In this lesson, we’ll use grep
to find text patterns. We’ll also go over some of the flags that grep
has that can be combined together to make it more powerful and easier to read.
This lessons seems to break at the beginning of the video.
I am trying to grep a variable which is the output of a find command. I'm getting permission denied from the grep, but if I pass the same file directly it works. How could I solve that?
var=`find . -path ./node_modules -prune -o -path ./public -prune -o -type f -name "*.scss" -print`
grep "string" `$var`
Any tips?
Strange, the grep command is only showing me 1 or 2 results when I invoke it on a keyword list with tons of results. My Keyword text file has hundreds of results containing what I invoke grep to find in it though. How could that be?
