Extracting version number from a filename

where XXX.XX is a version number and I need the version number only. How to do it in linux? I have this code:

#!/bin/bash current_ver=$(find /mnt/builds/current -name '*.run'|awk -F/ '') 

So this gives me just the name of the file correctly (minus the location, which I don't want). But how do I only get the XXX.XX version number into a variable such as $version

You actually don't need any external tools. You can do this entirely within bash, by chopping variables according to patterns..

[ghoti@pc ~]$ name="installer-x86_64-XXX.XX-diagnostic.run" [ghoti@pc ~]$ vers=$; echo $vers x86_64-XXX.XX-diagnostic.run [ghoti@pc ~]$ vers=$; echo $vers XXX.XX-diagnostic.run [ghoti@pc ~]$ vers=$; echo $vers XXX.XX [ghoti@pc ~]$ 

Or if you prefer, you can chop off pieces right-hand-side first:

[ghoti@pc ~]$ name="installer-x86_64-XXX.XX-diagnostic.run" [ghoti@pc ~]$ vers=$; echo $vers installer-x86_64-XXX.XX [ghoti@pc ~]$ vers=$; echo $vers XXX.XX [ghoti@pc ~]$ 

Of course, if you want to use external tools, that's fine too.

[ghoti@pc ~]$ name="installer-x86_64-XXX.XX-diagnostic.run" [ghoti@pc ~]$ vers=$(awk -F- '' <<<"$name") [ghoti@pc ~]$ echo $vers XXX.XX [ghoti@pc ~]$ vers=$(sed -ne 's/-[^-]*$//;s/.*-//;p' <<<"$name") [ghoti@pc ~]$ echo $vers XXX.XX [ghoti@pc ~]$ vers=$(cut -d- -f3 <<<"$name") [ghoti@pc ~]$ echo $vers XXX.XX [ghoti@pc ~]$
