It's like a +stripped-down Perl, perfect for text-processing tasks and other scripting +needs. It has a C-like syntax, but without semicolons, manual memory +management, or static typing. It excels at text processing. You can call to it +from a shell script, or you can use it as a stand-alone scripting language. + +Why use AWK instead of Perl? Mostly because AWK is part of UNIX. You can always +count on it, whereas Perl's future is in question. AWK is also easier to read +than Perl. For simple text-processing scripts, particularly ones that read +files line by line and split on delimiters, AWK is probably the right tool for +the job. + +```awk +#!/usr/bin/awk -f + +# Comments are like this + +# AWK programs consist of a collection of patterns and actions.

Everything is global. For short scripts, this is fine, even + # useful, but for longer scripts, this can be a problem. + + # There is a work-around (ahem, hack). Function arguments are local to the + # function, and AWK allows you to define more function arguments than it + # needs. So just stick local variable in the function declaration, like I + # did above. As a convention, stick in some extra whitespace to distinguish + # between actual function parameters and local variables.

You can close it: + close("/tmp/foobar.txt") + + # Here's how you run something in the shell + system("echo foobar") # => prints foobar + + # Reads a line from standard input and stores in localvar + getline localvar + + # Reads a line from a pipe + "echo foobar" | getline localvar # localvar => "foobar" + close("echo foobar") + + # Reads a line from a file and stores in localvar + getline localvar <"/tmp/foobar.txt" + close("/tmp/foobar.txt") +} + +# As I said at the beginning, AWK programs consist of a collection of patterns +# and actions. You've already seen the all-important BEGIN pattern. Other +# patterns are used only if you're processing lines from files or standard +# input. +# +# When you pass arguments to AWK, they are treated as file names to process. +# It will process them all, in order. Think of it like an implicit for loop, +# iterating over the lines in these files. these patterns and actions are like +# switch statements inside the loop. + +/^fo+bar$/ { + + # This action will execute for every line that matches the regular + # expression, /^fo+bar$/, and will be skipped for any line that fails to + # match it. Let's just print the line: + + print + + # Whoa, no argument! That's because print has a default argument: $0. + # $0 is the name of the current line being processed. It is created + # automatically for you. + + # You can probably guess there are other $ variables. Every line is + # implicitely split before every action is called, much like the shell + # does. And, like the shell, each field can be access with a dollar sign + + # This will print the second and fourth fields in the line + print $2, $4 + + # AWK automatically defines many other variables to help you inspect and + # process each line. The most important one is NF + + # Prints the number of fields on this line + print NF + + # Print the last field on this line + print $NF +} + +# Every pattern is actually a true/false test. The regular expression in the +# last pattern is also a true/false test, but part of it was hidden. If you +# don't give it a string to test, it will assume $0, the line that it's +# currently processing. Thus, the complete version of it is this: + +$0 ~ /^fo+bar$/ { + print "Equivalent to the last pattern" +} + +a > 0 { + # This will execute once for each line, as long as a is positive +} + +# You get the idea. Processing text files, reading in a line at a time, and +# doing something with it, particularly splitting on a delimiter, is so common +# in UNIX that AWK is a scripting language that does all of it for you, without +# you needing to ask. All you have to do is write the patterns and actions +# based on what you expect of the input, and what you want to do with it. + +# Here's a quick example of a simple script, the sort of thing AWK is perfect +# for. It will read a name from standard input and then will print the average +# age of everyone with that first name. Let's say you supply as an argument the +# name of a this data file: +# +# Bob Jones 32 +# Jane Doe 22 +# Steve Stevens 83 +# Bob Smith 29 +# Bob Barker 72 +# +# Here's the script: + +BEGIN { + + # First, ask the user for the name + print "What name would you like the average age for?" + + # Get a line from standard input, not from files on the command line + getline name <"/dev/stdin" +} + +# Now, match every line whose first field is the given name +$1 == name { + + # Inside here, we have access to a number of useful variables, already + # pre-loaded for us: + # $0 is the entire line + # $3 is the third field, the age, which is what we're interested in here + # NF is the number of fields, which should be 3 + # NR is the number of records (lines) seen so far + # FILENAME is the name of the file being processed + # FS is the field separator being used, which is " " here + # ...etc. There are plenty more, documented in the man page. + + # Keep track of a running total and how many lines matched + sum += $3 + nlines++ +} + +# Another special pattern is called END. It will run after processing all the +# text files. Unlike BEGIN, it will only run if you've given it input to +# process. It will run after all the files have been read and processed +# according to the rules and actions you've provided. The purpose of it is +# usually to output some kind of final report, or do something with the +# aggregate of the data you've accumulated over the course of the script. + +END { + if (nlines) + print "The average age for " name " is " sum / nlines +} + +``` +Further Reading: + +* [Awk tutorial](http://www.grymoire.com/Unix/Awk.html) +* [Awk man page](https://linux.die.net/man/1/awk) +* [The GNU Awk User's Guide](https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/gawk.html) GNU Awk is found on most Linux systems. -- cgit v1.2.3
