Add unique identifier from file to filetype in directory
I am trying to add a unique identifier to two file extensions .bam and .vcf in a directory located at /home/cmccabe/Desktop/index/R_2016_09_21_14_01_15_user_S5-00580-9-Medexome.
The identifier is in $2 of the input file. What the code below is attempting to do is strip off the last portion of the path in the for.... in the below bash that is R_2016_09_21_14_01_15_user_S5-00580-9-Medexome.
That string appears in the input file and is unique and has 3 lines above it with identifiers in it.
strings in bold are identifiers
Code:
IonXpress_007 MEV21
IonXpress_008 MEV22
IonXpress_009 MEV23
R_2016_09_21_14_01_15_user_S5-00580-9-Medexome ---- this line is matched from the path in the directory
There are 3.bam files in /home/cmccabe/Desktop/index/R_2016_09_21_14_01_15_user_S5-00580-9-Medexome, each on will match one $1 value in input. The corresponding $2 value is what is used as the identifier to update the file in /home/cmccabe/Desktop/index/R_2016_09_21_14_01_15_user_S5-00580-9-Medexome.
My actual data is several hundreds of lines but I have included a sample dataset:
input (file to update from) located at /home/cmccabe/s5_files/identifier

I keep all my files on a NAS device and copy files from it to usb or local storage when needed. The bad part about this is that I often have the same file on numerous places. I'd like to write a script to check if the files in a given directory exist in another.
An example:
