awk to search the string and count for total in a one liner [duplicate]

This question already has an answer here:




  • Count records matching pattern with Awk

    3 answers




I have logs like as given sample below, where I'm simply looking for a SUCCESS string in the log file and counting the total.



$ cat ansible.log
lnx-host01.tin.com | SUCCESS => {"changed": false, "ping": "pong"}
lnx-host02.tin.com | SUCCESS => {"changed": false, "ping": "pong"}


This is what the simple straightforward way, but I'm wondering if it can be done with awk itself as a one liner without passing to the wc command.



$ awk '/SUCCESS/{print $0}'  ansible.log | wc -l
66

OR

$ awk '/SUCCESS/' ansible.log| wc -l
66

          Here it is:



          awk 'BEGIN { count=0 } /SUCCESS/ { count++ } END { print count }' ansible.log


          Of course this would have also worked:



          grep -c SUCCESS ansible.log

            Works almost fine too. It will print an empty line instead of 0 in case of no match (then count is considered by default an empty string). So if you can garantee there's always at least one SUCCESS then it's good enough. We're not on Code Golf heh.
