[英]How to break a tail -f command in bash
How can I break a tail -f
in bash? 如何在bash中打断
tail -f
? Since this question is related to this question 由于这个问题与这个问题有关
tail -f | 尾巴-f | awk and end tail once data is found
一旦发现数据,awk和end tail
I tried the following: 我尝试了以下方法:
#! /bin/bash
tvar="testing"
(set -o pipefail && tail -f <<< "$tvar" | awk '{print; exit} END{ exit 1}' )
But the script is still hanging on to tail -f
但是脚本仍然挂在
tail -f
Well, the problem is not the tail -f
but the awk
which hangs. 好吧,问题不是
tail -f
而是挂起的awk
。 It is meant to terminate when EOF is found (with exit 1
). 这意味着在找到EOF时终止(具有
exit 1
)。 But there is no EOF found; 但是没有找到EOF。 the
tail -f
does not terminate, so there comes no EOF. tail -f
不终止,因此没有EOF。
Would the awk
terminate, then this would also break the pipe and the tail
would receive a SIGPIPE (which would terminate it). 如果
awk
终止,那么这也将破坏管道,并且tail
将收到SIGPIPE(终止)。
You must find a different condition on which to terminate. 您必须找到终止条件。
EDIT: 编辑:
To achieve what you want you can start the tail -f
in the background, remember its PID and kill it as soon as you do not need it anymore. 要实现所需的功能,可以在后台启动
tail -f
,记住其PID并在不再需要它时立即将其杀死。 Running in the background and using a pipe at the same time is tricky. 在后台运行并同时使用管道非常棘手。 The easiest way to do it would be to use a named pipe (FIFO):
最简单的方法是使用命名管道(FIFO):
mkfifo log.pipe
tail -f log > log.pipe & tail_pid=$!
awk ... < log.pipe
kill $tail_pid
rm log.pipe
It seems that switching from using <<<
to echo "$tvar" | tail -f
似乎从使用
<<<
切换到echo "$tvar" | tail -f
echo "$tvar" | tail -f
does what you want instead? echo "$tvar" | tail -f
是您想要的吗?
$> cat test.sh
#! /bin/bash
tvar="testing"
(set -o pipefail && echo "$tvar" | tail -f | awk '{print} END{ exit 1}' )
$> ./test.sh
testing
$>
Although the awk doesn't print anything out afterwards. 尽管awk之后没有打印任何内容。
