Folks,
I am not a programmer - wish that I were at this point. Regexes are the
bane of my existence right now.
I am attempting to update /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions on CentOS and RH
linux boxes with the .cf-before-edit extension. In this way, start-up
scripts like /etc/rc.d/init.d/networks will ignore files with this
extension and NOT consider them valid interface configuration files.
Here's the pertinent excerpt of the file to be modified:
1 is_ignored_file() {
2 case "$1" in
3 *~ | *.bak | *.orig | *.rpmnew | *.rpmorig | *.rpmsave)
4 return 0
5 ;;
6 esac
7 return 1
8 }
9
__sed_discard_ignored_files='/\(~\|\.bak\|\.orig\|\.rpmnew\|\.rpmorig\|\.rpmsave\)$/d'
Using a very simple pattern (probably too simple, see below) and a
replacement works for line 3 . It's line 9 I'm having trouble with. I
haven't been able to get anything to match for it. What I want to do is
add \.cf-before-edit to the end of the string - but I don't seem to be
able to make a match for a replacement.
Could someone help understand how I might put this in the expression of
line 9?
Thanks,
deb
Working code for line 3:
bundle agent test {
files:
"/tmp/fun"
comment => "Add .cf-before-edit to the list of ignore files
functions",
edit_line => tmp_fun;
}
bundle edit_line tmp_fun {
replace_patterns:
"(\.rpmsave\))"
replace_with => value(".rpmsave | *.cf-before-edit)");
}
