如何使用awk提取引用字段?

我正在使用

awk '{ printf "%s", $3 }'

从空格分隔的行中提取一些字段。当我引用字段时,我得到部分结果。请问有谁提出解决方案吗?

下次显示您的输入文件和所需的输出。要获得引用的字段,

$ cat file
field1 field2 "field 3" field4 "field5"

$ awk -F'"' '{for(i=2;i<=NF;i+=2) print $i}' file
field 3
field5

这实际上非常困难。我提出了以下awk脚本,该脚本手动拆分行并将所有字段存储在数组中。

{
    s = $0
    i = 0
    split("", a)
    while ((m = match(s, /"[^"]*"/)) > 0) {
        # Add all unquoted fields before this field
        n = split(substr(s, 1, m - 1), t)
        for (j = 1; j <= n; j++)
            a[++i] = t[j]
        # Add this quoted field
        a[++i] = substr(s, RSTART + 1, RLENGTH - 2)
        s = substr(s, RSTART + RLENGTH)
        if (i >= 3) # We can stop once we have field 3
            break
    }
    # Process the remaining unquoted fields after the last quoted field
    n = split(s, t)
    for (j = 1; j <= n; j++)
        a[++i] = t[j]
    print a[3]
}

这是此问题的可能替代解决方案。它的工作原理是找到以引号开头或结尾的字段,然后将它们连接在一起。最后它会更新字段和NF,因此如果您在执行合并之后放置更多模式,则可以使用所有常规awk功能处理(新)字段。

我认为这只使用POSIX awk的功能而且不依赖于gawk扩展,但我并不完全确定。

# This function joins the fields $start to $stop together with FS, shifting
# subsequent fields down and updating NF.
#
function merge_fields(start, stop) {
    #printf "Merge fields $%d to $%d\n", start, stop;
    if (start >= stop)
        return;
    merged = "";
    for (i = start; i <= stop; i++) {
        if (merged)
            merged = merged OFS $i;
        else
            merged = $i;
    }
    $start = merged;

    offs = stop - start;
    for (i = start + 1; i <= NF; i++) {
        #printf "$%d = $%d\n", i, i+offs;
        $i = $(i + offs);
    }
    NF -= offs;
}

# Merge quoted fields together.
{
    start = stop = 0;
    for (i = 1; i <= NF; i++) {
        if (match($i, /^"/))
            start = i;
        if (match($i, /"$/))
            stop = i;
        if (start && stop && stop > start) {
            merge_fields(start, stop);
            # Start again from the beginning.
            i = 0;
            start = stop = 0;
        }
    }
}

# This rule executes after the one above. It sees the fields after merging.
{
    for (i = 1; i <= NF; i++) {
        printf "Field %d: >>>%s<<<\n", i, $i;
    }
}

在输入文件中:

thing "more things" "thing" "more things and stuff"

它产生:

Field 1: >>>thing<<<
Field 2: >>>"more things"<<<
Field 3: >>>"thing"<<<
Field 4: >>>"more things and stuff"<<<

如果您只是寻找特定领域,那么

$ cat file
field1 field2 "field 3" field4 "field5"

awk -F"\"" '{print $2}' file

的工作原理。它将文件拆分为“,因此上面示例中的第二个字段是您想要的那个。
