Defining sed command in a groovy string












1















I am trying to create this as a groovy string:



sed 's/.*value="([^"]*)".*/1n/g'


In groovy I have tried:



def sedCommand = "sed 's/.*value="([^"]*)".*/1n/g'"


but it gives : Groovy:unexpected char: '' @...



I have tried various quotation, back slashing etc. but it keeps complaining.



Eventually the sed expression will be used like this:



Process process = [ 'bash', '-c', "curl -k --silent -X GET --insecure --silent $URL | hxselect '#token' | sed 's/.*value="([^"]*)".*/1n/g' " ].execute()


Any suggestions?

  • you have to escape with ` ` each ` ` and ` " ` chars in the string. or escape just / in the regular expression declaration: def sedCommand = "sed 's/" + /.*value="([^"]*)".*/1n/ + "/g'"

You may use a slashy string where you only need to escape forward slashes and keep the rest as is:



def sedCommand = /sed 's/.*value="([^"]*)".*/1n/g'/


It will represent



sed 's/.*value="([^"]*)".*/1n/g'
