Scenario: /some/directory/where/blacklist/is/stored contains about 40-50 folders called, adult, gambling, banking, warez etc. There is a folder for each blocking category (and in each folder is two files, urls and domains, standard stuff for web filtering!)
I have a script to search through /some/directory/where/blacklist/is/stored and look at each text file trying to find someblockedsite.com and remove it. This is as far as I have got:
machine:/blacklistdir# sh ./find_files "blockedsite.com"
find_files is as follows:
#!/bin/bash rm -f ./found_files touch ./found_files find . -exec grep -q "$1" '{}' ; -print >> ./found_files i=1 while [ $i -le `wc -l ./found_files` ] ; do
grep -iv $1 $2 > $2.new ####This is where I am stuck, I have put$2 but I want to be reading each line of text from found_files? rm $2 mv $2.new $2
done
Something like this?
find . -exec grep -q "$1" '{}' ; -print | while read BLOCKFILE; do grep -iv "$1" $BLOCKFILE > $BLOCKFILE.new mv -f $BLOCKFILE.new $BLOCKFILE done
