View 4 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Recursively Count All The Files In A Directory?
Oct 12, 2010I have a really deep directory tree on my Linux box. I would like to count all of the files in that path, including all of the subdirectories.
For instance, given this directory tree:
/home/blue
/home/red
/home/dir/green
/home/dir/yellow
/home/otherDir/
If I pass in /home, I would like for it to return 4 files. Or, bonus points if it returns 4 files, 2 directories. Basically, I want the equivalent of right-clicking a folder on Windows and selecting properties and seeing how many files/folders are contained in that folder.
How can I most easily do this? I have a solution involving a Python script I wrote, but why isn't this as easy as running ls | wc or similar?
