I have an script which creates a folder named "data". Then it downloads a file using wget and these files (.zip format) are moved from the current directory to the folder "data". After that what I want is to unzip these files. I'm using unzip filename.zip and it works when I use it on the cmd, however I don't know why it's not working in the script.
Here is the script:
#!/bin/bash
mkdir data
wget http://187.191.75.115/gobmx/salud/datos_abiertos/datos_abiertos_covid19.zip && mv datos_abiertos_covid19.zip data && unzip datos_abiertos_covid19.zip
wget http://187.191.75.115/gobmx/salud/datos_abiertos/diccionario_datos_covid19.zip && mv diccionario_datos_covid19.zip data && unzip diccionario_datos_covid19.zip
datos_abiertos_covid19.zip and diccionario_datos_covid19.zip are the files I want to unzip once they are in my folder "data". I would really appreciate if someone can help me. Thanks in advance!
It fails because unzip foo.zip assumes foo.zip is in the current directory, but you just moved it to a subdirectory data. Interactively, you probably cd data first and that's why it works.
To make it work in your script, just have your script cd data as well:
#!/bin/bash
mkdir data
cd data || exit 1
wget http://187.191.75.115/gobmx/salud/datos_abiertos/datos_abiertos_covid19.zip && unzip datos_abiertos_covid19.zip
That way, the file is downloaded directly to the data directory so no mv is necessary, and the unzip command works as expected.
