Using the following I can generate the XML with updated text:

xmlstarlet ed -u 'value to change' -v newValue source.xml

But how can I make changes to the same file and save it?
I need to run xmlstarlet a couple of times to make changes in the same file.

Use `-L` (or `--inplace`) to update the file in place. – Daniel Haley Jul 24 '18 at 17:38
