Match and Extract everything between 2 words in a file

I had posed a similar topic some time back but I want some additional information from the input file.
The log file is as shown...

its not clear if that is the entire log file or if there is more and you need to continue matching more records. If that is the entire log file then all you really need to do is use the "last" control to break the loop:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. while ($line = <LOGFILE>) {
  2.    if ($line =~ /^\[ERROR\](.*?)infrastructure:ID_UNHANDLED:/) {
  3.       push @message, $line;
  4.    }
  5.    elsif ($line =~ /^nested exception is:/) {
  6.       $line = <LOGFILE>;
  7.       push @message, $line;
  8.       last;
  9.    }
  10. }
  11.

That's not the entire log file. There are many more records like the one I showed that need to be matched. It's just that I want the entire stack to be printed and not just that 1 line.

I was just skimming the post I may be mistaken but it seems you are using a non-greedy match. Were you want a greedy match.
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if ($line =~ /^\[ERROR\](.*?)infrastructure:ID_UNHANDLED:/) {
  2.  
Take out the question mark after the * character.
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if ($line =~ /^\[ERROR\](.*)infrastructure:ID_UNHANDLED:/) {
  2.  
Hope it helps!

No, it doesn't. It returns the same result ...

i.e. it returns just the line that the string matches and not the full stack.

I want it to return the following ...

Hum....

I think your answer lies here?
Apr 10 '09 #6
I changed it to look like this ..
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. while ($line = <LOGFILE>) {
  2.      # chomp $line;
  3.     if ($line =~ /^\[ERROR\](.*?)infrastructure:ID_UNHANDLED: (.*)\[ERROR\]$/ms) {
  4.          push @message, $line;
  5.          $match = 1;
  6.          next;
  7.         }
  8.       }
  9.  
but now it won't return anything at all. Is the RE incorrect?

Please use the code tags, so others can see it better and possibly use it to help you reach a solution. (copy&paste). Just an FYI.

I think one problem may be that "$line" is always filtered in "one line at a time" but you are attempting to capture more than one line at a time, but using push to append an array one line at a time. In other words...

No "single" line matches the criteria. You only check for match each line at a time, replacing the value of $line each iteration. Even if there was a match the multiple lines would have been pushed into message one at a time. Instead of what you want, each message element representing the whole match.

You will have to create a result string or something.
Like:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  
  2. my @message;
  3.  
  4. my $file = <LOGFILE>;
  5.  
  6. while($file =~ /^(\[ERROR\].*?infrastructure:ID_UNHANDLED: .*?)\[ERROR\]$/mgs) {
  7. push(@message, $1);
  8. }
  9.  
Untested though.

But the idea is:
Stream the file in continuously pushing the entire match into @message, one "match" at a time.

I removed the capturing parenthesis around the .'s, and added them around the actual match (without ending [ERROR]) So they would get captured in $1.

You may want to match the actual double \n\n's before the next [ERROR] so the next match is successful.

You DO still want the s and m modifiers. I added a g, for global matches.

I have no Perl on this computer, can't test anything...sorry.

@joeferns79

The main thing to notice in my suggestion was this line:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. my $file = <LOGFILE>;
  2.  
Slurping the whole file into a single var, and then saying...

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. while(match){
  2. push $message, $1;
  3. }
  4.  
In your genreport sub you are still testing for a match "one line at a time".

Using the s modifier allows perl's dot character to match all characters INCLUDING a newline. (which is usually the only thing excluded)

And the m modifier changes ^ and $ to represent the beginning and ending of ANY newline, not necessarily the next one.

I noticed in the LOGFILE the chunks were separated by two newlines. THAT would be a good terminator.

I must admit I did forget about the "holdTerminator". $/
You must undefine that to properly slurp the file.
Slurping


So...

Just change the DATA to your file handle. "LOGFILE".

One word of caution.
When you slurp, don't do anything else with the data. It takes about as long as assembling an array itself. (If not slightly longer) AND if you then copy the slurped file into an array, you'll have TWO copies on disk.

Using it for this should not be a problem, but just be mindful.
Feel free to Benchmark!
It's your friend.


PS- Code tags use square brackets not angle. :)

PPS- What do ya know? There's a mod on CPAN for this!!

I noticed some lines say [ERROR] but you don't want them.
Just add the "infrastructure:RUN_ID_RUNTIME" back into the regexe.

This should do it:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. while($file =~ /^(\[ERROR\].*?infrastructure:RUN_ID_RUNTIME.*?)\n\n/mgs) {
  2. push(@message, $1);
  3. }

That didn't work. :(

But this did.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. while($file =~ /^(\[ERROR\](?-s:.*)infrastructure:ID_UNHANDLED.*?infrastructure:RUN_ID_RUNTIME.*?)\n\n/mgs) {
  2. push(@message, $1);
  3. }
  4.  
Assuming you want only lines that start with [ERROR] followed by any character EXCEPT a newline, followed by "infrastructure:ID_UNHANDLED", followed by any character INCLUDING a newline, followed by "infrastructure:RUN_ID_RUNTIME", followed by any character INCLUDING newlines terminating on 2 newlines.

WHEEEWW!!

OK. That successfully filtered these lines from my test:

[ERROR] Undefined

[ERROR] jnjbg

But MATCHED the ones (I think) you want.

Let me know how it comes out!

Hummm....
How are you calling on genreport?
What exactly do you pass to it?
Is it in the current package, or a separate file?

Very strange.

Have you tried KevinADC's code?
It looks like it works too. (using too objectively..:)

I swear my code worked in Komodo with Perl 5.10 on Windows.

Of course I didn't have the exact same logfile to scan.
Apr 20 '09 #17
I am calling it through a batch file in a command prompt in Windows and pass the name of the log file, i.e.

UAESummary.bat AppLog.txt > Report.log


Yes, I tried KevinADC's code too, to no avail.
