Issue
I have a file containing TABLE schema.table and want to put strings around it to make a command like MARK string REJECT
the file contains many lines TABLE SCHEMA.MYTAB, etc. etc....
or
TABLE SCHEMA.MYTAB , etc. etc....
The result is
MARK SCHEMA.MYTAB REJECT ..etc
I have
grep TABLE dirx/myfile.txt | awk -F, '{print $1}' | awk '{print $2}' | sed -e 's/^/MARK /' |sed -e 's/$/ REJECT/'
It works, but can this be tidier? I think I can combine the awk and sed into single commands but not sure how.
Solution
Maybe:
awk '/^TABLE/ {gsub(/,.*$/, ""); print "MARK " $2 " REJECT"}' dirx/myfile.txt
