Linux 仅在子目录上递归 chmod

Question

I'm on linux, and I have a directory with numerous sub-directories and items inside them. I want to run a recursive chmod on all directories and sub-directories but NONE of the files inside those directories.

chmod -R 777 {folder}

Is there a flag I can add to the chmod command to make the chmod only apply to sub-directories?

Answer 1

Off the top of my head:

find {folder} -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 777

Answer 2

find {folder} -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 777

Answer 3

Try:

find {folder} -type d -exec chmod 777 {} \;

Answer 4

Straight from the man pages :

And also corroborated here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/17091831/538512

use the following format or a derivative thereof chmod -R u=rwX,go=rwX {folder}

Hope that helps!

Answer 5

We can also run below command to change permission of all folders recursively.

sudo chmod 777 -v $(find $PWD -type d)
