  • Bash Error "Unexpected token near done"

    Hi!

    I wrote the following little bash script:
    Code:
    echo Processing...
    
    inputDir="/home/j490h/localhome/fastq/"
    output_folder="/home/j490h/localhome/fastq/textfiles/"
    
    for input_FASTQfile in `ls ${inputDir}/*fastq*`
    do
            filename_only=`basename ${input_FASTQfile}`
    	echo ${filename_only}
    	zcat ${filename_only} | sed -n '1~4p' > ${output_folder}/${filename_only}_ReadIDs.txt
    done
    
    output_folder2="/home/j490h/localhome/fastq/textfiles/combined_textfiles/"
    trimmed="trimmed"
    shuffled="shuffled"
    reconstructed="reconstructed"
    
    for file1 in `ls ${output_folder}/*txt*`
    do
    	for file2 in `ls ${output_folder}/*txt*` 
    	do
    		if [ ${trimmed} in ${file1} & ${file2} ]
    		then 
    			cat ${file1} ${file2} > ${output_folder2}/${file1}_${file2}_combined.txt
    		elif [ ${shuffled} in ${file1} & ${file2} ]
    		then
    			cat ${file1} ${file2} > ${output_folder2}/${file1}_${file2}_combined.txt
    		elif [ ${reconstructed} in ${file1} & ${file2} ]
    		then
    			cat ${file1} ${file2} > ${output_folder2}/${file1}_${file2}_combined.txt
    		else
    			echo Invalid input FASTQfile
    	done
    done
    and I get the error:
    "Unexpected token near done" at the last two lines.
    Unfortunately, I dont know why...
    I already checked cat -v file.sh, but there do not seem to be unexpected characters or something...

    Do you have any idea?

    Greetings!

    I believe you are missing a
    fi
    line before the last two done lines

      Recent Advances in Sequencing Analysis Tools
      by seqadmin


      The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...

      Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
      by seqadmin




      The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...
