|
|
|
> Find files or directories under the given directory tree, recursively.
|
|
|
|
- Find files by extension:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -name '{{*.ext}}'`
|
|
|
|
- Find files by matching multiple patterns:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -name '{{*pattern_1*}}' -or -name '{{*pattern_2*}}'`
|
|
|
|
- Find directories matching a given name:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -type d -name {{*lib*}}`
|
|
|
|
- Find files matching path pattern:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -path '{{**/lib/**/*.ext}}'`
|
|
|
|
- Run a command for each file, use {} within the command to access the filename:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -name '{{*.ext}}' -exec {{wc -l {} }}\;`
|
|
|
|
- Find files modified in the last 24-hour period:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -mtime {{-1}}`
|
|
|
|
- Find files using case insensitive name matching, of a certain size:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -size {{+500k}} -size {{-10M}} -iname '{{*.TaR.gZ}}'`
|
|
|
|
- Delete files by name, older than 180 days:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -name '{{*.ext}}' -mtime {{+180}} -delete`
|
|
|
|
- Find files matching a given pattern, while excluding specific paths:
|
|
|
|
`find {{root_path}} -name '{{*.py}}' -not -path '{{*/site-packages/*}}'`
