@iyerusad Thanks, also can you add a func for add new variable?

You can call "newvar=somevalue" >> file.txt to append new string to file. But no, not updating at this time.

cat << 'EOF' > /usr/local/bin/setProperty

#!/bin/bash
#version: 0.2

  exit 1

if [ -z "$3" ] && [ -z "$setPropertyFile" ]; then
  echo "No file provided or setPropertyFile is not set, exiting..."
  exit 1
fi

if [ "$setPropertyFile" ] && [ "$3" ]; then
    echo "setPropertyFile variable is set AND filename in comamnd! Use only or the other. Exiting..."
    exit 1

    echo "File in command NOT FOUND!"
    exit 1

I've modified your script to reflect the requirements mentioned above
@iyerusad @Kolyall

Can you explain about the scripts with details
