Unmatched SSID & password












0














I'm working on script which will be use for connecting to wifi.

Specification:

- Don't use network-manager.

- Some SSID & Password is stored in file.

- If SSID is matched than get the password from file & connect to wifi.

- File format is like this:



SSID:CoreFragment
Passphrase:WiFi1234
SSID:CoreFragment_5G
Passphrase:WiFi1234
SSID:Aleph_inCar
Passphrase:1234567890


Function for searching SSID:



search_ssid(){
sudo service network-manager stop
rfkill unblock wifi
sudo ifconfig wlp2s0 up
sudo iwlist wlp2s0 scan | grep SSID
for ssid_name in $(sudo iwlist scan 2>/dev/null |grep ESSID | sed 's/.*ESSID:"(.*)".*/1/')
do
echo "$ssid_name";
done
}


Here is my function for getting SSID and passphrase:



ssid_password(){
ssid=$(grep -oP '^SSID:K.+' list_wifi.txt)
for ssid in $(grep -oP '^SSID:K.+' list_wifi.txt)
do
if [ $ssid == $ssid_name ]; then
echo "SSID found...";
passphrase=$(awk '/Passphrase/ && match($0,/CoreFragment Passphrase:[0-9a-zA-Z]+/){val=substr($0,RSTART,RLENGTH);sub(/.*:/,"",val);print val;val=""}' list_wifi.txt)
echo "$passphrase";
fi
done
}


There is 2 problems:

1) ssid_password is not working properly.

2) getting passphrase from file is also not working.

Where is the problem in my function?
