Help script shell find fichier
Hello,
I am looking for a shell script that can
1- take as input a variable, like "server.cpu"
2- do a search for that variable in a directory that contains subdirectories.
The search will start at the last subdirectory working up to the top level if I can not find the file
3- exemple : variable aix1.cpu
directory: / DIR / SDIR1 / SDIR2 / SDIR3 / SDIR4 /
ls /DIR/SDIR1/SDIR2/SDIR3/SDIR4/aix1.cpu (if I can find the file in / SDIR4 / so I end program then displays or I look in the /DIR/SDIR1/SDIR2/SDIR3/aix1.cpu (if I find the file so the program end if not find I look in /DIR/SDIR1/SDIR2/aix1.cpu (ditto ..) if I do not find the file I need to display a file that is default.cpu located in the / DIR /
thank you for your help
George

Is this a homework assignment?

What operating system and shell are you using?

What have you tried to solve this problem?

The following script seems to do what you want:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
IAm="${0%%*/}"
if [ $# -ne 2 ]
then	printf 'Usage: %s directory file\n' "$IAm"
	exit 1
fi
dir="$1"
file="$2"
while :
do	if [ -e "$dir/$file" ]
	then	printf 'File "%s" found in directory "%s"\n' "$file" "$dir"
		exit 0
	fi
	parent_dir="$(dirname "$dir")"
	if [ "$parent_dir" = "$dir" ]
	then	printf 'File "%s" not found.\n' "$file"
		exit 1
	fi
	dir="$parent_dir"
done
