Hello Guys,
More Perl Style lessons for me, if anyone wants to chip in. Following
is the script on the chopping block today - in the comments the parts
that I did not manage to "elegantize" as much as I wanted.
use Term::ANSIColor qw(:constants);
use strict;
#----------------CONFIGURATION--------
my $timelen = 3;
my @commands = ( '/bin/netstat -ape | /usr/bin/wc -l',
'/usr/bin/lsof | wc -l',
'/bin/ps ax -L | wc -l' );
my @triggers = qw( 0 0 0);
#-------------------------------------
for(my $flag = 1; $flag;) #hate truth as a number...
{
my $date = `/bin/date -R`; #three lines seem much for this - any more
elegant way to chomp things up?
chomp $date;
print $date."\t\t";
for (my $i = 0; $i < @commands; $i++)
{
my $cmd = $commands[$i]; #I don't like these lookups, but I don't
see how to foreach this one
my $trig = $triggers[$i];
my $result = `$cmd` or die ("could not execute command".$cmd."\n");
chomp $result;
$result == $trig ? print ON_RED, $result, RESET : print $result;
print "\t";
$flag = 0 if ($result == $trig); # finish the internal round,
terminate the external. Any nicer way to do it ?
}
print "\n";
}
Hum - the mail client is insisting in wrapping at 80-chars - usually
nice but very appropriate to mess up things here :D
best - Federico
