Question
How can I process files in a Linux environment?

Answer
Some of our MIKE models are capable of running in a Linux environment.

Pre- and postprocessing of the files are carried out in Windows so the following commands (from Windows) can be used for transferring files between the two environments:

scp -r {path\dir} {user}@{IP address}:{path}
Copy files from Windows PC to Linux PC using PowerShell
scp -r {user}@{IP address}:{path} {path\dir} 
Copy files from Linux PC to Windows PC using PowerShell

 

 

 

 

 


The table below contains a list of Linux commands that are frequently used for scripting and managing files. 

tar zxvf {file}.tgz
Unpack compressed files (from gzip)
tar czvf {file}.tgz  {files or directory}
Compress files or directories to tgz file

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ls
ls -lah
List files in a directory
cd {dir}
cd ..
Change directory
mv {file} {path/dir}

rm {file}
rm *
