Living Room / Re: Backup Power for USB device -- does it exist?

« Last post by Ath on September 26, 2018, 01:05 AM »

If it loses power momentarily then it will reset to the "application select screen" and require physical interaction to select and launch the correct app.

-Deozaan (September 25, 2018, 10:40 PM)

Are you sure that power is disconnected during boot of the RPi? Could it be that the device is reset via USB initialization commands? In that case, all your 'keep power applied' actions will be in vane...

Some USB devices with the requirement of stable power have an extra powerplug mounted, I assume yours doesn't?

Maybe you can 'sabotage' a Y-cable, by cutting the + power wire on the RPi side, and providing stable power on the other end, besides the data wires, common ground is also a requirement.

because the regex will be different! And I want to store the whole regex match in the file, which will be huge multiline text!

Whut?

We're back at square one. The circle is completed, again.

You have come here, asking for 'help'. Please provide us with what you want to achieve, and stop asking for small bits of silly info, with even more silly examples. This is not going to get you to a solution, as you obviously don't understand how problem-solving works.
I pretty sure I've said this before, a couple of weeks ago.
If you can't comply with that, I'd suggest all participants to ignore your requests until something useful comes out of your keyboard.

I want to output to a separate file all the matches where the (.+?) is the same.

-kalos (September 17, 2018, 05:03 AM)

Run a second command on your previous output

Code: PowerShell [Select]

1. gci FILEPATH\out.txt|group|select Count,Name >FILEPATH\out-counted.txt

The code is also the pseudo code.

-kalos (September 14, 2018, 12:36 PM)

Well, you could just buy EmEditor, it's not that expensive, or EditPad Pro, that does also handle really big files with ease.

For a freebee, check out the really old, and a bit harsh to download, MadEdit, it opened a > 20GB file without a hitch, and supports regex search and replace.


Like I suggested above, and me and others before, it would really get you more helpful answers if you specify what you want, need and desire complete instead of letting us pull those details with pliers, in the dark

Is there a 'free for commercial use' software that opens and processes with regex large text files of 20GB?

-kalos (September 14, 2018, 09:47 AM)

TL;DR; Yes.

Suggestions:

• Any Linux distro with a non-commercial license (most will fit)
• Linux-tools for Windows (if it's supposed to run on Windows, you didn't say it should)

In any of these environments use tools like grep, sed, awk, perl, python etc. for text processing.

• 'Plain' Windows (7 and newer)[/i]

Use powershell, like shown & explained in your other thread.

I have no clue on where CodeByter/Carl Danley went, but seeing the github page he's quite active there, just not on DC for quite some time. And his personal page just throws a 404 at me

uncompressing the rar to WishList directory in your program files (x86).

-Contro (September 08, 2018, 06:13 AM)

You'd better not install it there, a separate directory outside of any protected system folder, is preferred (and sometimes even required) for any portable software. Often used is a directory named Portable in your data partition (D:\Portable for instance, so for WishList it would be D:\Portable\WishList).

That's what I based my call-out to sed.exe on. That piece of code is quite specific (and poorly documented ), so I hope this enough for now.

My PC running Sonarr renames the files according to my preferred naming scheme and sets them up ready for viewing in Kodi.

-FrankEBailey` (September 01, 2018, 02:18 AM)

Tackle the issue at the source: Can't Sonarr store the original filenames (during the rename process), with the new filenames, in a file that is kept in the same folder as the media files? That way you can quite easily create an extra copy to re-seed. You might want/need to do a feature request for Sonarr, I can imagine more people to have the same need.

Developer's Corner / Re: Looking for lightweight, simple, portable/integrated database

« Last post by Ath on August 31, 2018, 02:48 PM »

Thank you @KodeZwerg for your nosql alternative, but the biggest objection to me is one of the main features of MongoDB: It's in the cloud. That means that my data is not really my data... and not really portable, as it requires an internet connection.

@Deozaan: As with any project, you have to choose the right tools for the job. If the combo Go/SQLite isn't working as expected/desired, it most likely isn't meant to be. You might need other tools...

A NoSql Variant could be MongoDB. It can be used by many programming Languages.

Hm, but it doesn't quite match the OP's requirements of being lightweight, simple and portable, AFAICS.

Well, you (and another user) ask a lot of questions that can easily be answered by Googling your question first (you can use Spanish there, if you prefer), and after studying and further investigating the results, you can optionally come back here to verify the choices you made. And if you do, listen to our advice. Usually you don't (seem to) take much advice given here.

Lesson no. 1: Google wants to be your friend, use it for what it's good at: Provide answers, even to silly questions, as opposed to most (somewhat) intelligent people.

You should grab the entire Workspace (Check your settings for the hotkey assigned to that, here it's Ctrl-PrtScr).
If you have more than 2 monitors connected to your system, edit away the parts you don't want to keep.
