sketchtool CLI with fish shell - config

I tried for a while to get the fish shell equivalent for the sketch cli initialization commands. Can anyone help?
For fish it the first line seems to work if you remove the '$' character. Second line for the argument passing I've tried removing the $, the quotes, & several different formats. Couldn't find documentation for argument passing initialization in fish.
#!/bin/sh
SKETCH=$(mdfind kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier == 'com.bohemiancoding.sketch3' | head -n 1)
# pass on all given arguments
"$SKETCH/Contents/Resources/sketchtool/bin/sketchtool" "$#"
reference: https://developer.sketch.com/cli/

Try:
set SKETCH (mdfind kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier == 'com.bohemiancoding.sketch3' | head -n 1)
$SKETCH/Contents/Resources/sketchtool/bin/sketchtool $argv

Running command in perl6, commands that work in shell produce failure when run inside perl6

I'm trying to run a series of shell commands with Perl6 to the variable $cmd, which look like
databricks jobs run-now --job-id 35 --notebook-params '{"directory": "s3://bucket", "output": "s3://bucket/extension", "sampleID_to_canonical_id_map": "s3://somefile.csv"}'
Splitting the command by everything after notebook-params
my $cmd0 = 'databricks jobs run-now --job-id 35 --notebook-params ';
my $args = "'{\"directory\": \"$in-dir\", \"output\": \"$out-dir\",
\"sampleID_to_canonical_id_map\": \"$map\"}'"; my $run = run $cmd0,
$args, :err, :out;
Fails. No answer given either by Databricks or the shell. Stdout and stderr are empty.
Splitting the entire command by white space
my #cmd = $cmd.split(/\s+/);
my $run = run $cmd, :err, :out
Error: Got unexpected extra arguments ("s3://bucket", "output":
"s3://bucket/extension",
"sampleID_to_canonical_id_map":
"s3://somefile.csv"}'
Submitting the command as a string
my $cmd = "$cmd0\"$in-dir\", \"output\": \"$out-dir\", \"sampleID_to_canonical_id_map\": \"$map\"}'";
again, stdout and stderr are empty. Exit code 1.
this is something about how run can only accept arrays, and not strings (I'm curious why)
If I copy and paste the command that was given to Perl6's run, it works when given from the shell. It doesn't work when given through perl6. This isn't good, because I have to execute this command hundreds of times.
Perhaps Perl6's shell https://docs.perl6.org/routine/shell would be better? I didn't use that, because the manual suggests that run is safer. I want to capture both stdout and stderr inside a Proc class
EDIT: I've gotten this running with shell but have encountered other problems not related to what I originally posted. I'm not sure if this qualifies as being answered then. I just decided to use backticks with perl5. Yes, backticks are deprecated, but they get the job done.
I'm trying to run a series of shell commands
To run shell commands, call the shell routine. It passes the positional argument you provide it, coerced to a single string, to the shell of the system you're running the P6 program on.
For running commands without involving a shell, call the run routine. The first positional argument is coerced to a string and passed to the operating system as the filename of the program you want run. The remaining arguments are concatenated together with a space in between each argument to form a single string that is passed as a command line to the program being run.
my $cmd0 = 'databricks jobs run-now --job-id 35 --notebook-params ';
That's wrong for both shell and run:
shell only accepts one argument and $cmd0 is incomplete.
The first argument for run is a string interpreted by the OS as the filename of a program to be run and $cmd0 isn't a filename.
So in both cases you'll get either no result or nonsense results.
Your other two experiments are also invalid in their own ways as you discovered.
this is something about how run can only accept arrays, and not strings (I'm curious why)
run can accept a single argument. It would be passed to the OS as the name of the program to be run.
It can accept two arguments. The first would be the program name, the second the command line passed to the program.
It can accept three or more arguments. The first would be the program name, the rest would be concatenated to form the command line passed to the program. (There are cases where this is more convenient coding wise than the two argument form.)
run can also accept a single array. The first element would the program name and the rest the command line passed to it. (There are cases where this is more convenient.)
I just decided to use backticks with perl5. Yes, backticks are deprecated, but they get the job done.
Backticks are subject to code injection and shell interpolation attacks and errors. But yes, if they work, they work.
P6 has direct equivalents of most P5 features. This includes backticks. P6 has two variants:
The safer P6 alternative to backticks is qx. The qx quoting construct calls the shell but does not interpolate P6 variables so it has the same sort of level of danger as using shell with a single quoted string.
The qqx variant is the direct equivalent of P5 backticks or using shell with a double quoted string so it suffers from the same security dangers.
Two mistakes:
the simplistic split cuts up the last, single parameter into multiple arguments
you are passing $cmd to run, not #cmd
use strict;
my #cmd = ('/tmp/dummy.sh', '--param1', 'param2 with spaces');
my $run = run #cmd, :err, :out;
print(#cmd ~ "\n");
print("EXIT_CODE:\t" ~ $run.exitcode ~ "\n");
print("STDOUT:\t" ~ $run.out.slurp ~ "\n");
print("STDERR:\t" ~ $run.err.slurp ~ "\n");
output:
$ cat /tmp/dummy.sh
#!/bin/bash
echo "prog: '$0'"
echo "arg1: '$1'"
echo "arg2: '$2'"
exit 0
$ perl6 dummy.pl
/tmp/dummy.sh --param1 param2 with spaces
EXIT_CODE: 0
STDOUT: prog: '/tmp/dummy.sh'
arg1: '--param1'
arg2: 'param2 with spaces'
STDERR:
If you can avoid generating $cmd as single string, I would generate it into #cmd directly. Otherwise you'll have to implement complex split operation that handles quoting.

Powershell piping to variable and write-host at the same time

Hello all and thanks for your time in advance;
I'm running into a slight issue.
I'm running a command and piping it into a variable so i can manipulate the output.
$variable = some command
this normally works fine but doesn't output what's happening to the screen, which is fine most of the time. However occasionally this command requires some user input (like yes or no or skip for example), and since it's not actually piping anything to the command window, it just sits there hanging instead of prompting the user. If you know what to expect you can hit y or n or s and it'll proceed normally.
Is there anyway to run the command so that the output is piped to a variable AND appears on screen? I've already tried:
($variable = some command)
I've also tried:
write-host ($variable = some command)
But neither work. Note that the command running isn't a native windows or shell command and I cannot just run it twice in a row.
To clarify (because i probably wasn't clear)
I've also tried :
$variable = some command : Out-host
and
$variable = some command | out-default
with all their parameters, But the "prompt" from the command (to write y, n, s) doesn't show up.
Being able to pass S automatically would also be acceptable.
Sounds like you need Tee-Object. Example:
some command | Tee-Object -Variable MyVariable
This should pass everything from the command down the pipe, as well as store all output from the command in the $MyVariable variable for you.
You need to give some specific example that doesn't work. I tried this and it works:
function test { $c = read-host "Say something"; $c }
$x = test
I still see "Say something". read-host does not output to standard output so your problem is surprising. Even this works:
read-host "Say something" *> out
=== EDIT ===
Since this is interaction with cmd.exe you have two options AFAIK. First, test command:
test.cmd
#echo off
set /p something="Say something: "
echo %something%
This doesn't work as you said: $x= ./test.cmd
To make it work:
a) Replace above command with: "Say something:"; $x= ./test.cmd. This is obviously not ideal in general scenario as you might not know in advance what the *.cmd will ask. But when you do know its very easy.
b) Try this:
Start-transcript test_out;
./test.cmd;
Stop-transcript;
gc .\test_out | sls 'test.cmd' -Context 0,1 | select -Last 1 | set y
rm test_out
$z = ($y -split "`n").Trim()
After this $z variable contains: Say something: something. This could be good general solution that you could convert to function:
$z = Get-CmdOutput test.cmd
Details of text parsing might be slightly different in general case - I assumed here that only 1 question is asked and answer is on the same line but in any case with some work you will be able to get everything cmd.exe script outputed in general case:
=== EDIT 2 ===
This might be a better general extraction:
$a = gi test_out; rm test_out
$z = $a | select -Index 14,($a.count-5)
$z
$variable = ""
some command | % {$variable += $_;"$_"}
This executes the command, and each line of output is both added to $variable and printed to the console.

Until a specific substring

I need a batch command to return everything until after a certain substring.
What I mean, is when I have a string like this: "Hi! How are you doing? I don't care!!!!!" I can execute a command that gives me everything until after "?".
I looked around the web and didn't find anything that I wanted. I found one method that took everything until after a substring and changed it:
set name=123456789
set blablabla=%name:*5=5%
This returns "56789" to the variable blablabla. The strings in my program are not going to be specific, so this won't work.
Thank you for any help!
Use sed and regular expressions:
$ string1='Hello my name is Foobar? What do I care!'
$ string2=$(echo $string1 | sed 's/^.*\? //')
$ echo $string2
What do I care!
I have not understood your requirements fully. But I think PowerShell is a better option for this. However, you can use following script to get all characters upto given delimiter.
#echo off
set delim=%1
set input=%2
for /f "delims=%upto%" %%i in ("%input%") do (
echo %i
goto :eof
)
Sample run command:
stringupto.bat 5 123456789
Output:
1234

How to store a command output in OpenVMS

Im having an issue writing a DCL in OpenVMS in that I need the DCL to call a command and capture its output (but not output the output to the screen) Later on in the DCL I then need to print that output I stored.
Heres an example:
ICE SET FASTER !This command sets my environment to the "Faster" environment.
The above command outputs this if executed directly in OpenVMS:
Initialising TEST Environment to FASTER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using Test Search rules FASTER
Using Test Search rules FASTER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
dcl>
So I created a DCL in an attempt to wrap this output in order to display a more simplified output. Heres my code so far:
!************************************************************************
$ !* Wrapper for setting ICE account. Outputs Environment
$ !************************************************************************
$ on error then goto ABORT_PROCESS
$ICE_DCL_MAIN:
$ ice set 'P1'
$ ICE SHOW
$ EXIT
$ABORT_PROCESS:
$ say "Error ICING to: " + P1
$ EXIT 2
[End of file]
In the lines above ICE SET 'P1' is setting the ice environment, but I dont want this output to be echoed to VMS. But what I do want is to write the output of $ICE SHOW into a variable and then echo that out later on in the DCL (most of which ive omitted for simplification purposes)
So what should be outputted should be:
current Test Environment is DISK$DEVELOPERS:[FASTER.DEVELOP]
Instead of:
Initialising TEST Environment to FASTER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using Test Search rules FASTER
Using Test Search rules FASTER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
current Test Environment is DISK$DEVELOPERS:[FASTER.DEVELOP]
Ive had a look through the manual and im getting a bit confused so I figured I tried here. Id appreciate any pointers. Thanks.
EDIT
Here is what ive come up with after the comments, the problem im having is when I connect to VMS using an emulator such as SecureCRT the correct output is echoed. But when I run the DCL via my SSH2 library in .NET it doesnt output anything. I guess thats because it closes the SYS$OUTPUT stream temporarily or something?
$ !************************************************************************
$ !* Wrapper for setting ICE account. Outputs Environment
$ !************************************************************************
$ on error then goto ABORT_PROCESS
$ICE_DCL_MAIN:
$ DEFINE SYS$OUTPUT NL:
$ ice set 'P1'
$ DEASSIGN SYS$OUTPUT
$ ice show
$ EXIT
$ABORT_PROCESS:
$ say "Error ICING to: " + P1
$ EXIT 2
[End of file]
EDIT 2
So I guess really I need to clarify what im trying to do here. Blocking the output doesnt so matter so much, im merely trying to capture it into a Symbol for example.
So in C# for example you can have a method that returns a string. So you'd have string myResult = vms.ICETo("FASTER"); and it would return that and store it in the variable.
I guess im looking for a similar thing in VMS so that once ive iced to the environment I can call:
$ environment == $ICE SHOW
But I of course get errors with that statement
The command $ assign/user_mode Thing Sys$Output will cause output to be redirected to Thing until you $ deassign/user_mode Sys$Output or next executable image exits. An assignment without the /USER_MODE qualifier will persist until deassigned.
Thing can be a logical name, a file specification (LOG.TXT) or the null device (NLA0:) if you simply want to flush the output.
When a command procedure is executed the output can be redirected using an /OUTPUT qualifier, e.g. $ #FOO/output=LOG.TXT.
And then there is piping ... .
You can redirect the output to a temp file and then print its content later:
$ pipe write sys$output "hi" > tmp.tmp
$ ty tmp.tmp
VMS is not Unix, DCL is not Bash: you can not easily set a DCL symbol from the output of a command.
Your ICE SHOW prints one line, correct? The first word is always "current", correct?
So you can create a hack.
First let me fake your ICE command:
$ create ice.com
$ write sys$output "current Test Environment is DISK$DEVELOPERS:[FASTER.DEVELOP]"
^Z
$
and I define a dcl$path pointing to the directory where this command procedure is
so that I can use/fake the command ICE
$ define dcl$path sys$disk[]
$ ice show
current Test Environment is DISK$DEVELOPERS:[FASTER.DEVELOP]
$
Now what you need, create a command procedure which sets a job logical
$ cre deflog.com
$ def/job/nolog mylog "current''p1'"
^Z
$
And I define a command "current" to run that command procedure:
$ current="#deflog """
Yes, you need three of the double quotes at the end of the line!
And finally:
$ pipe (ice show | #sys$pipe) && mysym="''f$log("mylog")'"
$ sh symb mysym
MYSYM = "current Test Environment is DISK$DEVELOPERS:[FASTER.DEVELOP]"
$
On the other hand, I don't know what you are referring to C# and Java. Can you elaborate on that and tell us what runs where?
You can try using: DEFINE /USER SYS$OUTPUT NL:.
It works only for the next command and you dont need to deassign.
Sharing some of my experience here. I used below methods to redirect outputs to files.
Define/Assign the user output and then execute the required command/script afterwards. Output will be written to .
$define /user sys$output <file_path>
execute your command/script
OR
assign /user <file_path> sys$output
execute your command/script
deassign sys$output
To re-direct in to null device like in Unix (mentioned in above answers), you can use 'nl:' instead of
define /user sys$output nl:
or
assign /user nl: sys$output

How can I pass command-line parameters with whitespace to an apache pig script?

I want to write a pig script that takes a filter condition as a command line parameter. From the command line I want to type something like:
pig -p "MY_FILTER=field1 == 0 and field2 == 5" myscript.pig
In my script I have a line:
my_filtered_data = filter my_data by $MY_FILTER;
This works as expected when MY_FILTER has no spaces and I pass quotes around my value; So if I type MY_FILTER=\"field1==0\" at the command line the shell will pass the quotes with the value and pig does the expansion I want. However, the parameter will fail to expand if I supply it like MY_FILTER=\"field1 == 0\"
I've tried a bunch of different quoting techniques and even tried running the command directly from python's subprocess module to ensure my shell wasn't doing something weird.
Which version of Pig do you use? I use 0.9.2 and the following command works for me:
pig -p "F='field1 == 3 AND field2 == 5'" test.pig
But it doesn't work with 0.8.1.
