[Level 2] File ACL...


Someone ask me about how to "Copy/Backup files with acl", there are several ways to do so.
1. use cp -p command:
# cp -p ./a.txt ./b.txt
PS.
If you copy a file from UFS to ZFS, is OK,
if you copy a file from ZFS to UFS, that will be failed.
2. use tar cp command:
# tar cp ./d.tar ./d
PS. the same problem as case 1, while you extract the file between 2 different filesystem.
3. copy acl from another file with getfacl/setfacl command on UFS:
# getfacl ./a.txt |  setfacl -f - ./b.txt
PS.
You can use above command on UFS, not on ZFS.
4. copy file with zfs send/recv command:
# zfs snapshot poolname/fssource@sname

# zfs send -R poolname/fssource@sname | zfs recv -dF poolname/fstarget

Wish this helps.

[Level 2] Shell Interactive With Zenity Episode 5 -- list

Image
If you want to give a list for user to choose, you can use the option "--list". The command synopsis as below: SYNOPSIS      zenity  --list [--title=title] [--window-icon=path] [--width=width]    [--height=height] [--timeout=seconds] [--column=text] [--checklist]       [--radiolist] [--separator=character] [--multiple] [--editable] [--print-column=number] [--hide-column=number] Just like " --calendar ", if you press "ESC" key or click button "Cancel", the return code will be "1". If you select one option and click "OK", zenity will response the option and return the code will be "0".

[Level 2] iif in Python

If you want to implement iif in Python, please refer to the following sample code: #!/bin/env python def iif(b): return 'It\'s True' if b else 'It\'s False' print iif(True) print iif(False) And the following sample, guess what will you get! #!/bin/env python b = True print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' b = False print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' Result: $ ./iif.py b: Ture False The second result is "False", not "b: False". Why??? Because the prededence of string concatenation is higher than if. Therefore you need to use () to make it correct. #!/bin/env python b = True print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' b = False print 'b: %s' % ('Ture' if b else 'False') Wish this helps. regards, Stanley Huang
