bfs

Breadth-first search for your files.

Find files by extension

$ bfs [root_path] -name '[*.ext]'

Find files matching multiple path/name patterns

$ bfs [root_path] -path '[**/path/**/*.ext]' -or -name '[*pattern*]'

Find directories matching a given name, in case-insensitive mode

$ bfs [root_path] -type d -iname '[*lib*]'

Find files matching a given pattern, excluding specific paths

$ bfs [root_path] -name '[*.py]' -not -path '[*/site-packages/*]'

Find files matching a given size range, limiting the recursive depth to "1"

$ bfs [root_path] -maxdepth 1 -size [+500k] -size [-10M]

Run a command for each file (use {} within the command to access the filename)

$ bfs [root_path] -name '[*.ext]' -exec [wc -l] {} \;

Find all files modified today and pass the results to a single command as arguments

$ bfs [root_path] -daystart -mtime [-1] -exec [tar -cvf archive.tar] {} \+

Find empty files (0 byte) or directories and delete them verbosely

$ bfs [root_path] -type [f|d] -empty -delete -print
