clubak - Man Page

clubak [ Options ]

clubak formats text from standard input containing lines of the form "node:output".  It is fully backward compatible with dshbak(1) but provides additional features. For instance, clubak always displays its results sorted by node/nodeset.

You do not need to use clubak when using clush(1) as all output formatting features are already included in it. It is provided for other usages, like post-processing results of the form "node:output".

Like clush(1), clubak uses the ClusterShell.MsgTree module of the ClusterShell library (see pydoc ClusterShell.MsgTree).

clubak should be started with connected standard input.

--version

show clubak version number and exit

-b,  -c,  --dshbak

gather nodes with same output (-c and --dshbak are provided for dshbak(1) compatibility)

-B

same as -b; accepted for compatibility with clush(1), where -B also gathers standard error

-q,  --quiet

be quiet, print essential output only (e.g. suppress the node count displayed next to gathered nodeset headers)

-v,  --verbose

be verbose, print informative messages; also echo each input line to standard output prefixed by INPUT

-d,  --debug

output more messages for debugging purpose

-L

disable header block and order output by nodes

-N

disable labeling of command output

-r,  --regroup

fold nodeset using node groups

--axis=RANGESET

for nD nodesets, fold the displayed nodeset (e.g. in gathered output headers) along provided axis only. Axes are indexed from 1 to n and can be specified here either using the rangeset syntax, e.g. '1', '1-2', '1,3', or by a single negative number meaning that the index is counted from the end. Because some nodesets may have several different dimensions, axis indices are silently truncated to fall in the allowed range. This is the per-invocation equivalent of the fold_axis library default.

-s GROUPSOURCE, --groupsource=GROUPSOURCE

optional groups.conf(5) group source to use

--groupsconf=FILE

use alternate config file for groups.conf(5)

-G,  --groupbase

do not display group source prefix (always @groupname)

-S SEPARATOR, --separator=SEPARATOR

node / line content separator string (default: :)

-F,  --fast

faster but memory hungry mode (preload all messages per node)

-T,  --tree

message tree trace mode; switch to enable ClusterShell.MsgTree trace mode, all keys/nodes being kept for each message element of the tree, thus allowing special output display

--interpret-keys=INTERPRET_KEYS

whether to interpret keys (the field before the separator on each input line) as node sets. INTERPRET_KEYS is never, always or auto (the default). With never, each key is kept as a plain string; with always, every key must be a valid node set; with auto, keys are interpreted as node sets, but if any key cannot be parsed, clubak silently switches to treating all keys as plain strings.

--color=WHENCOLOR

clubak can use NO_COLOR, CLICOLOR and CLICOLOR_FORCE environment variables. --color command line option always takes precedence over environment variables. NO_COLOR takes precedence over CLICOLOR_FORCE which takes precedence over CLICOLOR. --color tells whether to use ANSI colors to surround node or nodeset prefix/header with escape sequences to display them in color on the terminal. WHENCOLOR is never, always or auto (which uses color if standard output refers to a terminal). Color is set to [34m (blue foreground text) and cannot be modified.

--diff

show diff between gathered outputs

An exit status of zero indicates success of the clubak command.

1.

clubak can be used to gather some recorded clush(1) results:

Record clush(1) results in a file:

# clush -w node[1-7] uname -r >/tmp/clush_output
# clush -w node[32-159] uname -r >>/tmp/clush_output

Display file gathered results (in line-mode):

# clubak -bL </tmp/clush_output

2.

Another example, iterate over node* text files in current directory and gather characters count for all of them:

# find -name "node*" -exec wc -c {} ; | awk '{ gsub("./","",$2); print $2": "$1 }' | clubak -bL
node[1,3]: 7
node2: 9
