I have a text file which has blocks like

dir1/dir2/dir3/name_run_number1:
line1_run_number1_part1
line2_run_number1_part2
line3_run_number1_part3...

Each block is separated with a blank line and there is the ":" in the "header" of each one while each block has a unique "number1" after "run_" suffix which is also present in the lines inside the block

What I want to do is for each block, extract the "number1" as shown in the first line and then for the lines below count from 1-20 and give a message if a "partX" line is missing. Any bash or python would be fine

Thanks

  • bash is a command line interpreter, it doesn't do anything but call and orchestrate commands. Some of them can be sed, awk, python, perl... So "Any bash or python" makes little sense. – Stéphane Chazelas Jan 24 '15 at 17:55
  • Give longer example of input file and also desire output, it is hard to understand what do you want to achieve from given description. – jimmij Jan 24 '15 at 18:28

Based on given example of input|output decision can be:

awk -F_ '
    /:/ {
        for (i=0;i<20;i++) {
            getline
            sub("chunk","",$7)
            while ( i != +$7 ) {
                print "for " $2 " and " $5"_"$6 " you are missing chunk " i
                i++
                if (i>20)
                    break
                }
            }
    }' text.file

  • This does not work as expected...for instance sed -n '/number1:/,+20 {/:/d;/part[0-9]*$/! s/.*/your_message/p}' returns just "your_message" but nothing in case a "part" is missing and exactly which one – Just_Newbie Jan 24 '15 at 18:27
  • @Just_Newbie Therefore I ask for example input and desired output. – Costas Jan 24 '15 at 18:49
  • Input example Output/13TeV_modelA_1300_100/13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756: 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk0 <br/> 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk1 <br/> 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk10 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk11 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk12 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk13 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk14 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk15 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk16 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk17 13TeV_modelA_1300_100_run_30756_chunk18 clearly in this, some "chunks" are missing – Just_Newbie Jan 24 '15 at 19:52
  • the output could be any kind of "report" ie like for modelA and run_30756 you are missing chunk X <br/> – Just_Newbie Jan 24 '15 at 19:54
  • @Just_Newbie Have edited. Please check for real data. – Costas Jan 24 '15 at 21:11
