I want to match a condition in bash containing “whitespaces” and “OR” condition within strings. I am unable to do as i am new to shell scripting, please help as it going to else loop where it is matching ${myarrlin[1]} . I am getting “Centrify is disabled” but i want the condition to be true here. Here is my code :
JavaScript
x
FILE_CENT="/etc/nsswitch.conf"
OS=`uname`
if [[ $OS = 'Linux' ]]; then
if [[ -e $FILE_CENT ]]; then
echo "nsswitch.conf found, Proceeding further..."
while read -r LINE
do
if [[ $LINE =~ ^passwd ]]; then
myarrlin=($LINE)
if [[ ${myarrlin[1]} =~ ^(centrify)|(centrifydc)[[:space:]]* || ${myarrlin[1]} =~ [[:space:]]+(centrify)|(centrifydc)[[:space:]]* ]]; then
echo "Centrify is enabled"
else
echo "Centrify is disabled"
fi
fi
done < $FILE_CENT
else
echo "nsswitch.conf does not exist in $OS, cannot fetch CENTRIFY information!"
fi
fi
nsswitch.conf >>>
JavaScript
passwd: centrify files
or
passwd: centrifydc files
or
passwd: files centrify
or
passwd: files centrifydc

Answer
Why are you doing this: myarrlin=($LINE)
?
If you just want to know if the line contains centrify:
JavaScript
while read -r LINE
do
if [[ ${LINE} =~ ^passwd ]]; then
if [[ ${LINE} == *"centrify"* ]]; then
echo "Centrify is enabled"
else
echo "Centrify is disabled"
fi
fi
done < $FILE_CENT
