I have,



my.sh



while IFS= read -r line ; do
v1="$line";
t1=`echo $line | awk -F= '{print $2}'`
echo "$t1"
done < $1


sample.txt



say=hello
test=0 0/15 * * * ?
logs=valuelogs


Output :



[root@centos gen]# ./my.sh test.txt
hello
0 0/15 hello.txt 2.txt tmp.log my.sh sample.txt test.sh test.txt hello.txt
2.txt tmp.log my.sh sample.txt test.sh test.txt hello.txt 2.txt tmp.log
my.sh sample.txt test.sh test.txt ?
valuelogs


Here we get bad output due to executed command like echo * & its give list of file on current directory as output.



Is there any alternative solution for same ?

The problem is in the echo $line inside the back quotes. Double quote the variable to prevent wildcard expansion:



t1=`echo "$line" | awk -F= '{print $2}'`

You can rewrite your shell script as



awk -F= '{print $2}' "$1"


and avoid all the shell handling entirely (apart from the single quotes here and the $1 parameter expansion which you want anyway); or even as an AWK script



#!/usr/bin/awk -f

BEGIN { FS="=" }

{ print $2 }
