I think the title of my question basically covers it. Here's a contrived example which tries to filter for input lines that exactly equal a parameterized string, basically a Perlish fgrep -x
:
perl -ne 'chomp; print if $_ eq $ARGV[0];' bb <<<$'aa\nbb\ncc';
## Can't open bb: No such file or directory.
The problem of course is that the -n
option creates an implicit while (<>) { ... }
loop around the code, and the diamond operator gobbles up all command-line arguments for file names. So, although technically the bb
argument did get to @ARGV
, the whole program fails because the argument was also picked up by the diamond operator. The end result is, it is impossible to pass command-line arguments to the Perl program when using -n
.
I suppose what I really want is an option that would create an implicit while (<STDIN>) { ... }
loop around the code, so command-line arguments wouldn't be taken for file names, but such a thing does not exist.
I can think of three possible workarounds:
1: BEGIN { ... }
block to copy and clear @ARGV
.
perl -ne 'BEGIN { our @x = shift(@ARGV); } chomp; print if $_ eq $x[0];' bb <<<$'aa\nbb\ncc';
## bb
2: Manually code the while-loop in the one-liner.
perl -e 'while (<STDIN>) { chomp; print if $_ eq $ARGV[0]; }' bb <<<$'aa\nbb\ncc';
## bb
3: Find another way to pass the arguments, such as environment variables.
PAT=bb perl -ne 'chomp; print if $_ eq $ENV{PAT};' <<<$'aa\nbb\ncc';
## bb
The BEGIN { ... }
block solution is undesirable since it constitutes a bit of a jarring context switch in the one-liner, is somewhat verbose, and requires messing with the special variable @ARGV
.
I consider the manual while-loop solution to be more of a non-solution, since it forsakes the -n
option entirely, and the point is I want to be able to use the -n
option with command-line arguments.
The same can be said for the environment variable solution; the point is I want to be able to use command-line arguments with the -n
option.
Is there a better way?
You've basically identified them all. The only one you missed, that I know of at least, is the option of passing switch arguments (instead of positional arguments):
$ perl -sne'chomp; print if $_ eq $kwarg' -- -kwarg=bb <<<$'aa\nbb\ncc';
bb
You could also use one of the many getopt modules instead of -s
. This is essentially doing the same thing as manipulating @ARGV
in a BEGIN {}
block before the main program loop, but doing it for you and making it a little cleaner for a one-liner.
