Question

how i can add Add text at the beginning of each line?

for example:- i have file contain:-

/var/lib/svn/repos/b1me/products/payone/generic/code/core 
/var/lib/svn/repos/b1me/products/payone/generic/code/fees 
/var/lib/svn/repos/b1me/products/payone/generic/code/2ds

i want it to become:-

svn+ssh://svn.xxx.com.jo/var/lib/svn/repos/b1me/products/payone/generic/code/core 
svn+ssh://svn.xxx.com.jo/var/lib/svn/repos/b1me/products/payone/generic/code/fees    
svn+ssh://svn.xxx.com.jo/var/lib/svn/repos/b1me/products/payone/generic/code/2ds

in other word i want to add "svn+ssh://svn.xxx.com.jo" at the beginning of each line of this file

Answer 1

One way to do this is to use awk.

awk '{ printf "svn+ssh://svn.xxx.com.jo"; print }' <filename>

If you want to modify the file in place, you can use sed with the -i switch.

sed -i -e 's_.*_svn+ssh://svn.xxx.com.jo&_' <filename>

Answer 2

Using sed:

printf "line1\nline2\n" | sed "s/^/new text /"

Using ex:

printf "line1\nline2\n" | ex -s +"%s/^/foo bar /e" +%p -cq! /dev/stdin

Using vim:

printf "line1\nline2\n" | vim - -es +"%s/^/foo bar /e" +%p -cq!

Using shell:

printf "line1\nline2\n" | while read line; do echo foo bar $line; done
