I have the following script
#!/bin/bash
file="path/to/file"
/usr/bin/awk '/chapter:/ {f=0} /chapter: 25/ {f=1} f' $file
how can I use a variable's value instead of 25
?
something like this:
#!/bin/bash
file="path/to/file"
num=25
/usr/bin/awk '/chapter:/ {f=0} /chapter: <num>/ {f=1} f' $file
ps
/usr/bin/awk -vn="$num" '/chapter:/ {f=0} /chapter: n/ {f=1} f' $file
is not working awk
is the fastest one for what I want o do any ideas?
You're on right track here but for the 2nd part of building the regex. You can use:
awk -v n="$num" '/chapter:/{f=0} $0 ~ "chapter: " n {f=1} f' file
You need to build the regex using variable n
and use ~
operator for regex matching.
