The below bash executes but nothing is copied. I am trying to cp or mv the matching .pdf to the corresponding folder. There will always be a matching .pdf found but the number of folders may vary. The portion in red is what is used to match the .pdf--- variable $pdf to the folder--- variable $fmatch. If I do an echo I can see the variables are populated correctly. I used cp to test before mv to make sure it works. Thank you .
dir=/home/cmccabe/folder
for file1 in $dir/*.pdf; do
# Grab file prefix
bname=`basename $file1` # strip of path
pre="$(echo $bname|cut -d_ -f1,2,3,4)" # remove after fourth underscore
pdf="$(echo $pre|awk -F- '{print $2"-"$3}')" # split on - and print 2 and third field
# Find matching folder
folder=$(find /home/cmccabe/folder/*/ -type d)
fpre="$(echo "$folder"|cut -d_ -f1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)" # remove after ninth underscore
fmatch="$(echo "$fpre"|awk -F- '{print $3"-"$4}')" # split on - and print third and fourth field
if [[ $pdf = $fmatch ]] # only execute file---folder value match
then
cp $dir/$pdf.pdf $dir/$fmatch
fi
done
