# Bash-Oneliner
Hi bash learners and bioinformaticans, welcome to Bash Oneliner. I started studying bioinformatics data four years ago (recently started working on cloud computing), and was amazed by those single-word bash commands which are much faster than my dull scripts, so much time can be saved through knowing command-line shortcuts and scripting. Not all the code here is oneliner (if the ';' counts..), but i put effort on making them brief and fast. I am mainly using Ubuntu, RedHat and Linux Mint, sorry if the commands dont work on your system.
This blog will focus on simple bash commands for parsing data, most of which are for tsv files (tab-separated values); some of them are for Linux system maintenance. I apologize that there won't be any citation for the codes, but they are probably from dear Google and Stackoverflow.
English and bash are not my first language, so... correct me anytime, thank you!
And if you know any cool command that are not included here, Please Teach Me.
In case you would like to check and vote up my questions on Stackoverflow, here's my page:

```
##### Extract text bewteen words (e.g. w1,w2)
```bash
grep -o -P '(?<=w1).*(?=w2)'
```
##### Grep only integer
```bash
grep -o '[0-9]*'
```
##### Grep lines without word (e.g. bbo)
```bash
grep -v bbo filename
```
##### Grep lines not begin with string (e.g. #)
```bash
grep -v '^#' file.txt
```
##### Grep variables with space within it (e.g. bbo="some strings")
```bash
grep "$boo" filename
```
#remember to quote the variable!
##### 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

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()

```
##### Sort a row (e.g. 1 40 35 12 23 --> 1 12 23 35 40)
```bash
awk ' {split( $0, a, "\t" ); asort( a ); for( i = 1; i <= length(a); i++ ) printf( "%s\t", a[i] ); printf( "\n" ); }'
```
##### Subtract previous row values (add column6 which equal to column4 minus last column5)
```bash
awk '{$6 = $4 - prev5; prev5 = $5; print;}'
```
## Xargs
[[back to top](#handy-bash-oneliner-commands-for-tsv-file-editing)]

```
##### Display 3 items per line
```bash
echo 1 2 3 4 5 6| xargs -n 3
# 1 2 3
# 4 5 6
```
##### Prompt before execution

echo a b c |xargs -p -n 3
```
##### Print command along with output
```bash
xargs -t abcd
# bin/echo abcd
# abcd
```
##### With find and rm
```bash
find . -name "*.html"|xargs rm -rf
```
##### Delete fiels with whitespace in filename (e.g. "hello 2001")

find . -name "*.bak" -print 0|xargs -0 -I file mv file ~/old
```
##### Move first 100th files to a directory (e.g. d1)
```bash
ls |head -100|xargs -I {} mv {} d1
```
##### Parallel
```bash
time echo {1..5} |xargs -n 1 -P 5 sleep
```
a lot faster than
```bash
time echo {1..5} |xargs -n1 sleep
```
##### Copy all files from A to B
```bash
find /dir/to/A -type f -name "*.py" -print 0| xargs -0 -r -I file cp -v -p file --target-directory=/path/to/B
# v: verbose|
# p: keep detail (e.g. owner)
```
##### With sed
```bash
ls |xargs -n1 -I file sed -i '/^Pos/d' filename
```
##### Add the file name to the first line of file

ls |sed 's/.txt//g'|xargs -n1 -I file sed -i -e '1 i\>file\' file.txt
```
##### Count all files
```bash
ls |xargs -n1 wc -l
```
##### Turn output into a single line
```bash
ls -l| xargs
```
##### Count files within directories
```bash
echo mso{1..8}|xargs -n1 bash -c 'echo -n "$1:"; ls -la "$1"| grep -w 74 |wc -l' --
# "--" signals the end of options and display further option processing
```
##### Download dependencies files and install (e.g. requirements.txt)
```bash
cat requirements.txt| xargs -n1 sudo pip install
```
##### Count lines in all file, also count total lines
```bash
ls|xargs wc -l
```
##### Xargs and grep
```bash
cat grep_list |xargs -I{} grep {} filename
```
##### Xargs and sed (replace all old ip address with new ip address under /etc directory)
```bash
grep -rl '192.168.1.111' /etc | xargs sed -i 's/192.168.1.111/192.168.2.111/g'
```

```bash
i=0; while read a b c; do ((i+=$c-$b)); echo $i; done < <(head filename)
```
##### While loop, keep checking a running process (e.g. perl) and start another new process (e.g. python) immetiately after it. (BETTER use the wait command! Ctrl+F 'wait')
```bash
while [[ $(pidof perl) ]];do echo f;sleep 10;done && python timetorunpython.py
```
##### If loop

if (($j==$u+2))
#(( )) use for arithmetic operation

{var/a/,}
```
##### replace all (e.g. replace all 'a' with ',')
```bash
{var//a/,}
```
```bash
#with grep
test="god the father"
grep ${test// /\\\|} file.txt
# turning the space into 'or' (\|) in grep
```

expr 10\*20 #600
expr 30 \> 20 #1 (true)
```
##### More math with bc
