How to redirect output of query result txt file into tar

srinu.kadem · 05-08-2014, 01:37 AM

Dear Team,

Please let me know in signle command, whether I can archive the result of query.

For example, I want below series of sequence commands in one liner command.

-bash-3.2$ ls -ltr > output.txt
-bash-3.2$ tar -zcvf output.txt.tar.gz output.txt
output.txt
-bash-3.2$ rm -fr output.txt

Thanks in advance

1) man tar
2) search for /standard input
3) i think it would be sth like: command | tar arch.tar.gz - (where the last "-" means: read from standard input)

For a single file tar is not needed, so:

Code:

ls -ltr | gzip >output.gz
