Hi Gents,

I am having a xml request, I need to match the entire paragraph in unix regex. Can some one please provide me the regex for unix. I need to embed this in a shell script. Below is the XML. I am bit weak in regular expression.

Regex *testameykamble* here testameykamble is my key word.

Thanks in Advance Amey.

Can you explain what you mean by match entire paragraph?

I think it will be better if you can post desired output.

Thanks Bipin for the reply.

My output should be the entrire XML which i have pasted from a log file.

some thing like this the expresiion "*testameykamble*" should give me entire xml output from my log files.

Note sure if this is what you want! How about a script using grep command?
Code:
if [ $( grep "testameykamble" xmlfile 2> /dev/null ) ]
then
        cat xmlfile
fi

Thanks Bipin, this will only give me matching lines for the keyword. I want the entire xml as an output (paragraph)

Code:
awk 'BEGIN {
 f=0; n=1;
} /^[0-9]/ {
 f=1;
} /<\/LoginCustomerRequest>/ {
 f=0; print $0 > "temp";
 if(n==1) {
 file="temp";
 close(file);
 while((getline line < file ) > 0) {
   print line;
  }
 }
 n=0; "cat /dev/null" > file;
 close(file);
} f==1 {
 print $0 > "temp";
} /testameykamble/ {
 n=1;
}' xml

I tried running your script it works but it gives me other xml as well. I need only specific output. I would appreciate a regular expression.


any ways Thanks Bipin for the script.
