Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Assistance with my Find command to identify last part of a file name and report the name found Post 303041200 by apmcd47 on Monday 18th of November 2019 04:22:51 AM

How about one of these two lines:
Code:
[ -f /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/bootstrap_cookbooks_version_* ] && echo /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/bootstrap_cookbooks_version_* | sed 's/.*version_//'
f=$(echo/var/chef/cache/cookbooks/bootstrap_cookbooks_version_*) && [ -f "$f" ] && echo ${f##*_}

The second has the advantage of using POSIX shell builtin commands.
