חנן כהן • Hanan CohenI am using <a href="https://tooot.im/tags/AWK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AWK</a> for only one command. ia tasks | awk -F "identifier" "{s+=(NF-1)} END {print s}"It counts my Internet Archive tasks that are currently running.Now that I have a new computer, I didn't want to install AWK for just one command. I asked Claude to write me the same command for PowerShell. (ia tasks | ForEach-Object { ($_ -split "identifier").Count - 1 } | Measure-Object -Sum).Sum Sad to say goodby to AWK. It was very useful to me three jobs ago.

lj·rkMaybe I'm just too tired to find a way for `podlet` to write it's output to multiple files if there are multiple files to generate. E.g., if a compose file would result in multiple quadlet `.container` files.Fortunately, <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/AWK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AWK</a> is just an amazing tool and let's me write an ultra-simple state-machine to transform podlet's output into multiple files. Use with:``` podlet compose ./path/to/complex.compose | awk -f podlet_stdout_to_files.awk ```The AWK script:``` BEGIN { state="filename" } /^# / { if (state == "filename") { filename=$2; state="unit"; } else { print "unexpected filename"; exit 1; } } /^---$/ { if (state == "unit") { state="filename" } else { print "unexpected end-of-unit marker"; exit 1; } } { if (state == "unit") { print $0 >> filename } } ```Without error handling:``` BEGIN { state="filename" } /^# / { filename=$2; state="unit" } /^---$/ { state="filename" } { if (state == "unit") { print $0 >> filename } } ```
