From: Thorsten Hofrichter on 23 Jun 2010 14:09 I need some help trying to find an easy way to do this. Can use either sed/awk/perl , dont really care. : I have a file with some data in it , Lets call it abc.txt Then I have another file ( XML format ) , and would like to find a pattern and insert abc.txt in it . For example : abc.txt contains : <abc>This is a test</abc> original.xml : <properties> <abc>This is 1</abc> <abc>This is 2</abc> </properties> I want to insert abc.txt somewhere in the properties. I want the result to be this.. ( I dont care if it is first, second , or last entry ) : <properties> <abc>This is a test</abc> <abc>This is 1</abc> <abc>This is 2</abc> </properties> Any help would be great. Thanks

Thanks Hmm... - I hope there's no hidden requirements; given a fixed and well formatted data like the above, this sounds not too complicated. awk ' NR==FNR { x=$0 ; next } f { print " "x ; f=0 } /<properties>/ {f=1} { print } ' abc.txt original.xml Or if the file abc.txt contains more than one line, one possibility is awk ' NR==FNR { n=NR ; x[n]=$0 ; next } f { for(i=1; i<=n; i++) print " "x[i] ; f=0 } /<properties>/ {f=1} { print } ' abc.txt original.xml Janis

The only issue is that I multiple <properties> in the file. I should have mentioned that . I oversimplified my example. How do I make it add it only for the first <properties> it finds. So start file looks like <properties> <abc>This is 1</abc> <abc>This is 2</abc> </properties> <properties> <def>Line 1</def> <def>Line 2</def> </properties>

Got a solution to this ... THANKS a ton. I was able to modify it to add the logic to only do this for the first occurance. I learned a lot from the NR=FNR line. Never done that before. Way cool. |
