tsv-filter: Filter for non-empty fields.
$ tsv-filter --not-empty ${column_number} ${path-to-tsv_file}
try on your machine
The command "tsv-filter --not-empty ${column_number} ${path-to-tsv_file}" is used to filter a TSV (Tab-Separated Values) file based on the condition that a specific column should not be empty.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "tsv-filter" is the name of the command or program being run.
- "--not-empty" is an option or flag that specifies the filter condition. In this case, it's stating that the column should not be empty.
- "${column_number}" is a placeholder for the specific column number you want to apply the filter on. You need to replace this placeholder with the actual column number you want to filter. For example, if you want to filter on the second column, you would replace "${column_number}" with "2".
- "${path-to-tsv_file}" is a placeholder for the path or location of the TSV file you want to filter. You need to replace this placeholder with the actual path to the TSV file you want to filter. For example, if your TSV file is located in the "/home/user/documents" directory and is named "data.tsv", you would replace "${path-to-tsv_file}" with "/home/user/documents/data.tsv".
By executing this command with the correct column number and file path, it will process the TSV file and output only the rows where the specified column is not empty, effectively filtering the data based on that condition.
