Combining outputs?

[isthistheend]

Hi,
i'm new at shell scripting.. i need to combine different syntax outputs.
I try to get interface name with first syntax and ip add with second one..

ifconfig |grep -E 'flags' |grep -v lo |grep -v enc |awk -F":" '{print $1}'

ifconfig |grep -E 'inet' |grep -v inet6 | grep -v 127.0.0.1 |awk '{print $2}'

i need to combine their outputs like;

"İnterface name" "ip address"

i bet solution is too easy but i stuck D:
Please Help.. Thanks a lot..

This sounds like a homework problem.

I hope others let you respond before jumping in providing answers. You will get more out of the exercise if you work it out yourself as opposed to simply letting someone else supply you an answer.

In fact, there are several ways this script can be written.

i need to combine their outputs like;

"İnterface name" "ip address"

So, let me paraphrase the information presented. There are two values you have determined.

• How would you assign the result of each to a variable?
• How would you print two different variables on the same line?

For bonus points, a very basic introduction to shell scripting can be found at the following:

The answers to your questions can be found there too, but you may need to think about the fundamental problems first.

You are close. You only have to glue them together.

#!/bin/sh

name=$(ifconfig |grep -E 'flags' |grep -v lo |grep -v enc |awk -F":" '{print $1}')
echo "The interfaces are: $name"

#ip=$(ifconfig |grep -E 'inet' |grep -v inet6 | grep -v 127.0.0.1 |awk '{print $2}')

for X in $name ; do
    ip=$(ifconfig $X  | grep 'inet ' | awk '{print $2}')
cat <<END
Interface name: $X  IP address: $ip
END
done

Set the variable 'name' to the names of the NICs. (Using your grep/awk wizardy)
Just echo this variable to check
Now loop over these names, do an 'ifconfig' for each of them and filter the 'inet ' line to extract the IP address.

The output in my case

The interfaces are: bge0
re0
Interface name: bge0  IP address: 
Interface name: re0  IP address: 192.168.222.20

My ifconfig output:

$ ifconfiglo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 33160
        priority: 0
        groups: lo
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000
        inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128
        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4
bge0: flags=8802<BROADCAST,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        lladdr 00:10:18:00:9f:fd
        priority: 0
        media: Ethernet autoselect (none)
        status: no carrier
re0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        lladdr 00:19:db:47:b0:4c
        priority: 0
        groups: egress
        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex,rxpause,txpause)
        status: active
        inet 192.168.222.20 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.222.255
        inet6 fe80::219:dbff:fe47:b04c%re0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2

        priority: 0

Thank you ocicat and J65nko..
i was thinking about using "for" but i wasnt sure how to use it. I get all of code now. i add the code

#!/bin/sh

name=$(ifconfig |grep -E 'flags' |grep -v lo |grep -v enc |awk -F":" '{print $1}')
ip=$(ifconfig |grep -E 'inet' |grep -v inet6 | grep -v 127.0.0.1 |awk '{print $2}')
status=$(ifconfig | grep status | awk '{print $2}')

for X in $name ; do
    ip=$(ifconfig $X  | grep 'inet ' | awk '{print $2}')
    status=$(ifconfig $X | grep status | awk -F ":" '{print $2}')
cat <<END
Interface name: $X  IP address: $ip Status: $status
END
done

my output:

Interface name: bge0  IP address: 10.10.35.12 Status: active
Interface name: bge1  IP address:  Status: no carrier

Now i'm looking for adding "No IP" or something like that when interface have no ip or carrier, like:
Interface name: bge1 IP address:"No Ip Address" Status: no carrier

i think "if" will solve the stuation (:
Thank you both again..

Fully respecting what @ocicat has suggested, now that J65nko has modified OPs attempt, I'll try with awk only:

$ ifconfig -a | awk ' \
/lo/||/enc/      {next}
/flags/          {iface=$1}
/inet /&&iface   {buf[iface]=$2}
END{for(i in buf)printf("%s\t%s\n", i, buf[i])}'

^ good one

[isthistheend]

Thank you all for your replies..

@isthistheend

I was pretty sure my message came before yours yesterday...

Anyway, I just redesigned awk script a bit to add "no IP" output and a few comments:

# First we skip interfaces we don't want shown
# Comment out if want to display them too

/lo0/||/enc/{next}

# We remember interfaces in iface variable, and increase gotif
# If we get more that 2 interfaces it means last one doesn't have an address
# so we put it in noip array and decrease the gotif counter

/flags/{
	if(++gotif>1){noip[iface]++; gotif--}

	iface=$1
}

# We found an address. We put interface and address in buf array
# and decrease counter by 1

/inet /&&gotif{	
	buf[iface]=$2
	gotif--
}
# END block
END{	

	# If we still have counter set it means there is last interface
	# that doesn't have an address so we include that one too

	if(gotif>=1) noip[iface]++

	# We print out both arrays

	for(i in buf) printf("%s\t%s\n", i, buf[i])
	for(j in noip) printf("%s\tNo address\n", j)
}

Try to call it as:

ifconfig -a | awk -f thascript.awk

I leave to you to get "status" message displayed in output, just make sure you post it here in case someone else needs it as well.

All best

Thank you for your awk code s0xxx, i'll study it for sure (:
This may not be equal to your code but i want to show what i have done to get "No ip" thing (:

I add if statement into for loop like;

for X in $name 
do
    ip=$(ifconfig $X  | grep 'inet ' | awk '{print $2}')
    status=$(ifconfig $X | grep status | awk -F ":" '{print $2}')

if [ ! -e $ip ]; then
    echo "Interface Name: $X" "Ip Address: $ip" "Status: $status"
else
    echo "Interface Name: $X" "Ip Address: No ip address" "Status: $status"
 fi

done

and i got output;

Interface name: re0 IP address: 10.10.35.29 Status: active
Interface name: re1 IP address: No ip address Status: no carrier

i hope i done correct and hope to it can show a way to newbies like me (:

Best regards..
