I've searched stackExchange and I cannot find a result so here we go.



I am attempting to use a grep command to search a file for a particular substring and if it finds that substring, I want it to store the line that contains it in the variable presented. Assuming my code is as follows



schemas="schemas.txt"
schema_name= ( 'cut -d' ' -f2 databases.txt )
line=( `grep ^$schema_name $schemas` )
echo $line


my output is people which is the substring that $schemas_name holds currently.



Can anyone point me in the right direction? I apologize if this question seems like it's been asked before but I can't find it anywhere.



Important Note: people is the first word in the line that I am trying to allocate and store in the variable line
