Rename files with its pathname
Hi,


I have a few csv files within the directory structure as shown below

Code:
/tmp/user/Proj/V1/data/Common1/Zip1/123.csv
/tmp/user/Proj/V1/data/Common2/Zip2/3453.csv
/tmp/user/Proj/V1/data/Common2/Zip2/1234.csv
and so on...

I need to get these csv files and move to another dir with the filename Common1_Zip1_123.csv,Common2_Zip2_3453.csv etc..I have written the following code but the filenames are having the whole path..Pl. correct on my code..


Code:
#!/bin/bash

SourceDir="/tmp/user/Proj/V1/data/
DestDir="/tmp/user/Proj/V1/data/FinalData"

for file in $(find $SourceDir -type f -name *.csv); do
        shortname=${file##*/$SourceDir/}
        newname="$DestDir/${shortname//\//_}"
        if [ -f $newname ]; then
                echo "$newname already exists."
        else
                cp $file $newname
        fi
done


The output i am getting is:
Code:
_tmp_user_Proj_V1_data_COMMON1_ZIP1_123.csv
