bash – dealing with backtics ” ` ” in mysql statement
problem :
using backticks in bash for mysql statements. e.g. :
mysql -u username -h host -e “GRANT SELECT, LOCK TABLES ON `somedatabase`.* TO ‘someuser’@'somehost’;” -p<password with no space after parameter>
would get an error :
./scriptname: line 5: somedatabase: command not found
solution :
escape () the backticks ” ` ” surround “somedatabase”
mysql -u username -h host -e “GRANT SELECT, LOCK TABLES ON `somedatabase`.* TO ‘someuser’@'somehost’;” -p<password with no space after parameter>
