I would like to get specific file contains from single file and put into separate files via bash. I have tried getting test1 file contain using below code and able to get it but i'm failed when getting everything in respected files.
reportFile=/report.txt
test1File=/test1.txt
test2File=/test2.txt
test3File=/test3.txt
totalLineNo=`cat ${reportFile} | wc -l`
test1LineNo=`grep -n "Test1 file content :" ${reportFile} | grep -Eo '^[^:]+'`
test2LineNo=`grep -n "Test2 file content :" ${reportFile} | grep -Eo '^[^:]+'`
test3LineNo=`grep -n "Test3 file content :" ${reportFile} | grep -Eo '^[^:]+'`
exactTest1LineNo=`echo $(( ${test1LineNo} - 1 ))`
exactTest2LineNo=`echo $(( ${test2LineNo} -1 ))`
exactTest3LineNo=`echo $(( ${test3LineNo} -1 ))`
test1Content=`cat ${reportFile} | head -n ${exactTest1LineNo}`
test3Content=`cat ${reportFile} | tail -n ${exactTest3LineNo}`
echo -e "${test1Content}\r" >> ${test1File}
echo -e "${test3Content}\r" >> ${test3File}
