You can use awk
command is:
$ var1=`echo "auto.deploy.active = yes" | awk -F"=" '{print $1}'` ; echo $var1
auto.deploy.active
$ var2=`echo "auto.deploy.active = yes" | awk -F"=" '{print $2}'` ; echo $var2
yes
With bash and Parameter Expansion:
string="auto.deploy.active = yes"
value="${string#*= }"
