Bash ，查找最近 x 天的修改过的文件

Question

Is there a way to find all files that have been modified the last x days from a specific directory? I have done this

find /home/user -iname "*.txt" -mtime -$x -print but it shows the files from user not from the directory.

the content of the directory is:

total 8
-rw------- 1 danae danae    0 Jun 21 22:08 a
dr-x------ 2 danae danae 4096 Jun 30 10:56 d
-rw------- 1 danae danae    0 Jun 30 10:56 file
-rw-rw---- 1 danae danae    8 Jun 29 13:03 file2
-rw-rw---- 1 danae danae    0 Jun 21 22:06 file3
-rwxrwx--x 1 danae danae    0 Jun 21 22:06 file4
-r-------- 1 danae danae    0 Jun 21 22:07 file5
-rw-rw-r-- 1 danae danae    0 Jun 21 22:07 file6

Answer 1

The issue with your current command

find /home/user -iname "*.txt" -mtime -$x -print

Is "/home/user" which is telling find to always look in that directory.

This should be replaced with the directory you want to look in. Or if you are doing this within a bash script first cd to the directory and then use

find . -iname "*.txt" -mtime -$x -print

Answer 2

Use . to indicate the current directory:

find . -iname "*.txt" -mtime -$x -print
