With awk (tested with GNU awk, not sure if it works with other implementations)
$ cat kv.awk
/appID/ {
for (i = 1; i <= NF; i++) {
$i ~ /^port=/ && (a = $i)
$i ~ /^authenticate=/ && (b = $i)
$i ~ /^appID=/ && (c = $i)
}
print NR "\n" a, b, c
}
$ awk -v OFS='\t' -f kv.awk ip.txt
1
port=1234 authenticate=true appID=dummyAppId1
2
port=1244 authenticate=false appID=dummyAppId2
3
port=1235 authenticate=true appID=dummyAppId3
With perl
$ # note that the order is changed for second line here
$ cat ip.txt
process1 port=1234 authenticate=true appID=dummyAppId1 <some more params>
process3 port=1244 appID=dummyAppId2 authenticate=false <some more params>
process2 port=1235 authenticate=true appID=dummyAppId3 <some more params>
$ perl -lpe 's/(?=.*(port=[^ ]+))(?=.*(authenticate=[^ ]+))(?=.*(appID=[^ ]+)).*/$1\t$2\t$3/; print $.' ip.txt
1
port=1234 authenticate=true appID=dummyAppId1
2
port=1244 authenticate=false appID=dummyAppId2
3
port=1235 authenticate=true appID=dummyAppId3
(?=.*(port=[^ ]+))first capture group forport(?=.*(authenticate=[^ ]+))second capture group forauthenticateand so onprint $.for line number- To avoid partial matches, use
\bport,\bappIDetc if word boundary is enough. Otherwise, use(?<!\S)(port=[^ ]+)to restrict based on whitespace.
If you need to print only lines containing appID or any other such condition, change -lpe to -lne and change print $. to print "$.\n$_" if /appID/
