how can I combine the following two awk commands into a single line:
awk -F= '$1=="ID" { print $2 ;}' /etc/*release && awk -F= '$1=="VERSION_ID" { print $2 ;}' /etc/*release | xargs
Im trying to get the linux distribution and os in a single line, in the format distribution+version.
For example: ubuntu20.04, rhel7.5
thanks in advance
>Solution :
You can capture each part into a variable and then print them out once you have processed the file:
awk -F= '$1=="ID"{id=$2}$1=="VERSION_ID"{vid=$2}END{print id,vid}' /etc/*release
