Free extract data from text file software for linux

Agata Report is a cross-platform database reporting tool with graph generation and a query tool that allows you to get data from PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, Oracle, DB2, MS-SQL, Informix, InterBase, Sybase, or Frontbase and export that data as PostScript, plain text, HTML, XML, PDF, or spreadsheet (CSV) formats through its graphical interface.

You can also define subtotals, levels and a grand total for the report, merge the data into a document, generate address labels, or even generate a complete ER-diagram from your database.

libextractor is a library that is used to extract meta-data from files of arbitrary type. It is designed to use helper-libraries to perform the actual extraction, and to be trivially extendable by linking against external extractors for additional file types. libextractor is part of the GNU project. Our official GNU website can be found at http://www.gnu.org/software/libextractor/. libextractor can be downloaded from this site or the GNU mirrors.
The goal is to provide developers of file-sharing networks or WWW-indexing bots with a universal library to obtain simple keywords to match against queries. libextractor contains a shell-command "extract" that, similar to the well-known "file" command, can extract meta-data from a file an print the results to stdout.
Currently, libextractor supports the following formats: HTML, PDF, PS, OLE2 (DOC, XLS, PPT), OpenOffice (sxw), StarOffice (sdw), DVI, MAN, MP3 (ID3v1 and ID3v2), OGG, WAV, JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIFF, DEB, RPM, TAR(.GZ), ZIP, ELF, REAL, RIFF (AVI), MPEG, QT and ASF.
Also, various additional MIME types are detected.
libextractor is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
Enhancements:
- This release fixes various build problems and a crash with recent versions of libgsf.
vAn incomplete manual was added.

Data::Report provides a framework for flexible reporting.

Data::Report is a flexible, plugin-driven reporting framework. It makes it easy to define reports that can be produced in text, HTML and CSV. Textual ornaments like extra empty lines, dashed lines, and cell lines can be added in a way similar to HTML style sheets.

The Data::Report framework consists of three parts:
The plugins

Plugins implement a specific type of report. Standard plugins provided are Data::Report::Plugin::Text for textual reports, Data::Report::Plugin::Html for HTML reports, and Data::Report::Plugin::Csv for CSV (comma-separated) files.
Users can, and are encouraged, to develop their own plugins to handle different styles and types of reports.

The base class
The base class Data::Report::Base implements the functionality common to all reporters, plus a number of utility functions the plugins can use.

The factory
The actual Data::Report module is a factory that creates a reporter for a given report type by selecting the appropriate plugin and returning an instance thereof.

MDF audio extracter project is a tool to extract audio data from MDF/MDS audio cd images to wav or raw files. Tracks will be extracted to the current directory and named track_[num].wav or track_[num].raw. Output can also be redirected to stdout to allow the audio data to be fed to an encoder or player directly.
You need both a .mds and .mdf file to be able to extract tracks. The .mds file contains the information about the tracks, while the .mdf file contains the actual data. They usually should have the same name (except for the extension ofcourse). This is case sensitive, so for example FileName is not the same as filename.
Usage: mdfextract [options] file.mds
Options:
-i output mds info instead of extracting
-r extract raw track data
-s output to stdout instead of file
-t < num > extract single track (num > 0)
-q quiet, no output
Version restrictions:
- Probably does not work on big endian archs.

The layer extract plug-in is a Gimp plug-in that creates a new image/film by periodically extracting layers from another image.

It takes one interval (number of sequent layers) every period. The number of periods can be limited.

THC-ManipulateData can search data on a harddisk/partition/file, extract the part you are interested in, and write it back after you modified it.
Useful to find and modify really all unencrypted Logfiles on a system. Does everything in RAW mode, and hence does not tamper a/m/ctimes.
It comes with 4 tools:
Syntax of search_data: ./search_data [-i] [-d] blockdevice searchstring
-i - the only parameter which is optional. This does the
search case insensitive.
-d - dump the found occasions in hex
blockdevice - a blockdevice you want to search for data. It need
not to be a blockdevice, it can be anything, but normaly
you use it on these.
searchstring - a string you want to search for
The blockdevice is searched for the occurance of searchstring, which are printed with location when found.
Example: ./search_data -i /dev/hda3 "connect from 10.0.0.1"
Output looks like:
found at 234600: connect from 10.0.0.1/unresolved (UNKNOWN)
Syntax of read_data: ./read_data blockdevice start_address no_of_bytes
blockdevice - a blockdevice you want to get your data from. It need not to be a blockdevice, it can be anything, but normaly you use it on these.
start_address - from which offset of the blockdevice you want to extract data from
no_of_bytes - how many bytes of data starting at the start_address you want to extract in a file.
The output filename is always START_ADDRESS.NO_OF_BYTES
Example: ./read_data /dev/hda3 234653 1024
writes 1024 bytes of data from /dev/hda3 starting from offset 234653 to the file "234653.1024"
Syntax of write_data: ./write_data blockdevice filename
blockdevice - a blockdevice you want to write your data to. It need not to be a blockdevice, it can be anything, but normaly you use it on these.
filename - the data you want to write to the blockdevice. For error protection, the location where it is put it gathered from the filename - as you can see above from read_data. If you modified the data extracted with read_data into the file, it may not have a different size than defined in the filename! The data in filename is written to the blockdevice
Example: ./write_data /dev/hda3 234653.1024
writes 1024 bytes of data to /dev/hda3 starting at offset 234653 with the
data read from the file "234653.1024"
Syntax of replace_data: ./replace_data [-i] blockdevice searchstring replacestring
-i - the only parameter which is optional. This does the search case insensitive.
blockdevice - a blockdevice you want to search for data. It need not to be a blockdevice, it can be anything, but normaly you use it on these.
searchstring - a string you want to search for
replacestring - the string you want to replace the found entries with
The blockdevice is searched for the occurance of searchstring, and is then replaced.
Example: ./replace_data -i /dev/hda3 "connect from 1.0.0.1" "Remap table failure "
Output looks like:
found at 234600 - replaced
Enhancements:
- fixed a bug in read/write_data, seeks over 2gb now succeed
- added -d for hexdump display of occasions found in search_data

WebService::GoogleHack::Text is a Perl module that implements some basic text processing such as parsing data etc.

SYNOPSIS
use WebService::GoogleHack::Text;

#create an object of type Text

my $text = GoogleHack::Text->new();

# returns an hash words

%results=$text->getWords("file location");

# returns an hash of 3 word sentences

%results=$text->getSentences("file location", 3);

# this function reads the configuration file

%results=$text->readConfig("location of configuration file");

#removes HTML tags

%results=$text->removeHTML("string");

This is a simple Text processing package which aids GoogleHack and Rate modules. Given a file of words, it retreives the words in the file and stores it in a simple hash format. In addition, given a file of text, it can also form n word sentences.

Parse::RandGen::Regexp is a Perl module for regular expression Condition element.

Regexp is a Condition element that matches the given compiled regular expression. For picking random data, the regular expression is parsed into its component Subrules, Literals, CharClasses, etc.... Therefore, the pick functionality for a regular expression is ultimately the same as the pick functionality of a Rule (including the limitations w/r to greediness - see Rule).

Regexp is also useful as a standalone class. It supports captures (named and indexed), which can be referenced in a call to the pick() function to force the captures to match the specified data, while leaving the rest of the data to be generated randomly.

METHODS

new

Creates a new Regexp. The first argument (required) is the regular expression element (e.g. qr/foo(bar|baz)+d{1,10}/). All other arguments are named pairs.

element

Returns the Regexp element (i.e. the compiled regular expression itself).

numCaptures

Returns the number of captures (e.g. $1, $2, ...$n) in the regular expression.

nameCapture

Give names to capture numbers for the regular expression. The arguments to this function are capture# => "name" pairs (e.g. nameCapture(1=>"directory", 2=>"file", 3=>"extension")).

capture

Returns the Rule object that represents the specified capture. The capture can be specified by number or by name (the name is set by the nameCapture() function).

pick

Randomly generate data (text) that matches (or does not) this regular expression.
Takes a "match" boolean argument that specifies whether to match the regular expression or deliberately not match it.

Also takes a "captures" hash argument that has pairs of capture numbers (or names) and their desired value. This allows the generated data to have user-specified constraints while allowing the rest of the regular expression to choose random data. If "match" is false, the user-specified "captures" values are still used (which may cause the data to match even though it was not supposed to).

Example:
$re->pick(match=>1,
captures=>{ 1=>"http", 2=>"www", 3=>"yahoo", 4=>"com" });
