recs-substream

recs-substream --help-all

Help from: --help-basic:
Usage: recs-substream <args> [<files>]
  Filters to a range of records delimited from when the begin snippet becomes
  true to when the end snippet becomes true, ie. [begin, end]. Compare to Perl's
  inclusive, bistable ".." range operator.

  See --help-snippet for details on snippets.

Arguments:
   --begin|b SNIP               Begins outputting records when this snippet
                                becomes true. If omitted, output starts from
                                beginning of the stream.
   --end|e SNIP                 Stops outputting records after this snippet
                                becomes true. If omitted, outputs to the end of
                                the stream.
   --filename-key|fk <keyspec>  Add a key with the source filename (if no
                                filename is applicable will put NONE)

  Help Options:
      --help-all      Output all help for this script
      --help          This help screen
      --help-snippet  Help on code snippets

Examples:
  Filter to a specific minute:
      recs-substream -b '{{EndTime}} =~ /Thu, 07 Nov 2013 22:42/' -e 'not {{EndTime}} =~ /Thu, 07 Nov 2013 22:42/'
  Truncate past a specific date:
      recs-substream -e '{{EndTime}} =~ /Thu, 07 Nov/'

   CODE SNIPPETS:
    Recs code snippets are perl code, with one exception. There a couple of
    variables predefined for you, and one piece of special syntax to assist in
    modifying hashes.

Special Variables:
    $r - the current record object. This may be used exactly like a hash, or you
    can use some of the special record functions, see App::RecordStream::Record
    for more information

    $line - This is the number of records run through the code snippet, starting
    at 1. For most scripts this corresponds to the line number of the input to
    the script.

    $filename - The filename of the originating record. Note: This is only
    useful if you're passing filenames directly to the recs script, piping
    from other recs scripts or from cat, for instance, will not have a
    useful filename.

Special Syntax
    Use {{search_string}} to look for a string in the keys of a record, use /
    to nest keys. You can nest into arrays by using an index. If you are
    vivifying arrays (if the array doesn't exist, prefix your key with # so
    that an array rather than a hash will be created to put a / in your key,
    escape it twice, i.e. \/

    This is exactly the same as a key spec that is always prefaced with a @, see
    'man recs' for more info on key specs

    For example: A record that looks like:
    { "foo" : { "bar 1" : 1 }, "zoo" : 2}
    Could be accessed like this:

    # value of zoo  # value of $r->{foo}->{bar 1}: (comma separate nested keys)
    {{zoo}}         {{foo/ar 1}}

    # Even assign to values (set the foo key to the value 1)
    {{foo}} = 1

    # And auto, vivify
    {{new_key/array_key/#0}} = 3 # creates an array within a hash within a hash

    # Index into an array
    {{array_key/#3}} # The value of index 3 of the array ref under the
    'array_key' hash key.

    This matching is a fuzzy keyspec matching, see --help-keyspecs for
    more details.
