I have created small bash script which finds the unused images(*.jpg and *.png) in iOS project. And here is the code for the same.
//For removing space and replace '\n' in file and folder names
`IFS=$'\n'`
//Find all files with extension *.png and *.jpg
`for i in `find . -name "*.png" -o -name "*.jpg"``; do`
//Get the base name of found file
file=``basename -s .jpg "$i" | xargs basename -s .png``
//Replace "\n" with original space so that ack can search exact file name in all files
filenameWithSpace="${file//$'\n'/ }"
//Merge both basename and extension for ack command
//Add this "</dev/null" to ack command for it to work on jenkins setup
`extension="${i##*.}"`
`filename="$filenameWithSpace.$extension"`
result=`ack -i --ignore-file=match:/.\.pbxproj/ "$filename" </dev/null`
//result=ack -i "$filename" </dev/null
//If result is NULL then ack did not find any occurrence of the filename in any file
`if [ -z "$result" ];`
`then `
`echo "$i" `
`fi `
`done`
Should ".pbxproj" be included in my search? I ask this question since including and excluding ".pbxproj" provides me different results.
Thanks in advance.
Don't include the .pbxproj. It will have the image references.
FYI : http://jeffhodnett.github.io/Unused/ to find the unused images.

I want to remove an entire line of text from all files in a given directory. I know I can use grep -v foo filename to do this one file at a time. And I know I can use grep -r foo to search recursively through a directory. How do I combine these commands to remove a given line of text from all files in a directory?
The UNIX command to find files is named find, not grep. Forget you ever heard of grep -r as it's just a bad idea, here's the right way to find files and perform some action on them:
find . -type f -print | xargs sed -i '/badline/d'
Try something like:
grep -vlre 'foo' . | xargs sed -i 's/pattern/replacement/g'
Broken down:
grep:
-v 'Inverse match'
-l 'Show filename'
-r 'Search recursively'
-e 'Extended pattern search'
xargs: For each entry perform
sed -i: replace inline
I think this would work:
grep -ilre 'Foo' . | xargs sed -i 'extension' 'Foo/d'
Where 'extension' refers to the addition to the file name. It will make a copy of the original file with the extension you designated and the modified file will have the original filename. I added -i in case you require it to be case insensitive.
modified file1 becomes "file1"
original file1 becomes "file1extension"
invalid command code ., despite escaping periods, using sed
One of the responses suggests that the newer version of sed's -i option in OSX is slightly different so you need to add an extension. The file is being interpreted as a command, which is why you are seeing that error.
I am in the process of creating a script that lists all files opened via lsof output. I would like to checksum specific files and ignore directories from that output but am at a loss to do so EFFECTIVELY. For example: (I'm using FreeBSD btw)
lsof | awk '/\//{print $9}' | sort -u | head -n 5
prints:
/
/bin/sleep
/dev/bpf
What I'd like to do is: FROM that output, ignore any directories and perform an md5 on FILES (not directories).
Any pointers?
Give a try to following perl command:
lsof | perl -MDigest::MD5=md5_hex -ane '
$f = $F[ $#F ];
-f $f and printf qq|%s %s\n|, $f, md5_hex( $f )
'
It filters lsof output to plain files (-f). Take a look into perlfunc to change it to add different kind of files.
It outputs each file and its md5 separated by a space character. An example in my system is like:
/usr/lib/libm-2.17.so a2d3b2de9a1f59fb99427714fefb49ca
/usr/lib/libdl-2.17.so d74d8ac16c2d13128964353d4be7061a

I am trying to use a shell script (well a "one liner") to find any common lines between around 50 files.
Edit: Note I am looking for a line (lines) that appears in all the files
So far i've tried grep grep -v -x -f file1.sp * which just matches that files contents across ALL the other files.
I've also tried grep -v -x -f file1.sp file2.sp | grep -v -x -f - file3.sp | grep -v -x -f - file4.sp | grep -v -x -f - file5.sp etc... but I believe that searches using the files to be searched as STD in not the pattern to match on.
Does anyone know how to do this with grep or another tool?
I don't mind if it takes a while to run, I've got to add a few lines of code to around 500 files and wanted to find a common line in each of them for it to insert 'after' (they were originally just c&p from one file so hopefully there are some common lines!)
Thanks for your time,
When I first read this I thought you were trying to find 'any common lines'. I took this as meaning "find duplicate lines". If this is the case, the following should suffice:
sort *.sp | uniq -d
Upon re-reading your question, it seems that you are actually trying to find lines that 'appear in all the files'. If this is the case, you will need to know the number of files in your directory:
find . -type f -name "*.sp" | wc -l
If this returns the number 50, you can then use awk like this:
WHINY_USERS=1 awk '{ array[$0]++ } END { for (i in array) if (array[i] == 50) print i }' *.sp
You can consolidate this process and write a one-liner like this:
WHINY_USERS=1 awk -v find=$(find . -type f -name "*.sp" | wc -l) '{ array[$0]++ } END { for (i in array) if (array[i] == find) print i }' *.sp
old, bash answer (O(n); opens 2 * n files)
From #mjgpy3 answer, you just have to make a for loop and use comm, like this:
#!/bin/bash
tmp1="/tmp/tmp1$RANDOM"
tmp2="/tmp/tmp2$RANDOM"
cp "$1" "$tmp1"
shift
for file in "$#"
do
comm -1 -2 "$tmp1" "$file" > "$tmp2"
mv "$tmp2" "$tmp1"
done
cat "$tmp1"
rm "$tmp1"
Save in a comm.sh, make it executable, and call
./comm.sh *.sp
assuming all your filenames end with .sp.
Updated answer, python, opens only each file once
Looking at the other answers, I wanted to give one that opens once each file without using any temporary file, and supports duplicated lines. Additionally, let's process the files in parallel.
Here you go (in python3):
#!/bin/env python
import argparse
import sys
import multiprocessing
import os
EOLS = {'native': os.linesep.encode('ascii'), 'unix': b'\n', 'windows': b'\r\n'}
def extract_set(filename):
with open(filename, 'rb') as f:
return set(line.rstrip(b'\r\n') for line in f)
def find_common_lines(filenames):
pool = multiprocessing.Pool()
line_sets = pool.map(extract_set, filenames)
return set.intersection(*line_sets)
if __name__ == '__main__':
# usage info and argument parsing
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument("in_files", nargs='+',
help="find common lines in these files")
parser.add_argument('--out', type=argparse.FileType('wb'),
help="the output file (default stdout)")
parser.add_argument('--eol-style', choices=EOLS.keys(), default='native',
help="(default: native)")
args = parser.parse_args()
# actual stuff
common_lines = find_common_lines(args.in_files)
# write results to output
to_print = EOLS[args.eol_style].join(common_lines)
if args.out is None:
# find out stdout's encoding, utf-8 if absent
encoding = sys.stdout.encoding or 'utf-8'
sys.stdout.write(to_print.decode(encoding))
else:
args.out.write(to_print)
Save it into a find_common_lines.py, and call
python ./find_common_lines.py *.sp
More usage info with the --help option.
Combining this two answers (ans1 and ans2) I think you can get the result you are needing without sorting the files:
#!/bin/bash
ans="matching_lines"
for file1 in *
do
for file2 in *
do
if [ "$file1" != "$ans" ] && [ "$file2" != "$ans" ] && [ "$file1" != "$file2" ] ; then
echo "Comparing: $file1 $file2 ..." >> $ans
perl -ne 'print if ($seen{$_} .= #ARGV) =~ /10$/' $file1 $file2 >> $ans
fi
done
done
Simply save it, give it execution rights (chmod +x compareFiles.sh) and run it. It will take all the files present in the current working directory and will make an all-vs-all comparison leaving in the "matching_lines" file the result.
Things to be improved:
Skip directories
Avoid comparing all the files two times (file1 vs file2 and file2 vs file1).
Maybe add the line number next to the matching string
Hope this helps.
Best,

See this answer. I originally though a diff sounded like what you were asking for, but this answer seems much more appropriate.
I'm grepping through a large pile of code managed by git, and whenever I do a grep, I see piles and piles of messages of the form:
> grep pattern * -R -n
whatever/.git/svn: No such file or directory
Is there any way I can make those lines go away?
You can use the -s or --no-messages flag to suppress errors.
-s, --no-messages suppress error messages
grep pattern * -s -R -n
If you are grepping through a git repository, I'd recommend you use git grep. You don't need to pass in -R or the path.
git grep pattern
That will show all matches from your current directory down.
Errors like that are usually sent to the "standard error" stream, which you can pipe to a file or just make disappear on most commands:
grep pattern * -R -n 2>/dev/null
I have seen that happening several times, with broken links (symlinks that point to files that do not exist), grep tries to search on the target file, which does not exist (hence the correct and accurate error message).
I normally don't bother while doing sysadmin tasks over the console, but from within scripts I do look for text files with "find", and then grep each one:
find /etc -type f -exec grep -nHi -e "widehat" {} \;
Instead of:
grep -nRHi -e "widehat" /etc
I usually don't let grep do the recursion itself. There are usually a few directories you want to skip (.git, .svn...)
You can do clever aliases with stances like that one:
find . \( -name .svn -o -name .git \) -prune -o -type f -exec grep -Hn pattern {} \;
It may seem overkill at first glance, but when you need to filter out some patterns it is quite handy.
Have you tried the -0 option in xargs? Something like this:
ls -r1 | xargs -0 grep 'some text'
Use -I in grep.
Example: grep SEARCH_ME -Irs ~/logs.
I redirect stderr to stdout and then use grep's invert-match (-v) to exclude the warning/error string that I want to hide:
grep -r <pattern> * 2>&1 | grep -v "No such file or directory"
I was getting lots of these errors running "M-x rgrep" from Emacs on Windows with /Git/usr/bin in my PATH. Apparently in that case, M-x rgrep uses "NUL" (the Windows null device) rather than "/dev/null". I fixed the issue by adding this to .emacs:
;; Prevent issues with the Windows null device (NUL)
;; when using cygwin find with rgrep.
(defadvice grep-compute-defaults (around grep-compute-defaults-advice-null-device)
"Use cygwin's /dev/null as the null-device."
(let ((null-device "/dev/null"))
ad-do-it))
(ad-activate 'grep-compute-defaults)
One easy way to make grep return zero status all the time is to use || true
→ echo "Hello" | grep "This won't be found" || true
→ echo $?
0
As you can see the output value here is 0 (Success)
I don't recall when the recursive search '-R' command line switch was introduced in grep, but now I can't imagine life without it.
Its only problem is that if any directory in the recursion doesn't have a match for the filename wildcard, grep -R will stop and will fail to report the directories and files that do produce positive search results.
For example:
grep -R skeleton_app *.xml
Will report only
AndroidManifest.xml: <application android:label="#string/skeleton_app">
While:
grep -R skeleton_app *
Will report all:
AndroidManifest.xml: <application android:label="#string/skeleton_app">
Binary file bin/classes.dex matches
Binary file bin/com/example/android/skeletonapp/R$string.class matches
gen/com/example/android/skeletonapp/R.java: public static final int skeleton_app=0x7f050000;
res/values/strings.xml: <string name="skeleton_app">Understanding Intents</string>
My question: Is there a way to tell 'grep -R' not to stop on filename mismatch?
Try:
grep -R --include '*.xml' skeleton_app .
Use find in addition to grep.
$ find ./ -name "*.txp" -exec grep "string" '{}' \; -print
