I want to insert a new line before the last occurrence of brace. My text file looks like that
"accounts":
"0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000008": "builtin": "name": "alt_bn128_pairing", "activate_at": "0x0", "pricing": "alt_bn128_pairing": "base": 100000, "pair": 80000 ,
"0x00Ea169ce7e0992960D3BdE6F5D539C955316432": "balance": "1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376"
So what I want to do is adding a new account through sed script.
Please note that the new account will be specified with a variable, something like:
"$ACCOUNT_ADDR": "balance": "1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376"

You could add a line after the occurence of "accounts",
sed "/accounts/ a
"$ACCOUNT_ADDR": "balance": "1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376i"
" file
(The " are escaped, to insert variable)
sed "s/^ }$/ "$ACCOUNT_ADDR": "balance": "1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376i" n }/g" file
Will replace your } line and print two lines.
Run sed -i ... for changing the file, in cycle:
$ cat file
"accounts":
"0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000008": "builtin": "name": "alt_bn128_pairing", "activate_at": "0x0", "pricing": "alt_bn128_pairing": "base": 100000, "pair": 80000 ,

The first solution partially works for me. However, since I need to add more than one address i repeat the command inside a for cycle, in this way I am able to iterate over all the addresses. However, this generates several replicas of the entire json, just updating the first account after the keyword "accounts", and not one unique json with the list of all the accounts.

I see, just runsed -iinstead of justsed, see my edited answer.

Every now and and then I like a sed challenge: using ACCOUNT_ADDR=1234:
sed -n -e '
x
$ i
"'"$ACCOUNT_ADDR"'": "balance":0,
2,$ p
$ x; p
' file
"accounts":
"0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000008": "builtin": "name": "alt_bn128_pairing", "activate_at": "0x0", "pricing": "alt_bn128_pairing": "base": 100000, "pair": 80000 ,
"1234": "balance":0,
"0x00Ea169ce7e0992960D3BdE6F5D539C955316432": "balance": "1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376"
This uses the x to stash the current line into the hold space to become the "previous" line in the next cycle.
As mentioned elsewhere, use sed -i to save the edits in-place
You can get the same result by reversing the file and using a simpler sed command:
temp=$(mktemp)
tac file | sed '2a
"'"$ACCOUNT_ADDR"'": "balance":0,
' | tac > "$temp" && mv "$temp" file

It also caught the fact that you had a key+value pair with no enclosing object. ☺

It looks like a json but if you read the question I specify that is a text file :)

You could add a line after the occurence of "accounts",
sed "/accounts/ a
"$ACCOUNT_ADDR": "balance": "1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376i"
" file
(The " are escaped, to insert variable)
sed "s/^ }$/ "$ACCOUNT_ADDR": "balance": "1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376i" n }/g" file
Will replace your } line and print two lines.
Run sed -i ... for changing the file, in cycle:

Every now and and then I like a sed challenge: using ACCOUNT_ADDR=1234:
sed -n -e '
x
$ i
"'"$ACCOUNT_ADDR"'": "balance":0,
2,$ p
$ x; p
' file
"accounts":
"0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000008": "builtin": "name": "alt_bn128_pairing", "activate_at": "0x0", "pricing": "alt_bn128_pairing": "base": 100000, "pair": 80000 ,
"1234": "balance":0,
"0x00Ea169ce7e0992960D3BdE6F5D539C955316432": "balance": "1606938044258990275541962092341162602522202993782792835301376"
This uses the x to stash the current line into the hold space to become the "previous" line in the next cycle.
As mentioned elsewhere, use sed -i to save the edits in-place
You can get the same result by reversing the file and using a simpler sed command:
temp=$(mktemp)
tac file | sed '2a
"'"$ACCOUNT_ADDR"'": "balance":0,
' | tac > "$temp" && mv "$temp" file

This uses the x to stash the current line into the hold space to become the "previous" line in the next cycle.
As mentioned elsewhere, use sed -i to save the edits in-place
You can get the same result by reversing the file and using a simpler sed command:
temp=$(mktemp)
tac file | sed '2a
"'"$ACCOUNT_ADDR"'": "balance":0,
' | tac > "$temp" && mv "$temp" file
