sed to remove single and double quotes at the same time

Question

I am trying to remove single quotes and double quotes from a file. Can I do it in a single sed command?

I am trying :

sed \'s/\\\"//g;s/\\\'//g\' tx         


        

Answer 1

To remove single quotes, simply use double quotes for the regex in sed:

sed -e "s/'//g" ./new_file.csv

Answer 2

Another possibility would be to use tr:

tr -d \'\" file

Answer 3

I solved it (in Centos 7) by removing surrounding quotes all together like:

sed -i s/\'//g file;sed -i s/\"//g file 

Answer 4

You can use commands below

sed "s/'/ /g" file.txt > newfile.txt
sed 's/\"//g' newfile.txt > Required_file.txt

Required_file.txt is the final output.

Answer 5

You cannot escape a single quote inside a pair of singe quotes in shell. Escaping double quotes is allowed though. Following sed command should work:

sed "s/['\"]//g" file

Answer 6

Try this one instead :

sed -e 's|["'\'']||g' txt
