#Bash grep string portable#
The portable way is to use the newer syntax, extended regular expressions.

The old, default syntax (basic regular expressions) doesn't support the alternation (|) operator, though some versions have it as an extension, but written with a backslash. Second, grep supports two syntaxes for patterns. If you do need a single quote, you can write it as ''' (end string literal, literal quote, open string literal). Single quotes prevent expansion of anything between them (including backslashes) the only thing you can't do then is have single quotes in the pattern. The easiest way to do that is to put single quotes around it. name : This command will change the working directory to somedir/ : cmd : ls -l | grep log chdir : somedir/ - name : Run a command that uses non-posix shell-isms (in this example /bin/sh doesn't handle redirection and wildcards together but bash does) : cat < /tmp/*txt args : executable : /bin/bash - name : Run a command using a templated variable (always use quote filter to avoid injection) : cat " send "connect host\n" expect "pxeboot.First, you need to protect the pattern from expansion by the shell.
#Bash grep string free#
name : This command will change the working directory to somedir/ and will only run when somedir/somelog.txt doesn't exist : somescript.sh > somelog.txt args : chdir : somedir/ creates : somelog.txt # You can also use the 'cmd' parameter instead of free form format.

name : Execute the command in remote shell stdout goes to the specified file on the remote : somescript.sh > somelog.txt - name : Change the working directory to somedir/ before executing the command : somescript.sh > somelog.txt args : chdir : somedir/ # You can also use the 'args' form to provide the options.
