tsv-filter

Filter lines of a TSV file by running tests against individual fields. More information: https://github.com/eBay/tsv-utils#tsv-filter.

  • Print the lines where a specific column is numerically equal to a given number:

tsv-filter -H --eq field_name:number path/to/tsv_file

  • Print the lines where a specific column is [eq]ual/[n]on [e]qual/[l]ess [t]han/[l]ess than or [e]qual/[g]reater [t]han/[g]reater than or [e]qual to a given number:

tsv-filter --eq|ne|lt|le|gt|ge column_number:number path/to/tsv_file

  • Print the lines where a specific column is [eq]ual/[n]ot [e]qual/part of/not part of a given string:

tsv-filter --str-eq|ne|in-fld|not-in-fld column_number:string path/to/tsv_file

  • Filter for non-empty fields:

tsv-filter --not-empty column_number path/to/tsv_file

  • Print the lines where a specific column is empty:

tsv-filter --invert --not-empty column_number path/to/tsv_file

  • Print the lines that satisfy two conditions:

tsv-filter --eq column_number1:number --str-eq column_number2:string path/to/tsv_file

  • Print the lines that match at least one condition:

tsv-filter --or --eq column_number1:number --str-eq column_number2:string path/to/tsv_file

  • Count matching lines, interpreting first line as a [H]eader:

tsv-filter --count -H --eq field_name:number path/to/tsv_file
