I am trying to split a string in BASH based on 2 delimiters - Space and the \. This is the string:-
var_result="Pass results_ADV__001__FUNC__IND\ADV__001__FUNC__IND_08_06_14_10_04_34.tslog"
I want it to split in 3 parts as follows:-
part_1=Pass
part_2=results_ADV__001__FUNC__IND
part_3=ADV__001__FUNC__IND_08_06_14_10_04_34.tslog
I have tried using IFS and it splits the first one well. But the second split some how removes the "\" and sticks the entire part and I get the split as :-
test_res= Pass
log_file_info=results_ADV__001__FUNC__INDADV__001__FUNC__IND_08_06_14_10_04_34.tslog
The IFS I used is as follows:-
echo "$var_result"
IFS=' ' read -a array_1 <<< "$var_result"
echo "test_res=${array_1[0]}, log_file_info=${array_1[1]}"
Thanks in advance.
I think you need this:
IFS=' |\\' read -ra array_1 <<< "$var_result"
