I have a file containing some text and some kind of placeHolder, and another file with some other text
Eg:
myText.txt:
some text strings plus a {{myPlaceholderText}} and some more text
myPlaceholderText.txt:
more text here
I want to be able to create a 3rd file containing the string:
"some text strings plus a more text here and some more text"
Is it possible to do that using command line tools?
I think sed is the easiest way to do it:
$ sed "s/{{myPlaceholderText}}/$(<myPlaceholder.txt)/g" myText.txt
some text strings plus a more text here and some more text
Yes. And bash is the safest common tool besides interpreted languages.
#!/bin/bash
R=$(<myPlaceholderText.txt)
while read -r LINE; do
echo "${LINE//'{{myPlaceholderText}}'/$R}"
done < myText.txt > another_file.txt
Output to another_file.txt:
some text strings plus a more text here and some more text
Another through awk:
awk 'BEGIN{getline r < ARGV[1];ARGV[1]=""}{gsub(/{{myPlaceholderText}}/,r)}1' myPlaceholderText.txt myText.txt > another_file.txt

I am trying to delete the text between <pre><\pre> html tags using:
sed -i '/<pre>/,/<\/pre>/d' file.html
But this deletes the <pre></pre> tags too. The are only one pre tag pair in the file.
How can I avoid to delete de pre tags?
Thanks.
This might work for you (GNU sed):
sed -n '/<pre>/{p;:a;n;/<\/pre>/!ba};p' file
Turn off implicit printing by using the -n option.
If a line contains <pre>, print it and fetch the next line.
If that line does not contain </pre> loop back and repeat.
Otherwise print all other lines.
I have tried multiple times to get digits between two html patterns.
Neither sed nor awk worked for me, since the examples in the internet were too easy to fit my task.
Here is the code I want to filter:
....class="a-size-base review-text">I WANT THIS TEXT</span></div> ....
So I would need a command that output: I WANT THIS TEXT between ...review-text"> and </span>
Do you have a clue? Thanks for the effort and greetings from Germany.
Here is the plain code
Try:
tr '\n' ' ' file.html | grep -o 'review-text">[^<>]*</span> *</div>' | cut -d'>' -f2 | cut -d'<' -f 1
It should work if there are no any tags inside "I WANT THIS TEXT"
I can't see the problem here supposing the text you want to extract doesn't contains < nor >.
For instance with POSIX REGEXP:
$ HTML_FILE=/tmp/myfile.html
$ sed -n "s/.*review-text.>\([^<]*\)<.*/\1/gp" $HTML_FILE
prints the text between HTML TAGS
I have a html text file and i want to format it so that paragraphs are always on the same line e.g.
<p>paragraph info here</p>
instead of
<p>paragraph
info here </p>
Is there a tool that enables me to do this
You can use sed
cat test.html |sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n/ /g' |sed 's/<\/p> /<\/p>\n/g'
In first run it remove all line break and then add it after paragraph tag
It is not clear but it work
While the requirement paragraphs are always on the same line would be met by simply joining the whole file to a single line, this solution is less radical:
perl -pe 'if (/<p>/../<\/p>/) { s/\n/ / unless /<\/p>/ }' test.html
i use sed to manipulate a html file so that i can import it into wordpress
now i have a problem to unify tags
e.g
`<Article> .... <ShortCut>... some text <ShortCut> some more text ... </ShortCut>
<ShortCut> some more text ... </ShortCut></ShortCut> </Article>...`
restult shoul be:
`<Article> .... <ShortCut>... some text some more text ... some more text ... </ShortCut>
</Article>...`
is there a way with sed to remove all these ShortCut Tags and leave only the first and the last between the Tags Article?
thx for any help!
Update: in the input file there are more then one article. therefore i can only consolidate the ShortCuts per Article section
Using awk
awk -F"</?ShortCut>" '{printf "%s <ShortCut>",$1; for (i=2;i<NF;i++) printf $i;print "</ShortCut> " $NF}' file
<Article> .... <ShortCut>... some text some more text ... some more text ... </ShortCut> </Article>...

How can I parse and output the text separated by real newlines and not all in one single line.
Thanks in advance.
It looks like your file does not contain a regular newline character but something else (looks like two spaces around a backslash).
If you want to separate the files using this (which looks like unusual) line separator, you can do that e.g. using sed(1).
