How to do a recursive find/replace of a string with awk or sed?

Question

How do I find and replace every occurrence of:

subdomainA.example.com

with

subdomainB.example.com

in eve

Answer 1

Simplest way to replace (all files, directory, recursive)

find . -type f -not -path '*/\.*' -exec sed -i 's/foo/bar/g' {} +

Note: Sometimes you might need to ignore some hidden files i.e. .git, you can use above command.

If you want to include hidden files use,

find . -type f  -exec sed -i 's/foo/bar/g' {} +

In both case the string foo will be replaced with new string bar
