I am having an issue with the code below.
Could you please take a quick look at the highlighted and commented code
below and let me know what's wrong?
Thank you
Victor
input.file
group.was=hostname1 hostname.2 hostname.r3
group.web=webserver1 webserver2 webserver3 hostname1 /usr/local/bin/test.sh

# Program @myhostname = `hostname` # webserver3 #comment# The intent is to create a arrays "was" and "web" and to assign the

IO.foreach("inpit.file") do |line|

grouplit, groupinfo = line.split(".")
groupname, groupentries = groupinfo.split("=")

groupname = groupentries.split
next
end # if GROUP
targetserver, command = line.split(" ")
if targetserver == @myhostname @runcommand = true
end # if targetserver #comment# In this case I'm trying to determine if "myhostname" is in the
array "web" #comment# I've tried a number of ways to get the following to work without

if #{targetserver}.*include?* "#{@myhostname <%23%7B@myhostname>}"
####### THIS IS WHERE THE FAILURE IS @runcommand = true
end # if
end
exit
The escape #{ works in string literals only, so you probably just
wanted to write
if targetserver.include? "#{@myhostname <%23%7B@myhostname>}"
I have no idea however what you meant with *.include?* (just high
lightening, I guess).

Victor,
In ruby, a statement like
#{foo} = 'bar'
just won't work. You are trying to use "dynamic variables" (ala PHP I guess) and that simply does not work in ruby. Here is a version of your code that I think does what you are trying to do. I removed the @ sigils on the variable names ... you might need to add them back if you took this code out of a class you are working on. I also stored the group arrays in a ruby Hash object keyed by the group name. There are other ways to do this, the best one depends on your specific needs. You also had what looked to be a misspelling in the IO.foreach statement: your version was opening 'inpit.file' not 'input.file'.
# Program
#@myhostname = `hostname` # webserver3
myhostname = 'webserver3'
runcommand = false
command_to_run = nil #comment# The intent is to create a arrays "was" and "web" and to assign the values in the group statement
groups = {}
IO.foreach("input.file") do |line|
if line =~ /^#/ || line.chomp.length == 0
next
end # if line
if line.upcase =~ /^GROUP/
grouplit, groupinfo = line.split(".")
groupname, groupentries = groupinfo.split("=")
groups[groupname] = groupentries.split
next
end # if GROUP
targetserver, command_to_run = line.split(" ")
if targetserver == myhostname
runcommand = true
end # if targetserver #comment# In this case I'm trying to determine if "myhostname" is in the array "web" #comment# I've tried a number of ways to get the following to work without success
end
if groups['web'].include?(myhostname)
####### THIS IS WHERE THE FAILURE IS
runcommand = true
end
puts "groups: #{groups.inspect}"
puts "run command: #{runcommand}, command: #{command_to_run}"
exit
