Bash Debug Function
My students working in Linux would have a series of labs to negotiate and I’d have them log the activities of their Oracle SQL scripts. Many of them would suffer quite a bit because they didn’t know how to find the errors in the log files.
I wrote this SQL function for them to put in their .bashrc files. It searches all the .txt files for errors and organizes them by log file, line number, and descriptive error message.
errors () { label="File Name:Line Number:Error Code"; list=`ls ./*.$1 | wc -l`; if [[ ${list} -eq 1 ]]; then echo ${label}; echo "----------------------------------------"; filename=`ls *.txt`; echo ${filename}:`find . -type f | grep -in *.txt -e ora\- -e pls\- -e sp2\-`; else if [[ ${list} -gt 1 ]]; then echo ${label}; echo "----------------------------------------"; find . -type f | grep --color=auto -in *.txt -e ora\- -e pls\- -e sp2\-; fi; fi } |
I hope it helps others now too.
