How do I create a symbolic link using Perl 6?
Of course, as mentioned in another question, I can use actual shell commands using shell or run:
shell('ln -s REALLY_LONG_FASTQ_NAME.fastq short.fq');
run('ln', '-s', 'REALLY_LONG_FASTQ_NAME.fastq', 'short.fq');
But, I'd prefer to be able to create them more directly with a function.
UPDATED
symlink("original_filename","link_filename");
See also the official documentation on symlink.

Is there a way to tell root to execute (say) the following commands at the start?
.L /usr/lib/libgsl.so
.L /usr/lib/libgslcblas.so
I find it convenient as I have to execute this every time I start root. My .C file has uses these libraries.
I found an option -e but I cannot use it for more than one line of commands.
Sure, just add the following into a ~/.rootlogon.C (or create one in case you don't have it):
{
// old content here
gROOT->ProcessLine(".L /usr/lib/libgsl.so");
gROOT->ProcessLine(".L /usr/lib/libgslcblas.so");
}
I designed RISCV32IM processor, and I used "riscv32-unknown-elf-gcc" to generate code for testing.
However, the PC(instruction memory address) value and data memory address of the generated code had arbitrary values. I used this command:
riscv32-unknown-elf-gcc -march=rv32im -mabi=ilp32 -nostartfiles test.c
Can I know if I can set the instruction and data memory address I want?
Thanks.
Thank you for answer.
I designed only HW, and this is my first time using the SW tool chain.
Even if my question is rudimentary, please understand.
The figure is the result of the "-v" option.
enter image description here
I can't modify the script file because I use riscv tool chain in DOCKER environment.
So, I tried to copy the script file (elf32lriscv.x), modify it.
I modified it to 0x10000 ==> 0x00000.
The file name of the copied script is "test5.x".
And it was executed as follows.
What am I doing wrong?
enter image description here
The riscv compiler is using the default linker script to place text and date section... .
If you add -v option to your command line riscv32-unknown-elf-gcc -v -march=rv32im -mabi=ilp32 -nostartfiles test.c, you will see the linker script used by collect 2 ( normally it will be -melf32lriscv . you can find the linker script in ${path_to_toolchain}/riscv32-unknown-elf/lib/ldscripts/ (the default one is .x).
You can also use riscv32-unknown-elf-ld --verbose like explained by #Frant. However , you need to be careful if the toolchain was compiled with enable multilib and you compile for rv64 but the default is rv32 or vice versa. It is not the case probably, but to be sure you can specify the arch with -A elf32riscv for an rv32.
To Set the addresses you can create your own linker script or copy and modify the default one. You can only modify the executable start like explained by #Frant or make more modification and place whatever you want where you want.
Once your own linker script ready you can pass it to the linker with -Wl,-T,${own_linker_script }. you command will be riscv32-unknown-elf-gcc -march=rv32im -mabi=ilp32 -nostartfiles test.c -Wl,-T,${own_linker_script }
How can I do in meson to run a command after building a target?
Eg. I have an executable:
executable('target.elf', 'source1.c', 'source2.c')
And after target.elf built I want to execute a command (eg. chmod -x target.elf) on it.
I tried custom_target(), but that requires an output. I don't have new output, I just have target.elf. I tried run_command() but I didn't know how to execute it after the building.
executable now has an argument install_mode (added 0.47.0) to specify the file mode in symbolic format and optionally the owner/uid and group/gid for the installed files.
I just noticed that yasushi-shoji has provided this answer already.
The following code should do.
project('tutorial', 'c')
exec = executable('target.elf', 'main.c', build_by_default : false)
custom_target('final binary',
depends : exec,
input : exec,
output : 'fake',
command : ['chmod', '+x', '#INPUT#'],
build_by_default : true)
Note that because I want to always run the fake target, I'm using custom_target(). However, the command chmod + x demo doesn't generate the file fake specified in custom_target(), successive ninja command will always run the target.
If you don't want this behaviour, there are two ways:
You can write a script which chmod the target.elf and then copies it to target, thus effectively creates the target file. Make sure to change the output file in the meson.build if you do so.
If you don't mind typing ninja chmod instead of ninja, you can use run_target().
# optional
run_target('chmod',
command : ['chmod', '+x', exec])
Another alternative is to use install_mode for executable().
Also note that you should always use find_program() instead of plain chmod. This example doesn't use it for simplicity.
I like it when terminal/console test runs actually show their output in either red or green text. It seems like a lot of the testing libraries available for Go have this. However, I'd like to just use the default testing package that comes with Go. Is there a way to colorize it's output with red and green?
You can use grc, a generic colourizer, to colourize anything.
On Debian/Ubuntu, install with apt-get install grc. On a Mac with , brew install grc.
Create a config directory in your home directory:
mkdir ~/.grc
Then create your personal grc config in ~/.grc/grc.conf:
# Go
\bgo.* test\b
conf.gotest
Then create a Go test colourization config in ~/.grc/conf.gotest, such as:
regexp==== RUN .*
colour=blue
-
regexp=--- PASS: .*
colour=green
-
regexp=^PASS$
colour=green
-
regexp=^(ok|\?) .*
colour=magenta
-
regexp=--- FAIL: .*
colour=red
-
regexp=[^\s]+\.go(:\d+)?
colour=cyan
Now you can run Go tests with:
grc go test -v ./..
Sample output:
To avoid typing grc all the time, add an alias to your shell (if using Bash, either ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile or both, depending on your OS):
alias go=grc go
Now you get colourization simply by running:
go test -v ./..
You can create a wrapper shell script for this and color it using color escape sequence. Here's a simple example on Linux (I'm not sure how this would look on windows, but I guess there is a way.. :) )
go test -v . | sed ''/PASS/s//$(printf "\033[32mPASS\033[0m")/'' | sed ''/FAIL/s//$(printf "\033[31mFAIL\033[0m")/''
There's also a tool called richgo that does exactly this, in a user-friendly way.
You would still need a library to add color escape code like:
for Windows: mattn/go-colorable or shiena/ansicolor
for Unix or Windows: fatih/color or kortschak/ct
for Unix or Windows: logrusorgru/aurora (mentioned by Ivan Black in the comments)
From there, you specify what you want to color (StdOut or StdErr, like in this example)
rakyll/gotest (screenshot) is a binary that does this.
Example:
$ gotest -v github.com/rakyll/hey
Emoji
You can use colors for text as others mentioned in their answers to have colorful text with a color code or using a third-party library.
But you can use emojis instead! for example, you can use⚠️ for warning messages and 🛑 for error messages.
Or simply use these notebooks as a color:
📕: error message
📙: warning message
📗: ok status message
📘: action message
📓: canceled status message
📔: Or anything you like and want to recognize immediately by color
🎁 Bonus:
This method also helps you to quickly scan and find logs directly in the source code.
But some distributions of Linux default emoji font are not colorful by default and you may want to make them colorful, first.
BoltDB has some test methods that look like this:
func assert(tb testing.TB, condition bool, msg string, v ...interface{}) {
if !condition {
_, file, line, _ := runtime.Caller(1)
fmt.Printf("\033[31m%s:%d: "+msg+"\033[39m\n\n", append([]interface{}{filepath.Base(file), line}, v...)...)
tb.FailNow()
}
}
Here are the rest. I added the green dots here.
So I found the question about how to view the change history of a file, but the change history of this particular file is huge and I'm really only interested in the changes of a particular method. So would it be possible to see the change history for just that particular method?
I know this would require git to analyze the code and that the analysis would be different for different languages, but method/function declarations look very similar in most languages, so I thought maybe someone has implemented this feature.
The language I'm currently working with is Objective-C and the SCM I'm currently using is git, but I would be interested to know if this feature exists for any SCM/language.
Recent versions of git log learned a special form of the -L parameter:
-L :<funcname>:<file>
Trace the evolution of the line range given by "<start>,<end>" (or the function name regex <funcname>) within the <file>. You may not give any pathspec limiters. This is currently limited to a walk starting from a single revision, i.e., you may only give zero or one positive revision arguments. You can specify this option more than once.
...
If “:<funcname>” is given in place of <start> and <end>, it is a regular expression that denotes the range from the first funcname line that matches <funcname>, up to the next funcname line. “:<funcname>” searches from the end of the previous -L range, if any, otherwise from the start of file. “^:<funcname>” searches from the start of file.
In other words: if you ask Git to git log -L :myfunction:path/to/myfile.c, it will now happily print the change history of that function.
Using git gui blame is hard to make use of in scripts, and whilst git log -G and git log --pickaxe can each show you when the method definition appeared or disappeared, I haven't found any way to make them list all changes made to the body of your method.
However, you can use gitattributes and the textconv property to piece together a solution that does just that. Although these features were originally intended to help you work with binary files, they work just as well here.
The key is to have Git remove from the file all lines except the ones you're interested in before doing any diff operations. Then git log, git diff, etc. will see only the area you're interested in.
Here's the outline of what I do in another language; you can tweak it for your own needs.
Write a short shell script (or other program) that takes one argument -- the name of a source file -- and outputs only the interesting part of that file (or nothing if none of it is interesting). For example, you might use sed as follows:
#!/bin/sh
sed -n -e '/^int my_func(/,/^}/ p' "$1"
Define a Git textconv filter for your new script. (See the gitattributes man page for more details.) The name of the filter and the location of the command can be anything you like.
$ git config diff.my_filter.textconv /path/to/my_script
Tell Git to use that filter before calculating diffs for the file in question.
$ echo "my_file diff=my_filter" >> .gitattributes
Now, if you use -G. (note the .) to list all the commits that produce visible changes when your filter is applied, you will have exactly those commits that you're interested in. Any other options that use Git's diff routines, such as --patch, will also get this restricted view.
$ git log -G. --patch my_file
Voilà!
One useful improvement you might want to make is to have your filter script take a method name as its first argument (and the file as its second). This lets you specify a new method of interest just by calling git config, rather than having to edit your script. For example, you might say:
$ git config diff.my_filter.textconv "/path/to/my_command other_func"
Of course, the filter script can do whatever you like, take more arguments, or whatever: there's a lot of flexibility beyond what I've shown here.
The closest thing you can do is to determine the position of your function in the file (e.g. say your function i_am_buggy is at lines 241-263 of foo/bar.c), then run something to the effect of:
git log -p -L 200,300:foo/bar.c
This will open less (or an equivalent pager). Now you can type in /i_am_buggy (or your pager equivalent) and start stepping through the changes.
This might even work, depending on your code style:
git log -p -L /int i_am_buggy\(/,+30:foo/bar.c
This limits the search from the first hit of that regex (ideally your function declaration) to thirty lines after that. The end argument can also be a regexp, although detecting that with regexp's is an iffier proposition.
git log has an option '-G' could be used to find all differences.
-G Look for differences whose added or removed line matches the
given <regex>.
Just give it a proper regex of the function name you care about. For example,
$ git log --oneline -G'^int commit_tree'
40d52ff make commit_tree a library function
81b50f3 Move 'builtin-*' into a 'builtin/' subdirectory
7b9c0a6 git-commit-tree: make it usable from other builtins
The correct way is to use git log -L :function:path/to/file as explained in eckes answer.
But in addition, if your function is very long, you may want to see only the changes that various commit had introduced, not the whole function lines, included unmodified, for each commit that maybe touch only one of these lines. Like a normal diff does.
Normally git log can view differences with -p, but this not work with -L.
So you have to grep git log -L to show only involved lines and commits/files header to contextualize them. The trick here is to match only terminal colored lines, adding --color switch, with a regex. Finally:
git log -L :function:path/to/file --color | grep --color=never -E -e "^(^[\[[0-9;]*[a-zA-Z])+" -3
Note that ^[ should be actual, literal ^[. You can type them by pressing ^V^[ in bash, that is Ctrl + V, Ctrl + [. Reference here.
Also last -3 switch, allows to print 3 lines of output context, before and after each matched line. You may want to adjust it to your needs.
Show function history with git log -L :<funcname>:<file> as showed in eckes's answer and git doc
If it shows nothing, refer to Defining a custom hunk-header to add something like *.java diff=java to the .gitattributes file to support your language.
Show function history between commits with git log commit1..commit2 -L :functionName:filePath
Show overloaded function history (there may be many function with same name, but with different parameters) with git log -L :sum\(double:filepath
git blame shows you who last changed each line of the file; you can specify the lines to examine so as to avoid getting the history of lines outside your function.
