change names of files into different folders












0















I actually have several folders with one file into each of them



for exemple :



name_folder1
name_folder1_GCA_567.9_genomic.fna
name_folder2
name_folder2_GCA_9002.0_genomic.fna
name_folder2
name_folder2_GCA_234.0_genomic.fna


And what I'm trying to do is to get inside all these folder a different name and change the files' names such as:



name_folder1
name_folder1.fna
name_folder2
name_folder2.fna
name_folder2
name_folder2.fna


Does someone have an idea?



I can also gather all my files into one file if it makes it easier:



name_folder1_GCA_567.9_genomic.fna
name_folder2_GCA_9002.0_genomic.fna
name_folder2_GCA_234.0_genomic.fna


change to :



name_folder1.fna
name_folder2.fna
name_folder2.fna


Thank you very much for your time.

  • For the second choice I tried something like: for f in /ncbi/*.fna; do mv -v "$f" "${f/_GCA.*_genomic/""}"; done my idea being to replace all the part from _GCA to _genomic by nothing for all files but it does not work I'm not really familiar with bash

  • I finally found ! by doing for f in *.fna; do mv "$f" "${f/_GCA*_genomic/""}"; done. :)
