in thread Robocopy log parsing

Thanks. I made a few tweaks, and have also wraped a MySQL import process around it. So now it parses the log file and directly imports into MySQL.

use warnings; use strict; use DBI; # Set datasource my $dsn = "DBI:mysql:host=<hostname>;database=<dbname>" . ";port=<portnumber>"; # Connect to database my $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn,"userid","password"); print "Status: Connected to MySQL.\n"; my $filename = $ARGV[0]; open my $hin, '<', $filename or die "Cannot open file /$filename/"; my @fcont = <$hin>; my ($dir, $txt, $nbytes, $file_found, $sav_dir, $sav_file); foreach my $line (@fcont) { if ($line =~ /New File|New Dir/) { chomp($line); ($dir) = $line =~ /New Dir\s+(?:[0-9]+|[0-9]+?\.[0-9]+? +\s[a-z])\s(.*)/; ($file_found) = $line =~ /New File\s+(?:[0-9]+|[0-9]+?\.[0-9]+ +?\s[a-z])\s+(.*?$)/; ( $txt, $nbytes ) = $line =~ /(New File|New Dir)\s+([0-9]+|[0- +9]+?\.[0-9]+?\s[a-z])\s+.*?/; $sav_dir = $dir if $dir; $sav_file = $file_found if $file_found; $sav_dir = !defined $sav_dir ? q{} : $sav_dir; $sav_file = !defined $sav_file ? q{} : $sav_file; # print join("|", $ARGV[0],$txt,$nbytes,$sav_dir,$file_found). + "\n"; my $insert = $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO <tablename> (File,Type,Size,Dir,Name) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?)') or die "Prepare failed: " . $ +dbh->errstr(); $insert->execute($ARGV[0],$txt,$nbytes,$sav_dir,$file_found) + or die "Execute failed: " . $dbh->errstr(); } } close $hin; print "Status: Processing of $ARGV[0] complete.\n"; # Disconnect from the database $dbh->disconnect (); print "Status: Disconnected from MySQL.";
