I am trying to replace the following string with another one from a file which contains few lines.



"schema" : "AAAAA",
TO
"schema" : "BBBBB",



Currently, I am doing the following command to get the corresponding line with "schema"



currentSchema=cat test.json | grep schema | awk 'print $3'



It will give me the value "AAAAA",



I would like to replace AAAAA with BBBBB



I used the following command



sed -e 's/$currentSchema/BBBBB/p' test.json



However, it is not able to replace in the same file.



Appreciate your kind help on this.
