drive_search.sh Script

Overview

The drive_search.sh script allows users to search for or extract specific key information types (e.g., phone numbers, URLs, email addresses, IPs, usernames) from files within a directory.

Usage

./drive_search.sh <operation_type> <key_information_type>

Parameters:

• operation_type:

  • 0 for searching files that may contain the specified key information.
  • 1 for extracting the specified key information from all files.

• key_information_type: Specify the type of key information to search for. Valid options are:

  • phone
  • url
  • email
  • ip
  • username

How It Works

1. The script first checks for the correct number of arguments.
2. It defines regex patterns for different types of key information.
3. The script ensures that there are searchable files in the directory.
4. Depending on the operation_type:
   • The script either searches files for the specified pattern.
   • Or extracts and displays the specified pattern from the contents of the files.

Test Cases

1. Search for files containing phone numbers:

Command:

./drive_search.sh 0 phone

Output: (Include a screenshot of the output here)

2. Extract email addresses from all files:

Command:

./drive_search.sh 1 email

Output: (Include a screenshot of the output here)

Troubleshooting

If you encounter the following error:

./drive_search.sh: line 23: syntax error near unexpected token `$'in\r''
'/drive_search.sh: line 23: `case $operation in

This suggests that the script has Windows-style line endings. To fix this, you can use the dos2unix tool:

dos2unix ./drive_search.sh

Note:

Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to execute the script. If not, you can make the script executable using the command:

chmod +x drive_search.sh
