Question

I have a file structure like this:

/home/user/.m2/repository/../*SNAPSHOT/..

And I try to get all files in those SNAPSHOT folders, but they have a different depth. My command looks like this right now:

find /home/user/.m2/repository/*/*SNAPSHOT* -type f -name "*201[3-4]*"

but like this he only search for a depth of 1. What must I type for the * in my solution to get any depth of subfolders?

I tried to do some regex magic, but didn't find anything working :)

Anyone has something useful for me?

Was it helpful?

Solution

If I understood the question correctly, I think this should work for you:

find /home/user/.m2/repository -path '*/SNAPSHOT/*' -type f -name '*201[3-4]*'

Basically the trick is to use -path with find.
