# Bash-Oneliner
Hi bash learners and bioinformaticans, welcome to Bash Oneliner learning station. I started studying bioinformatics data three years ago, and I was amazed by those single-word bash commands which are much faster than my dull scripts, so i started bash. Not all the code here is oneliner (if the ';' counts..), but i put effort on making them brief and fast. 

This blog will focus on bash commands for parsing biological data for dummies like me, most of which are tsv files (tab-separated values); some of them are for Ubuntu system maintaining (for dummies). I have been recording the bash commands on my notebook, but putting them on web will help others and myself to query. I apologize that there won't be any citation for the codes, coz i haven't make any record of it, but they are probably from dear Google and Stackoverflow.

English and bash are not my first language, so... correct me anytime, thank you

##Grep
#####extract text bewteen words (e.g. w1,w2)
    
```bash
grep -o -P '(?<=w1).*(?=w2)'
```

#####grep lines without word (e.g. bbo)
     
```bash
grep -v bbo filename
```

#####grep only one/first match (e.g. bbo)

```bash
grep -m 1 bbo filename
```

#####grep and count (e.g. bbo)
    
```bash
grep -c bbo filename
```

#####insensitive grep (e.g. bbo/BBO/Bbo)
    
```bash
grep -i "bbo" filename 
```

#####count occurrence (e.g. three times a line count three times)
    
```bash
grep -o bbo filename 
```

#####COLOR the match (e.g. bbo)!
    
```bash
grep --color bbo filename 
```

#####grep search all files in a directory(e.g. bbo)
    
```bash
grep -R bbo /path/to/directory 
```

or
    
```bash
grep -r bbo /path/to/directory 
```
#####search all files in directory, only output file names with matches(e.g. bbo)
    
```bash
grep -Rh bbo /path/to/directory 
```
or
```bash    
grep -rh bbo /path/to/directory 
```

#####grep OR (e.g. A or B or C or D)
    
```
grep 'A\|B\|C\|D' 
```

#####grep AND (e.g. A and B)
    
```bash
grep 'A.*B' 
```

#####grep all content of a fileA from fileB
    
```bash
grep -f fileA fileB 
```

#####grep a tab
    
```bash
grep $'\t' 
```

#####grep variable from variable
```bash
$echo "$long_str"|grep -q "$short_str"
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo 'found'; fi
```
//grep -q will output 0 if match found
//remember to add space between []!

#####grep strings between a bracket()
```bash
grep -oP '\(\K[^\)]+'
```

#####grep number of characters with known strings in between(e.g. AAEL000001-RA)
```bash
grep -o -w "\w\{10\}\-R\w\{1\}"
```
// \w word character [0-9a-zA-Z_] \W not word character

```bash
sed "/bbo/d" filename
```

#####edit infile (edit and save)
    
```bash
sed -i "/bbo/d" filename
```
#####when using variable (e.g. $i), use double quotes " "
e.g. add >$i to the first line (to make a FASTA file)

sed "1i >$i"  
```
//notice the double quotes! in other examples, you can use a single quote, but here, no way!

```
#####add extension of filename to last column

```bash
for i in T000086_1.02.n T000086_1.02.p;do sed "s/$/\t${i/*./}/" $i;done >T000086_1.02.np
