eon -dbase $file -besthits 47500 -prefix Eon-seq
done

and I tried running the command eon_run.sh, it shows error as

Code:
bash: eon_run.sh.: coomand not found

Kindly advice.

Many Thanks
Balaji
