Shell Programming and Scripting

Hello: I have another question. Please consider the following two sample, tab-delimited files:

File_1:

Abf1 YKL112w
Abf1 YAL054c
Abf1 YGL234w
Ace2 YKL150w
Ace2 YNL328c
Cup9 YDR441c
Cup9 YDR442w
Cup9 YEL040w
...


File 2:

...
ABF1 YKL112W
ACE2 YLR131C
CUP9 YPL177C
...

File_2 is a “lookup table;” I want to replace $1 in File_1 with the matching $2 field in File_2, additionally adding a middle column containing the string “tf”, and a column of “ones” (“1” in the first column position), all tab-delimited.

Additionally, it would be ideal if the case could be ignored for the search / replace, but that the alphabetical output be all uppercase [a-z] converted to [A-Z].

FYI, these are yeast genes; in addition to numbers and letters, some of the genes will contain dashes (e.g., YBR162W-A), but none will contain commas, semicolons, spaces, etc.

Output File_3:

1 YKL112W tf YKL112W
1 YKL112W tf YAL054C
1 YKL112W tf YGL234W
1 YLR131C tf YKL150W
1 YLR131C tf YNL328C
1 YLR131C tf YLR439W
1 YPL177C tf YDR441C
1 YPL177C tf YDR442W
1 YPL177C tf YEL040W
...

This is related to (but different from) my earlier query,

https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...#post302183287

Here, the first column is a “dummy” weight value, to maintain “field compatibility,” with my earlier file, as shown in this example:

1 a gi b
1 a pp a
1 a pp c
1 t gi u
1 t gi w
1 t gi x
1 t pp z
2 a pp d
2 a pp e
2 t gi v
2 t gi z
3 a pp b
3 t gi y
...

Ultimately, I will end up with a file like this, with $1 = weight, $2 = gene1, $3 = association, $4 = gene2:


1 YKL112W tf YKL112W
1 YKL112W tf YAL054C
1 YKL112W tf YGL234W
1 YLR131C tf YKL150W
1 YLR131C tf YNL328C
1 YLR131C tf YLR439W
1 YPL177C tf YDR441C
1 YPL177C tf YDR442W
1 YPL177C tf YEL040W
...
1 YBL012C gi YCL045C
1 YBL012C pp YBL012C
5 YBL012C pp YHR039C-A
1 YLR363W-A gi YNL143C
4 YLR363W-A gi YPR123C
1 YLR363W-A gi YLR467W
1 YLR363W-A pp YNR073C
2 YBL012C pp YGL232W
2 YBL012C pp YOR102W
2 YLR363W-A gi YFL066C
2 YLR363W-A gi YNR073C
3 YBL012C pp YCL045C
3 YLR363W-A gi YKL100C
...

Thank you - Once again, *very* much appreciated!

Sincerely, Greg S. :-)

This should give the desired output:

Code:

 awk '
FNR==NR{a[tolower($1)]=$2;next} 
tolower($1) in a{print "1 " a[tolower($1)] " tf " toupper($2)}
' "File_2" "File_1"

Regards

This is absolutely wonderful! ... :-)

Here is my understanding of Franklin52's code:

Unix Manuals - AWK Reference

# == is “is equal”

tolower(string): Return the string with all upper case characters replaced with their lower case equivalents.

toupper(string): Return the string with all lower case characters replaced with their upper case equivalents.

FNR: Record number in input file.

NR: Number of records processed.

Thus, the above script translates (? - please correct me if I am mistaken) as

awk'
FNR==NR{a[tolower($1)]=$2;next}

while the record number (line) equals the total number of records (is true), do all of the following:
get $1 (the common gene name - converted to LOWERcase - required since the corresponding field in File_1 is lowercase; otherwise, it will fail to “match” - linux is case-sensitive) in the lookup file (File_2), set (change it) to the (already uppercase) systematic gene name ($2) in the same lookup table, then read the next record number (line);

tolower($1) in a{print "1 " a[tolower($1)] " tf " toupper($2)}

now, for each $1 in File_2 (now set to uppercase $2, from the lookup table), in the second file (File_1, the one to be converted), print
“1”, $2 from File_2; “tf”, $2 from File_1 (returned as uppercase, to convert the trailing lowercase c, w, -a, etc.)

' "File_2" "File_1"

File_1 = file to be processed (converted)
File_2 = “lookup file” ("common_to_systematic.tab)

?!


This works brilliantly!! Thank you so much, Franklin52!!

Have a super weekend! ... Greg :-)

Is it possible to modify the script above to rename files based on a lookup table?

e.g.:
Current New
A87324.jpg A1372365.jpg
A89732.jpg A98274.jpg
A130347.jpg A73689.jpg
...

Thanks,

Rick

Code:

#!/bin/ksh

while read current new x
do
   mv "${current}" "${new}"
done < /path/to/lookupFile

hi guys!!

I am new to shell script.. i wanted to know abt sed command and how it work?

here is what i want do, i want to search original string in export.txt file which is:
export mibs =\opt\mymibs\

i want to replace it by
export mibs =\opt\new_mibs\

Please help with it

thanks in advance

hi vgersh99,
could u solve my above query? thanks
