Looping 'find…-type f': Getting filenames by dir/subdir, ouputing a txt with name dir_subdir_fname.txt












0















My data structure is something like:



dir1/subdir1_level1/subdir1_level2.../subdir1_leveln
dir1/subdir2_level1/subdir2_level2.../subdir2_leveln
...


Which means that the levels I'm working with are not structured properly, nevertheless.
I managed to accomplish my objective of getting the filename according to the first 2 levels of the path, and output them to a text file named dirn_subdirn_fname.txt with:



find dir1/subdir1 -type f -printf "%fn">dir1_subdir1_fname.txt


But I was wondering if there was a way to Iterate this process across a list of several dir/subdir's



edit: I found a way to do the first part:



#!/bin/bash

shopt -s dotglob nullglob

topdir= './Dir1'

for subdir in "$topdir"; do
find "$subdir" -type f -printf "%fn"
done

  • Probably something like for pathname in dir1/*/ ; do find "$pathname" -type f > "$pathname"_fname.txt; done ? Or find dir1/ -type f -exec sh -c 'echo "$1" > "$(basename "$1" )"_fname.txt' sh {} ; ?
