Set of four BASH functions that can be used independently or together. When used together they recursively unzip files and remove the original zip files. Sometimes a zip file can contain other zip files. This set of functions will unzip all files in a directory and its subdirectories and then delete the original zip files.
Your environment will most certainly be different than mine. In my case, I have a ~/.bash_functions file where all of my BASH functions are stored. I then source this file in my ~/.bash_profile file. You may only have a ~/.bashrc file. If so, you could simply add these functions to that file. If you have neither, you could create a ~/.bash_functions file and source it in your ~/.bashrc file. The choice is yours.
For a file to be considered "unzipped" a folder of the same name must exist in the same location. When unzipped, the file my_archive.zip will be seen as:
```bash
my_archive.zip
my_archive/
```
Takes a directory as an argument and returns a count of the number of unzipped files in the directory and its subdirectories.
Usage: delete-unzipped <starting_folder>Takes a directory as an argument and deletes all unzipped files in the directory and its subdirectories.
Usage: delete-unzipped <starting_folder>Takes a directory as an argument and unzips all zip files in the directory and its subdirectories.
Usage: unzip-zips <starting_folder>Takes a directory as an argument and unzips all zip files in the directory and its subdirectories and then deletes the original zip files.
Usage: recursive-unzip <starting_folder>If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to reach out.
