[SOLVED] egrep to print output on the same line

Issue

I am running a command and filtering out multiple words using egrep but output is showing up in multiple lines, is there a way i can get the output in a single line with particular set of matched words.

egrep -n "name|recovery"

currently getting output as

6:    "name": "7660",
27:      "recovery": "2020-08-04",
40:    "name": "7667708",
61:      "recovery": "2020-08-03",
74:    "name": "7660271",
95:      "recovery": "2020-08-02",

Required output

1:    "name": "7660", "recovery": "2020-08-04"
2:    "name": "7667708", recovery": "2020-08-03"
3:    "name": "7660271", "recovery": "2020-08-02"

Solution

You can pipe several commands to achieve that.

<<your command>> | cut -d: -f2- | sed '{N;s/,\n/,/;}' | grep -n '^'
