Script to find file types and info
I'm looking for a way to inventory files on a webserver into a CSV file, and am particularly interested in certain types of files, like .php, .cgi, .pl, .py, .sh, etc. but also want the ability to find all files, including those with no extension, or specified extensions, as above, including files that have spaces or unusual characters or line returns in their names.

I saw the post here:

File Inventory Scan

which had a script that mostly worked and provided good info about the files it found, but couldn't handle files with spaces in their names (last column printed "cannot open: No such file or directory").

Ideally this script would also have columns for file user/group ownership, permissions, access, create and modification times, human readable file size, etc.

I'm on a Solaris 11 machine. I may have the ability to install packages if required.

LEARN ABOUT DEBIAN

weborf.conf

Weborf(5)							File Formats Manual							 Weborf(5)

NAME

       weborf.conf - configuration file for weborf daemon

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/weborf.conf

DESCRIPTION

       Weborf is a minimal webserver. Also has a limited support for webdav.
       Can be started as stand-alone or as SystemV daemon. This manual page documents Weborf's configuration file, used only when it is started as
       daemon.
       On debian systems, the script to run weborf as a daemon is  located  into  /usr/share/docs/weborf  and  has  to	be  manually  copied  into
       /etc/init.d
       Weborf is released under the GNU General Public License version 3.

DESCRIPTION

       Options	are  case  sensitive.  Immediately followed by the equal = sign, without any space between name and value.  Lines beginning with #
       will be ignored and treated as comments.

       indexes
	      By default weborf searches for index.html. Anyway it is possible to specify a different index file and also many index  files.  Name
	      of the pages must be separated by a comma and between them there aren't spaces.

       basedir
	      Default  base  directory used by the webserver. The default means that this will be used also when virtual hosts are enabled, if the
	      requested host is unknown. Of course the user used for the webserver will need to have access to this directory.

       use-cgi
	      Can be true or false. If false weborf will handle all files as normal files. Otherwise it will use the CGI protocol to execute  some
	      files.

       use-mime
	      Can  be true or false. If true weborf will send the Content-Type header to the clients. Turning it off will increase speed but might
	      cause problems with some old clients.

       cgi    List of extensions to consider as dynamic pages and binaries to execute them

       auth-bin
	      Path of the binary that provides authentication to weborf

       auth-socket
	      Path of the unix socket that weborf will use to connect to the authentication server

       cachedir
	      Will set the path of the directory used for caching

       user   Username of the user that will run the webserver. On debian this is usually www-data.

       virtual
	      This  directive  is  used   to   enable	virtualhosts.	One   line   is   needed   for	 each	port.	 The   format	is:   vir-
	      tual#port#domain1=basedir1,domain2=basedir2

EXAMPLE

       Example file can be found in /usr/share/doc/weborf/examples/weborf.conf
