In order to compare Strings in Bash Scripts you can make use of the = operator or using == operator,
Example 1: Using = operator% cat bash_example.sh
#!/bin/bash
#Bash Compare Strings
StringA="HelloWorld"
StringB="HelloWorld"
if [ "$StringA" = "$StringB" ]; then
echo "String A is equal to String B"
else
echo "String A is not equal to String B"
fi
Output:
String A is equal to String B
Example 1: Using == operator (pattern matching)#!/bin/bash
#Bash Compare Strings
StringX="Java"
StringY="PHP"
if [[ "$StringX" == "$StringY" ]]; then
echo "String X is equal to String Y"
else
echo "String X is not equal to String Y"
fi
Output:
String X is not equal to String Y
