Linux Comparing two strings receiving form two different loops and execute if condition when single match
I want to read a file contain sub-string and same string need to match in file name I got from for loop. I am using below code:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
C_UPLOADEDSUFFIX='.uploaded'
files=$(find . -iname '*'$C_UPLOADEDSUFFIX -type f)  # find files having .uploaded prefix
for file in $files
do
 CHK_FILE=$(basename $file)
     while read -r line; do
                  set -f          # disable globbing
 
          if [[ $CHK_FILE =~ "${line}*" ]]
 
          then
 
                  uploader()
          else
                  trap()
          fi
 
  done < FILE_NAME.txt
done

in this code if match found in if statement then uploader() run else trap() run, so it always goes to else part unnecessarily each time if condition fails.
I want, if condition " [[ $CHK_FILE =~ "${line}*" ]]” first check for all strings in FILE_NAME.txt one by one and if at least single match found then it must execute uploader() else execute trap().

Code:
FILE_NAME.txt---->
Blacklist
Customer
languages
Nationality

Try using grep:

Code:
if grep -q $line $CHK_FILE ; then ... ; fi
