I want to copy one file into many directory. My path structure is like above.
folder1-> anotherfolder -> **here I want to copy my file**
folder2-> anotherfolder -> **here I want to copy my file**
folder3-> anotherfolder -> **here I want to copy my file**
folder4-> anotherfolder -> **here I want to copy my file**
folder1,2,3,4 is in the same directory. But the names are the folders are not sequential.
I can get the name of folders with this code but after that I don't know how can I get into the folders and copy my file.
for d in */ ; do
echo "$d"
done
This code gives me the folders name in directory. After this step how can I get into folders and copy my file?
First try (has limitations)
for d in $(find . -maxdepth 2 -type d | grep "/.*/"); do
cp file "$d"
done
LIMITATIONS:
- No spaces/slashes/glob characters in the dir-names
Second try (cleaner, thanks to gniourf_gniourf)
find . -maxdepth 2 -path './*/*' -type d -exec cp file {} \;
