ssplit
An extremely simple CLI tool to split string contents.
Usage
❯ ssplit --help
Simple CLI tool to split string contents
Usage: ssplit [OPTIONS] --split <SPLIT> [FILE]
Arguments:
[FILE] A file to be read as input; If not provided, StdIn is used as input
Options:
-s, --split <SPLIT> The string on which the input is split
-d, --delimiter <DELIMITER> The delimiter for the split elements [default: "\n"]
-i, --idx <IDX> Only select a given index, indices or index ranges (separated by ','); Ranges are defined in the form of {start}-{end} (.i.e. 3-7)
-h, --help Print help
-V, --version Print version
By default, all splitted elements are printed to StdOut delimited by the given delimiter (new line by default).
If you pass the -i
or --idx
parameter, you can define a specific index, indices or index ranges to be returned. For example:
ssplit mydata.txt -s '/' -i '1,3,6-9'
The example above will split the input and only print elements at index 1, 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9.
Performance
Because the tool reads the input in chunks and directly prints the split output to StdOut, the runtime should be linear to the size of the input and the memory consumption should be constant.
