Issue
I created a script to backup database and system in separate directory, the directory will contain the system and its database. So I need to know what database the system had/use.
My whole project is using codeigniter framework, I see that database information is defined on database.php, so what Im trying to do is pulling database name into my bash script.
So far, I can only do this.
$ grep -F "['default']['database']" config/database.php
$db['default']['database'] = 'mydatabase';
I need to extract mydatabase and left out other parts, how would I do that with grep/sed/awk ?
Solution
Try this:
$ grep -F "['default']['database']" config/database.php | cut -d = -f 2- | cut -d \' -f 2
mydatabase
