Re: How to remove a variable from a folder having lots of pm file in it using a command

find lib -type f -name '*.pm' -exec \
  perl -i~ -pe's/addFieldsToSolrDocuments\([^,]*,[^,]*\K,[^,]*//' {} +
[download]

This creates a backup of each file foo.pm -> foo.pm~. Be sure to review the differences if any. It's not very precise.

(You can combine the two lines by removing the "\".)
