fix: remove hostname from uname output in OS detection

Type of change

• Bug fix
• Feature
• Documentation update

Description

Using $(uname -a | awk '{$2=""; print $0}') instead of just uname -a helps remove the hostname from the output. since hostname can vary between systems it may lead to incorrect OS detection. By stripping out the hostname case statement accurately matches the relevant OS identifiers.

In my system script not work properly because my hostname is "vaishakh" , because it contains "ish" the case identify my linux device as ios device and ani-cli failed to play the video.

  check-no-awk:
    name: No Awk Allowed
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v4
    - name: verify that noone added awk
      run: '! grep awk "./ani-cli"'

awk is frowned upon. I would probably suggest cut something like uname -a | cut -d ' ' -f 1,3- at first blush does the job better even than awk since it doesn't leave two spaces in the output

@HirschBerge is exactly right. We have a no awk policy over here

[port19x]

See my suggestions for how to get rid of the awk dependency.

Your change itself is well reasoned and a good contribution
