My problem is that I have too many files in single directory. I cannot " ls
" the directory, cos is too large. I need to move all files in better directory structure.
I'm using the last 3 digits from ID as folders in reverse way.
For example ID 2018972
will gotta go in /2/7/9/img_2018972.jpg
.
I've created the directories, but now I need help with bash script. I know the IDs, there are in range 1,300,000 - 2,000,000
. But I can't handle regular expressions.
I wan't to move all files like this:
/images/folder/img_2018972.jpg -> /images/2/7/9/img_2018972.jpg
I will appreciate any help on this subject. Thanks!
EDIT : after explainations in comments the following assumptions exists:
img_<id>.jpg
or img_<id>_<size>.jpg
using Bash:
for file in /images/folder/*.jpg; do
fname="${file%.*}" # remove extension and _<size>
[[ "$fname" =~ img_[0-9]+_[0-9]+$ ]] && fname="${fname%_*}"
last0="${fname: -1:1}" # last letter/digit
last1="${fname: -2:1}" # last but one letter/digit
last2="${fname: -3:1}" # last but two letter/digit
newdir="/images/$last0/$last1/$last2"
# optionally check if the new dir exists, if not create it
[[ -d "$newdir" ]] || mkdir -p "$newdir"
mv "$file" "$newdir"
done
if *
can't handle it (although I think *
in a for loop has no limits),
use find
as suggested by @Michał Kosmulski in the comments
while read -r; do
fname="${REPLY%.*}" # remove extension and _<size>
[[ "$fname" =~ img_[0-9]+_[0-9]+$ ]] && fname="${fname%_*}"
last0="${fname: -1:1}" # last letter/digit
last1="${fname: -2:1}" # last but one letter/digit
last2="${fname: -3:1}" # last but two letter/digit
newdir="/images/$last0/$last1/$last2"
# optionally check if the new dir exists, if not create it
[[ -d "$newdir" ]] || mkdir -p "$newdir"
mv "$REPLY" "$newdir"
done < <(find /images/folder/ -maxdepth 1 -type f -name "*.jpg")
find /images/folder -type f -maxdepth 1 | while read file
do
filelen=${#file}
((rootn=$filelen-5))
((midn=$filelen-6))
((topn=$filelen-7))
root=${file:$rootn:1}
mid=${file:$midn:1}
top=${file:$topn:1}
mkdir -p /images/${root}/${mid}/${top}
mv $file /images/${root}/${mid}/${top}
done
