I  this short article, we would like to show how to convert text to lower case in Bash.

Quick solution:

echo "Some text here ..." | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'

 

Practical example

echo "Hi! My name is John." | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'

Example output:

hi! my name is john.

 

Alternative solutions

echo "Hi! My name is John." | awk '{print tolower($0)}'
echo "Hi! My name is John." | sed -e 's/\(.*\)/\L\1/'

Example output:

hi! my name is john.
