Re: [rancid] Unable to figure out "end of run not found"

2019-06-17 Thread Gauthier, Chris 
Interesting.  I thought it would get mixed up into the value of the variable…. 
I’m not an expert programmer at all, but thought I needed to use the ; to 
separate the commands appropriately.  But, my expertise on shell variables is a 
tad (understatement, really) limited.  So, I shall defer! :)

Cheers,
Chris

I actually don't use the semicolon. Not sure if this is bash specific, sh 
specific, or posix general, but without the semicolon it sets the global 
environment variable only for the duration of that command following the 
variable definition, and unset it upon returning control to the cli. See also 
your "export" comment, which has correlating implications regarding environment 
vs namespace vs scope.
But I'm not an experienced programmer, and don't pretend to grok the various 
nuances, benefits, and pitfalls known by those who actually know what they're 
doing, so if using the semicolon is better I all ears.

Don’t forget the ; between the NOPIPE=yes and the rest of the command!  :-)

Some flavors of linux also want you to use the export command..

If you’re using Linux, the command is:

NOPIPE=yes rancid -d -t  

This will generate two files:
.new
.raw

.new is the parsed output
.raw is pure log of the session (ie, it even captures non-printing characters). 
 I believe it’s only dumped if you set both NOPIPE and -d.

I’ve used the .raw output on many occasions.  At the moment I’m even 
troubleshooting a device CPU issue that rancid tripped on that I wouldn’t have 
found but for this; “clogin -c ” was even working fine.

No, there is not. But I guess you're thinking maybe the login doesn't work 
because of heavy traffic.

So this got me looking for how to do debug output per-host. There doesn't seem 
to be, but that got me to this posting: 
https://www.shrubbery.net/pipermail/rancid-discuss/2015-October/008742.html
 And that made me notice that my router.db entry was corrupt (wrong device 
type.)

So, typical user error. Thanks for (indirectly) getting me in the right 
direction though!

You are right: ; is not necessary.

NOPIPE=yes rancid -d -t type devicename

is is a perfectly valid syntax according to POSIX Shell Grammar Rules.
It works with bash, dash, ksh, zsh and other shells.

https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_10_02 
see "simple_command" syntax and rule 7, which defines "ASSIGNMENT_WORD".


simple_command   : cmd_prefix cmd_word cmd_suffix
| cmd_prefix cmd_word
| cmd_prefix
| cmd_name cmd_suffix
| cmd_name

cmd_prefix   :io_redirect
| cmd_prefix io_redirect
|ASSIGNMENT_WORD
| cmd_prefix ASSIGNMENT_WORD

You don't need the ; and you dont need export, and you can even put
redirects, as long as assignments are before the command.
Example :
XYZ=foo /tmp/y A=1 B=bar mycommand myarg
