I have a file that contains lines in a format similar to this...
/data/file.geojson?10,20,30,40
/data/file.geojson?bbox=-5.20751953125,49.05227025601607,3.0322265625,56.46249048388979
/data/file.geojson?bbox=-21.46728515625,45.99696161820381,19.2919921875,58.88194208135912
/data/file.geojson?bbox=-2.8482055664062496,54.38935426009769,-0.300750732421875,55.158473983815306
/data/file.geojson?bbox=-21.46728515625,45.99696161820381,19.2919921875,58.88194208135912
/data/file.geojson?bbox=-21.46728515625,45.99696161820381,19.2919921875,58.88194208135912
I've tried a combination of grep, sed, gawk, and |(pipes) to try and pattern match and then change the format to be more like this...
[10,40],[30,40],[30,20][10,20],
[-5.20751953125,56.46249048388979],[3.0322265625,56.46249048388979].....
Hopefully you get the idea from the first line so I don't have to type out all the examples manually!
I've got the hang of regex to match the co-ordinates. In fact the input file is the result of extracting from apache access logs. It might be easier to read/understand answers if they just match positive integer numbers, I will then be able to slot in a more complicated pattern to match the right range.
To be able to arrange the results like you which it is important to be able to access the last for values per line.
No pattern matching is required if you use awk. You can split the input strings by a set of delimiters and reassemble the resulting fields. 40 can be accessed as $(NF), 30 as $(NF-1) and so on.
awk -F'[?,=]' '
{printf "[%s,%s],[%s,%s],[%s,%s],[%s,%s]\n",
$(NF-3),$(NF),$(NF-1),$(NF),
$(NF-1),$(NF-2),$(NF-3),$(NF-2)
}' file
I'm using ?, , or = as the field delimiters. This makes it simple to access the columns of interest.
Output:

Btw, also sed can be used here:
sed -r 's/.*[?=]([^,]+),([^,]+),([^,]+),(.*)/[\1,\4],[\3,\4],[\3,\2],[\1,\2]/' file
The command is capturing the numbers at the end each in a separate capturing group and re-assembles them in the replacement part.
Not all versions of sed support the + quantifier. The most compatible version would look like this :)
sed 's/.*[?=]\([^,]\{1,\}\),\([^,]\{1,\}+\),\([^,]\{1,\}\),\(.*\)/[\1,\4],[\3,\4],[\3,\2],[\1,\2]/' file
