Hello guys,by DonJ at 2013-01-22 08:44:32
I am sure that the question is easy for you, but i just started study loops in PoSh. So
I have a TXT file with conext like
########
#London#
########
street1
street2
street3
########
#Glasgo#
########
street1
street2
street3
I need to insert new street in London section
the line ######## is not uniqe
i tried in this way$Patern = "#London#"
$FileOriginal = "somefile.txt"
# create empty Array and use it as a modified file… #
[String] $FileModified = @()
Foreach ($Line in $FileOriginal)
{
$FileModified += $Line
if ($Line -match $patern)
{
#Add Lines after the selected pattern
$FileModified += $Line
$FileModified +="new street1"
$FileModified +="new street2"
}
}
Set-Content $fileName $FileModified
but nothing works
thank you for suggestions
The logic on this is going to be pretty ugly because of the nature of the file. You have the right approach, but don’t use -Match. Use -Eq instead. I also don’t see where you’re loading $FileOriginal. Normally, you’d use Get-Content to load the file. Right now, $FileOriginal only contains a filename. That’s why your script isn’t doing anything.by lopyeg at 2013-01-23 00:13:01
or do i need to count all linesby lopyeg at 2013-01-23 03:00:51
get the number of patern line
and add the text into the line with nubmer of (paternLine.Nubmer+2) ?
loops are understandable for me ((
i’ve done like this$PatternNumber =(Select-String -Path $filename -Pattern "London").linenumber
$FileOriginal[($PatternNumber+1)] += "r
n new streetr
n new street2"
