One potential problem with +this approach is that the manipulations have to be very well thought out +in advance. Another is that the manipulations will probably need to be +applied uniformly. And third, the data must be very well understood in +advance. Not all situations and data easily conform to these +constraints. + +Alternatively, when the changes needed for the data are more than +trivial, or perhaps you just don't feel like expending the mental energy +needed to work out all the expressions in advance, a typical approach +might be to run some process or pipeline, dump output to a file, edit +the file with vi, pico, or emacs, then push the data along to the next +phase by using the file as input to some additional process or pipeline. +The catch here - other than the sheer awkwardness of this process - is +that you have to remember to come back later and clean up all of those +little and not-so-little "temporary" files. + +So, wouldn't you just like to be able to tap in an edit session at any +arbitrary point in the pipeline, do your magic on the data, then have it +automagically continue on its merry way? The vip program provides this +functionality, and operates syntactically just like any other filter. diff --git a/sysutils/vip/Makefile b/sysutils/vip/Makefile new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..5e5cef9aa5c --- /dev/null +++ b/sysutils/vip/Makefile @@ -0,0 +1,31 @@ +# $NetBSD: Makefile,v 1.1.1.1 2004/07/14 11:41:52 agc Exp $ + +DISTNAME= vip-19971113 +CATEGORIES= sysutils +MASTER_SITES= http://www.cs.duke.edu/~des/scripts/ +DISTFILES= vip vip.man + +MAINTAINER= tech-pkg@NetBSD.org +HOMEPAGE= http://www.cs.duke.edu/~des/vip.html +COMMENT= Script to edit the data at any point in a pipeline + +PKG_INSTALLATION_TYPES= overwrite pkgviews + +DIST_SUBDIR= ${PKGNAME_NOREV} + +WRKSRC= ${WRKDIR} +NO_BUILDLINK= # defined +NO_CONFIGURE= # defined +NO_BUILD= # defined + +INSTALLATION_DIRS= bin man/man8 + +do-extract: + ${CP} ${DISTDIR}/${DIST_SUBDIR}/vip ${WRKSRC} + ${CP} ${DISTDIR}/${DIST_SUBDIR}/vip.man ${WRKSRC} + +do-install: + ${INSTALL_SCRIPT} ${WRKSRC}/vip ${PREFIX}/bin + ${INSTALL_MAN} ${WRKSRC}/vip.man ${PREFIX}/man/man8/vip.8 + +.include "../../mk/bsd.pkg.mk" diff --git a/sysutils/vip/PLIST b/sysutils/vip/PLIST new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..9cb687f082a --- /dev/null +++ b/sysutils/vip/PLIST @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +@comment $NetBSD: PLIST,v 1.1.1.1 2004/07/14 11:41:52 agc Exp $ +bin/vip +man/man8/vip.8 diff --git a/sysutils/vip/distinfo b/sysutils/vip/distinfo new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..95ea9c10c81 --- /dev/null +++ b/sysutils/vip/distinfo @@ -0,0 +1,6 @@ +$NetBSD: distinfo,v 1.1.1.1 2004/07/14 11:41:52 agc Exp $ + +SHA1 (vip-19971113/vip) = 0b2794b5ac2792af5fcf1d97f9aae04798eac049 +Size (vip-19971113/vip) = 4752 bytes +SHA1 (vip-19971113/vip.man) = d52ce874d594ca2c82538200706bffdf1313fdc1 +Size (vip-19971113/vip.man) = 2411 bytes |
