CIDALIAS(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation CIDALIAS(1)NAMEcidalias - view alias definitions in the NCID alias, blacklist, and
whitelist files
SYNOPSIScidalias [--help|-h] [--man|-m] [--version|-V]
cidalias [--alias |-a <file>]
[--blacklist |-b <file>]
[--whitelist |-w <file>]
[--format |-f <0-2>]
[--delimiter |-d <text>]
[--strip-one |-1]
DESCRIPTION
The cidalias tool displays aliases in the alias file in one of three
different formats: raw, human readable, and delimited.
Options
-h, --help
Displays the help message and exits.
-m, --man
Displays the manual page and exits.
-V, --version
Displays the version and exits.
-f <0-2>, --format <0-2>
Determines the output format used.
Output format 0 displays the alias file as-is. The blacklist and
whitelist files are ignored.
Output format 1 displays the aliases in human readable text and
includes blacklist and whitelist info if applicable.
Output format 2 displays the alias, blacklist, and whitelist
files with field delimiters for easy parsing by another program.
Uses options -d|--delimiter and -1|--strip-one.
The default output format is 1 (human readable).
-d <text>, --delimiter <text>
Used when output format is 2 (delimited). Fields will be
delimited by <text>.
For pipe-delimited output, surround the pipe symbol with single
or double quotes: '|' or "|".
For tab-delimited output, specify only the letter "t".
For comma-delimited output, fields containing an embedded comma
will automatically be surrounded by double-quotes.
Default delimiter is a comma (",").
-1, --strip-one
Used when output format is 2 (delimited). If a number is exactly
11 digits and it begins with "1", strip the "1" before
outputting it. This is to facilitate consistent sorting of the
output for 10 digit numbers.
-a <file>, --alias <file>
Sets the name of the alias file.
Default:/usr/local/usr/local/etc/ncid/ncidd.alias
-b <file>, --blacklist <file>
Sets the name of the blacklist file.
Default:/usr/local/usr/local/etc/ncid/ncidd.blacklist
-w <file>, --whitelist <file>
Sets the name of the whitelist file
Default:/usr/local/usr/local/etc/ncid/ncidd.whitelist
EXAMPLES
Output as tab-delimited, changing 11-digit numbers beginning with "1"
to be 10-digits:
cidalias-f 2 -d t -1
Output as pipe-delimited, changing 11-digit numbers beginning with "1"
to be 10-digits, then sorting numerically on the phone number column:
cidalias-f 2 -d '|' -1 | sort -t '|' -k3,3 -n
