How to write bash script which recursively scan subdirectories and list files with current day of month?

Question

I need to write a simple bash script to recursively scan subdirectories (starting at the current directory), listing the names of all files where the name contains the current day-of-the-month. I am very new to bash script.

I had wrote the following script but I did not get anything.

  #!/bin/bash

  for i in $find*
  do
  if grep -rq date +%d $i; then
  echo $i
  fi
  done

Answer 1

Use find . Example:

find . -type f -iname "*09*"

-iname "*09*" tells it to find only files that have "09" in them. You can replace it with the day of the month that you have.

-type f tells it to return files only, not directories.

There are many more options. Read the man page for find

Answer 2

Get current day in a variable using date command then run find :

d=$(date '+%d')

cd /base/dir
find . -name "*$d*" -type f
