In a Linux script: I have a file that has two time entries for each message within the file. A 'received time' and a 'source time'. there are hundreds of messages within the file.
I want to calculate the elapsed time between the two times.
2014-07-16T18:40:48Z (received time)
2014-07-16T18:38:27Z (source time)
The source time is 3 lines after the received time, not that it matters.
info on the input data:
The input has a lines are as follows:
TimeStamp: 2014-07-16T18:40:48Z
2 lines later: a bunch of messages in one line and within each line, multiple times is:
sourceTimeStamp="2014-07-16T18:38:27Z"
you should be able to use date
like this (eg)
date +%s --date="2014-07-16T18:40:48Z"
to convert both timestamps into a unix timestamp. Getting the time difference between them is then reduced to a simple subtraction.
Does this help?
If you have GNU's date
(not busybox's), you can give difference in seconds with:
#!/bin/bash
A=$(date -d '2014-07-16T18:40:48Z' '+%s')
B=$(date -d '2014-07-16T18:38:27Z' '+%s')
echo "$(( A - B )) seconds"
For busybox's date
and ash
(modern probably / BusyBox v1.21.0):
#!/bin/ash
A=$(busybox date -d '2014-07-16 18:40:48' '+%s')
B=$(busybox date -d '2014-07-16 18:38:27' '+%s')
echo "$(( A - B )) seconds"
I would use awk
. The following script searches for the lines of interest, converts the time value into a UNIX timestamp and saves them in the start
, end
variables. At the end of the script the difference will get calculated and printed:
timediff.awk :
/received time/ {
"date -d "$1" +%s" | getline end
}
/source time/ {
"date -d "$1" +%s" | getline start
exit
}
END {
printf "%s seconds in between", end - start
}
Execute it like this:
awk -f timediff.awk log.file
Output:
141 seconds in between
