BEGIN 和 END 块像 awk 一样在 groovy 中

Question

At https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-1512 , a patch is available for executing BEGIN and END methods similar to awk or Perl. This could be useful for shell piping scenarios such as summing a list of numbers.

I tried various syntaxes using the current version of Groovy, but it does not execute. Can somebody tell me what the correct syntax is and provide an example for it?

To rephrase the question in detail. If I have the following,

my-desktop# du -s * | cut -f 1

I want something like the following (inspired from awk) that would print its sum:

du -s * | cut -f 1 | groovy -a -n -e 'def sum; BEGIN{sum =0; }END {println sum;}sum=sum+split[0].toInteger()'

If the special BEGIN and END closures or functions are not implemented yet, then how do I print a sum of all the list of numbers piped in from other Unix commands?

运行 Groovy 1.8.4，答案如下

du -s * | groovy -a '\s+' -ne 'def begin() {sum = 0}; def end() {println sum}; sum += split[0] as Long'
