    text
    copied!<p>I have this function in my Bash script</p> <pre><code> if [ $numberOne -gt 10 ] then echo "$numberOne has occurred over 10 times" echo "email me numberOne" elif [ $numberTwo -gt 4 ] then echo "$numberTwo has occurred over 4 times" echo "email me numberTwo" elif [ $numberThree -gt 4 ] then echo "$numberThree has occurred over 4 times" echo "email me numberThree" elif [ $numberFour -gt 5 ] then echo "$numberFour has occurred over 5 times" echo "email me numberFour" else echo "nothing found yet" exit fi } </code></pre> <p><strong>Info</strong>: I am port checking. I run a script every minute. When a port is found to be used I write it to a file and then read the file. The number of times it's found equates to minutes. 4 times is 4 minutes, I want to know if the port is active more that a number of minutes.</p> <p><strong>What I want to do:</strong></p> <p>3 numbers will populate a file. At some point one of them will be present more than 4 times and then the rest will also appear. At that point I want an alert when the first of them occurs or [all of them after the first occurrence]. Ideally the alert will be like this: "NumberOne has been open for 4 minutes". And after 1 minute it will be "5 minutes"-until I stop it or a threshold is reached, I don't know yet.</p> <p>The problem: The problem here is that when NumberOne occurs more than 10 times AND NumberTwo occurs 4 times after that it only echoes NumberTwo.</p> <p>I thought I could use <code>continue</code> after each <code>then</code>, but I can't!</p> <p>Also: my NumberOne variable. <code>NumberOne=$(grep -wc "port=51555" monitor.txt)</code></p>
