Using variable with the sed command

Navigation

I have the following occurrence: 

DirUpload=/var/log
find $DirUpload | sed 's/$DirUpload//g'

The question is, how to use variable along with sed?

According to the response from SOen : / p> 

DirUpload=/var/log
find $DirUpload | sed "s|$DirUpload\/||g"
  • Use double quotes to expand the variables
  • Use a separator other than / (in the example: | )

Just use double quotes rather than simple quotes: 

  DirUpload=/var/log
  find $DirUpload | sed "s/$DirUpload//g"
