I have crafted this sed
command which looks to be working fine, only it's being applied to all the files in my directory :
find . -type f -name '*.js' -not -path './node_modules/*' -exec sed -i .bak -E '
1i\
const env = require('\''env-var'\'');
s/(^|[^[:alnum:]_])process\.env\.([[:alnum:]_] ) \|\| ([[:alnum:]_] )($|[^[:alnum:]_])/\1env.get('\''\2'\'').default('\''\3'\'')\4/g
s/(^|[^[:alnum:]_])process\.env\.([[:alnum:]_] )($|[^[:alnum:]_])/\1env.get('\''\2'\'')\3/g
' {} \;
I wish to apply those transformations only to the files which match this grep command :
grep -r "process\.env\." --exclude-dir=node_modules
I tried using the pipe but I can't make the two working together. What's the right way to handle it?
EDIT: I tried this
➜ app-service git:(chore/adding-env-example) ✗ grep -r "process\.env\." --exclude-dir=node_modules | sed -i .bak -E '
1i\
const env = require('\''env-var'\'');
s/(^|[^[:alnum:]_])process\.env\.([[:alnum:]_] ) \|\| ([[:alnum:]_] )($|[^[:alnum:]_])/\1env.get('\''\2'\'').default('\''\3'\'')\4/g
s/(^|[^[:alnum:]_])process\.env\.([[:alnum:]_] )($|[^[:alnum:]_])/\1env.get('\''\2'\'')\3/g
' {} \;
sed: {}: No such file or directory
I want only the files containing process.env.SOMETHING
to be edited.

Work with pipes. xargs
comes handy:
find ... -print |
xargs -d '\n' grep -l 'regex' |
xargs -d '\n' sed 'stuff'

Suggesting to reverse order of commands. sed
on filtered list of files.
Files filter is combination of grep
filter on find
filter: grep -l "process\.env\." $(find . -type f -name '*.js' -not -path './node_modules/*')
.
sed -i .bak -E '
1i\
const env = require('\''env-var'\'');
s/(^|[^[:alnum:]_])process\.env\.([[:alnum:]_] ) \|\| ([[:alnum:]_] )($|[^[:alnum:]_])/\1env.get('\''\2'\'').default('\''\3'\'')\4/g
s/(^|[^[:alnum:]_])process\.env\.([[:alnum:]_] )($|[^[:alnum:]_])/\1env.get('\''\2'\'')\3/g
' $(grep -l "process\.env\." $(find . -type f -name '*.js' -not -path './node_modules/*'))
