We have a combination Plex Media/Minecraft/Archive server that we’ve had since we purchased our first 6TB Hard Drive on December 30, 2019 ($99.99 at the time). After some time we upgraded to our massive 14TB Hard Drive ($293.00 at the time) on October 16, 2021. It took a bit over a couple years to fill things up, and now we recently invested into a 16TB Hard Drive ($279.00 at purchase) to continue our storage needs.
$ df -h

Now it’s time to get this new drive ready for usage.
Read MoreToday I Learned: RTSP and D-Link DCS-8526LH
I have a D-Link DCS-8526LH Camera in my living room pointed to my front door. I originally purchased it a long, long time ago to keep an eye on kids during school while at home during COVID. It’s aged well, and it’s a nice thing. It lets me know if someone’s coming into my front door whether I want to know about it or not, and that’s all I need to know.
Read MoreToday I learned: command > script
Had to compare two files at work today. Actually, I had to compare one file to a series of files to see what data exists in both of them. This technically comes down to a LEFT JOIN where we only want left column data when it exists in the right column.
So, in writing a script in PHP it comes down to:
<?php
ini_set('MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');
if (!file_exists($argv[1])) { die('file ' . $argv[1] . ' not found'); }
if (!file_exists($argv[2])) { die('file ' . $argv[2] . ' not found'); }
$fp = fopen($argv[1], 'rt');
$lines = [];
do {
$line = trim(fgets($fp));
if (strlen($line) > 0) {
$lines[] = $line;
}
} while (!feof($fp));
fclose($fp);
$fp = fopen($argv[2], 'rt');
do {
$line = trim(fgets($fp));
if (strlen($line) > 0) {
if (in_array($line, $lines)) {
echo "$line\n";
}
}
} while (!feof($fp));
fclose($fp);This script, albeit working like a charm, takes a while with large amounts of records.
After some googling this script isn’t really necessary if you use grep correctly. You also gain the speed of an executable in one fell swoop.
$ grep -Fxf [file1] [file2]Output is exactly the same.
