I want to call a txt file in bash and be able to get the values of certain variables as displayed in the text file.
For example the text file appears as follows
TXT File:
First_Name=John
Last_Name=Doe
Age=43
Home_State=NY
Link=/home/${DEST}/JohnDoe
DEST will be defined in the bash script and therefore I dont want linke just to be "home/${DEST}/JohnDoe" I want Link to have the right value of DEST
After the variables are assigned in the bash script, the following should be true if DEST=workers/basicinformation
INPUT:
echo $First_Name
echo $Last_Name
echo $Age
echo $Home_State
echo $Link
OUTPUT:
John
Doe
43
NY
/home/workers/basicinformation/JohnDoe
