Bash script to find the specific files in the folder and show the sizes
0
I have an array of file names like below, I want to find and learn the sizes in the folder. I wrote the bash script below but it is finding all the files in the folder recursively.
files=( a/ddd/dd ddd/b dfgf/fgdfg/c dfgdfg/dfgdfg/d dsf/e rret/ertert/erter/f)
for u in "${files[@]}"
do
find . "[^/]+$" $u".js" -exec du -sh {} ;
done
command-line bash scripts

Can you please edit your question to clarify what you are trying to do? Isdfgf/fgdfg/c.jsa file whose size you want to know, or isdfgf/fgdfg/ca directory that contains*.jsfiles whose size you want to know?

From man find
-maxdepth levels
Descend at most levels (a non-negative integer) levels of directories below the starting-points.
-maxdepth 0
means only apply the tests and actions to the starting-points themselves.
Try
find . -maxdepth 0 -name "[^/]+$" $u".js" -exec du -sh {} ;
I rarely use find with -exec (because I always forget about it) so I apologize if this is wrong

The-execpart look fine to me, but I'm having a hard time understanding what-name "[^/]+$" $u".js"is intended to do here. AFAIK-nametakes a single simple shell glob (not a regex) as argument, and matches against only the filename portion (so a-namepattern can't contain slashes)
