Thanks for your replay actually i am writing one script which will read the contents of file
Ex:
Test.env

'This will be stored in any location in server
username=abc
password=xyz

if i am using the find command below its working

grep "username" <filelocation>/Test.env | cut -d = -f1

I am getting the O/p as abc

But i want the same using shell script.

4

put these in to a file, and invoke it .. it should run !

What is the different thing you are trying for ?

5

the file location may be varied from one server to the other server so i have to find the location using find command and whatever the o/p i am getting it should be appended to the following command .

grep "username" <Output Of Find Comman>/clarify.env | cut -d = -f1

6

ok, in bash you can use like this...

filepath=$(find . -name 'clarify.env');

grep "username" $filepath | cut -d = -f2
