Some IDEs support a feature usually called "master filelist", that the user provides a simple text file containing all files for a project, thus the IDE only parses the listed files.
Is it possible with vscode workspace? Note that I am aware of the "Exclude" feature of vscode, but it is not convenient for my use case.
Thanks.
After trying many methods (all in vain), I came up with the following workaround: make symlinks to all files in the master filelist.
Suppose that the files in the filelist (${ABS_INCLUDE}) are with absolute pathes, and suppose they share a root directory (which can be always true), then first create a dedicated root directory (SYM_ROOT_DIR) for vscode workspace, and then create symlinks for each files under the new root directory, e.g.,
mkdir -p ${SYM_ROOT_DIR}
while IFS= read -r line
do
OLD_DIR=$(dirname "$line")
BASENAME=$(basename "$line")
SYM_DIR=$(echo "${OLD_DIR}" | sed "s#${ABS_ROOT_DIR}#${SYM_ROOT_DIR}#")
mkdir -p ${SYM_DIR}
ln -s ${line} ${SYM_DIR}/${BASENAME}
done < ${ABS_INCLUDE}

I'm unable to use the rm command to remove files remotely from another directory. I'm a beginner so I apologise for my inability to elaborate properly.
Here's what I'm trying to do:
I'm trying to delete all .srt files from a sub directory. It works when I cd into the specific directory like so:
Command 1:
cd /users/jakubdonovan/library/cloudstorage/iCloud\ drive/the-modern-python3-bootcamp/target_folder
Command 2:
rm *.srt
However, let's say I want to quickly delete a specific file type from a folder without first using the "cd" command, like so:
rm *.srt /users/jakubdonovan/library/cloudstorage/iCloud\ drive/the-modern-python3-bootcamp/target_folder
It returns with "No matches for wildcard '*.srt'. See help expand."
Which is strange because I can use the touch, cp and and all the other commands remotely without a problem.
Is there a way to make the command "rm *.filetype" remove all the files with that specific filetype from a folder and all its subfolders in one swoop?
If you would like to rm in a sub-directory you just have to specify that sub-directory in the command.
rm /path/to/folder/*.filetype
or if you know that the folder is inside your current directory you can try...
rm ./folder/*.filetype
I have this wget command:
sudo wget --user-agent='some-agent' --referer=http://some-referrer.html -N -r -nH --cut-dirs=x --timeout=xxx --directory-prefix=/directory/for/downloaded/files -i list-of-files-to-download.txt
-N will check if there is actually a newer file to download.
-r will turn the recursive retrieving on.
-nH will disable the generation of host-prefixed directories.
--cut-dirs=X will avoid the generation of the host's subdirectories.
--timeout=xxx will, well, timeout :)
--directory-prefix will store files in the desired directorty.
This works nice, no problem.
Now, to the issue:
Let's say my files-to-download.txt has these kind of files:
http://website/directory1/picture-same-name.jpg
http://website/directory2/picture-same-name.jpg
http://website/directory3/picture-same-name.jpg
etc...
You can see the problem: on the second download, wget will see we already have a picture-same-name.jpg, so it won't download the second or any of the following ones with the same name. I cannot mirror the directory structure because I need all the downloaded files to be in the same directory. I can't use the -O option because it clashes with --N, and I need that. I've tried to use -nd, but doesn't seem to work for me.
So, ideally, I need to be able to:
a.- wget from a list of url's the way I do now, keeping my parameters.
b.- get all files at the same directory and being able to rename each file.
Does anybody have any solution to this?
Thanks in advance.
I would suggest 2 approaches -
Use the "-nc" or the "--no-clobber" option. From the man page -
-nc
--no-clobber
If a file is downloaded more than once in the same directory, >Wget's behavior depends on a few options, including -nc. In certain >cases, the local file will be
clobbered, or overwritten, upon repeated download. In other >cases it will be preserved.
When running Wget without -N, -nc, -r, or -p, downloading the >same file in the same directory will result in the original copy of file >being preserved and the second copy
being named file.1. If that file is downloaded yet again, the >third copy will be named file.2, and so on. (This is also the behavior >with -nd, even if -r or -p are in
effect.) When -nc is specified, this behavior is suppressed, >and Wget will refuse to download newer copies of file. Therefore, ""no->clobber"" is actually a misnomer in
this mode---it's not clobbering that's prevented (as the >numeric suffixes were already preventing clobbering), but rather the >multiple version saving that's prevented.
When running Wget with -r or -p, but without -N, -nd, or -nc, >re-downloading a file will result in the new copy simply overwriting the >old. Adding -nc will prevent this
behavior, instead causing the original version to be preserved >and any newer copies on the server to be ignored.
When running Wget with -N, with or without -r or -p, the >decision as to whether or not to download a newer copy of a file depends >on the local and remote timestamp and
size of the file. -nc may not be specified at the same time as >-N.
A combination with -O/--output-document is only accepted if the >given output file does not exist.
Note that when -nc is specified, files with the suffixes .html >or .htm will be loaded from the local disk and parsed as if they had been >retrieved from the Web.
As you can see from this man page entry, the behavior might be unpredictable/unexpected. You will need to see if it works for you.
Another approach would be to use a bash script. I am most comfortable using bash on *nix, so forgive the platform dependency. However the logic is sound, and with a bit of modifications, you can get it to work on other platforms/scripts as well.
Sample pseudocode bash script -
for i in `cat list-of-files-to-download.txt`;
do
wget <all your flags except the -i flag> $i -O /path/to/custom/directory/filename ;
done ;
You can modify the script to download each file to a temporary file, parse $i to get the filename from the URL, check if the file exists on the disk, and then take a decision to rename the temp file to the name that you want.
This offers much more control over your downloads.
Some git mistakes happened and I lost a lot of changes for one file. I was using Eclipse as my IDE but the git mishap included deleting the project and re cloning the directory. So I can't do the restore from within Eclipse. I believe I have found the local history file that contains the code I want to restore but I'm not sure how to cat this file. It kinda looks like a json.
Anyone know how to restore or read the .metadata.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources.history
files?
I was able to recover my code.
I went to prj/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.history
Then did some bashing:
fgrep -r -c "[Some function name specific to that file]" * | grep -v ":0" | cut -d : -f 1 | xargs ls -l | grep "Jul 29"
So this is greping and counting the number of times some text specific to the code I'm missing shows up in the files, then removes the files where the count is 0, then removes the count from the end of the file name, then does ls to get details on the files, then optionally search for a specific day. Since I was working with clojure I noticed that there were files that either had a large or small file size. The large files were backups of the REPL, the small files were backups of the code.
+1 for Eclipse :)
I'm developing a large web application in Eclipse and some of the resources (I'm talking about files, NOT code) are getting deprecated, however, I don't know which are and I'm including them in my ending war file.
I know Eclipse recognizes file paths into its directory because I can access the link to an image or other page while I'm editing one of my xhtml pages (using Control). But is there a way to localize the unused resources in order to remove them?
Following these 3 steps would work for sites with a relatively finite number of dynamic pages:
Install your site on a filesystem mount'ed with atime (access time).
Try harvesting the whole site with wget.
Use find to see which files were not accessed recently.
Done.
As I know Eclipse doesn't have this (need this too).
I'm using grep in conjuction with bash scripting - shell script takes files in my resource folder, put filenames in list, greping throught source code for every record in the list and if grep find it it is removed.
At the end list is printed on console - just unused resources retain in the list.
UCDetector might be your best bet, specifically, the custom marker aspects of this tool.
In Eclipse I have not found a way. I have used the following shell command script.
Find .ftl template files which are NOT referenced in .java files
cd myfolder
find . -name "*.ftl" -printf "%f\n" |while read fname; do grep --include \*.java -rl "$fname" . > /dev/null || echo "${fname} not referenced" ; done;
or
Find all .ftl template files which are NOT referenced in .java, .ftl, .inc files
cd myfolder
find . -name "*.ftl" -printf "%f\n" |while read fname; do grep --include \*.java --include \*.ftl --include \*.inc -rl "$fname" . > /dev/null || echo "${fname} not referenced" ; done;
Note: on MacOSX you can use gfind instead of find in case -printf is not working.
Example output
productIndex2.ftl not referenced
showTestpage.ftl not referenced
I have a bunch of directories named project1, project2, etc.
In those folders are a bunch of perl files (extension ".pl").
Basically, I want to just copy the contents of those .pl files into a new file, let's call it "everything.txt".
Can someone help me out with this? I really don't care which programming language it's done in, although I'd prefer something commandline. But perl, python, and Java would work too.
Edit: Also, there are some duplicate names, which shouldn't be a problem given I just want to write their contents out to a file, but just thought I'd let you know.
bash: cat project*/*.pl > everything.txt
In Unix-y systems:
find project1 project2 ... -name \*.pl -exec cat {} \; > everything.txt
To make, say, a proper .tar archive file that will let you recover the original file names and permissions:
tar cf everything.txt.tar $(find project1 project2 ... -name \*.pl)
(The $(...) syntax requires the bash shell).
