Replace String “Development” with “Staging” or “Production” using SED
I am trying to replace the string
: 'development'
with
: 'production'
using sed.
I tried a few options including:
sed -i "s|: 'development'|: 'staging'|g" index.php
but without any luck. Output:
sed: 1: "index.php": command i expects followed by text
Can someone help?
command-line sed

You don’t need to escape single quotes inside double quotes, see this answer of mine:
Enclosing characters in double quotes preserves the literal value of all characters within the quotes, with the exception of
$,`,, and, when history expansion is enabled,!.
Thus, these work:
sed -i "s/: 'development'/: 'staging'/g" index.php
sed -i "s|: 'development'|: 'staging'|g" index.php
sed -i 's|: '''development'''|: '''staging'''|g' index.php
