Cmder别名到现有循环

Question

I have a loop that basically recursively removes folders by foldername:

for /d /r . %d in (node_modules) do @if exist "%d" rm -rf "%d" 

This works fine, if i run it by itself inside cmder, it will loop from the current set directory and then remove any instance it finds.

I figured seeing as it's a one liner I could easily add it as an alias to cmder by doing:

cnode=for /d /r . %d in (node_modules) do @if exist "%d" rm -rf "%d" 

cnode == (clean node), it's just something easy to remember, however when I run the command it doesn't actually do anything at all.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

find ./node_modules -name 'foo' -type d -exec rm -rf {} \\;

or find in node_modules any directory named 'foo' and run rm -rf on it

it can wildcard too:

find ./node_modules -name 'foo*' -type d -exec rm -rf {} \\;

if you want it to be an alias you have to make it a function. create a file aliases and make it:

#!/bin/bash function remove_dir () { find ./node_modules -name "'$1*'" -type d -exec rm -rf {} \\; }

and what someone else said, you're doing batch on windows, if you can use bash, i've given it to you
