Create text files from each link in a list?












0














I have a file with links like this:



http://domain.com/file_name1.mkv

http://domain.com/file_name2.mkv

http://domain.com/file_name3.mkv


... and so on.



I want to create a file for each link with extension .strm and each file to have the name of the file name and to contain the link for that file. So, for the first link the first file name will be file_name1.strm and contain the first link, for the second link the file name will be file_name2.strm and will contain the second link, and so on. How can i do that?



I have a command that is doing something close but it creates only files with the names from words in a file:



sed -e 's/$/.strm/' file | xargs -d 'n' touch





files

          You could parse the file with awk and ask it to print the various lines to filenames based on the last element of the URL. The -F/ tells awk to split the lines into fields using / as a delimiter; $0 is the entire line, and $NF is the value of the last field. The print statement executes for every line of the file.



          awk -F/ '{print $0 > $NF}' < input

            To elaborate your xargs attempt



            xargs -L1 sh -c 'f="${0##*/}"; printf "%sn" "$0" > "${f%.*}.strm"' < file


            The first substitution f="${0##*/}" removes the path components of the URL, while the second "${f%.*}.strm" removes and replaces the extension.



            Ex.



            $ xargs -L1 sh -c 'f=${0##*/}; printf "%sn" "$0" > "${f%.*}.strm"' < file
            
$ head *.strm
            
==> file_name1.strm <==
            
http://domain.com/file_name1.mkv
            

            
==> file_name2.strm <==
            
http://domain.com/file_name2.mkv
            

            
==> file_name3.strm <==
            
http://domain.com/file_name3.mkv

              • Issues: The links contain /, so the shell will interpret them as files in weirdly named subdirectories. The variables are unquoted, which may possibly be problematic if any link contains a filename globbing character. No input data is given to the loop. No explanation given in the answer.
