Linux: List only directories
- Using echo
Example: echo */, echo */*/
cs/ draft/ files/ hacks/ masters/ static/
cs/code/ files/images/ static/images/ static/stylesheets/
- Using ls only
Example: ls -d */
Here is exactly what I got:
cs/ files/ masters/
draft/ hacks/ static/
Or as list (with detail info): ls -dl */
- Using ls and grep
Example: ls -l | grep “^d” Here is what I got:
drwxr-xr-x 24 h staff 816 Jun 8 10:55 cs
drwxr-xr-x 6 h staff 204 Jun 8 10:55 draft
drwxr-xr-x 9 h staff 306 Jun 8 10:55 files
drwxr-xr-x 2 h staff 68 Jun 9 13:19 hacks
drwxr-xr-x 6 h staff 204 Jun 8 10:55 masters
drwxr-xr-x 4 h staff 136 Jun 8 10:55 static
- Bash Script (Not recommended for filename containing spaces)
Example: for i in $(ls -d */); do echo ${i%%/}; done
Here is what I got:
cs
draft
files
hacks
masters
static
If you like to have ‘/’ as ending character, the command will be: for i in $(ls -d */); do echo ${i}; done
cs/
draft/
files/
hacks/
masters/
static/
