Read a directory and compress files

compress_files.sh

#!/bin/bash

path=${1}
glob_filename=${2}

if [ ! ${path} ] || [ ! ${glob_filename} ]
then
    echo "This script will compress files using zip.
To use this script you need to inform the directory path and the file

./compress_files.sh directory 'files'

For example you can zip all files starting with my_report_2016*.csv:

./compress_files.sh /data/my-data 'my_report_2016*.csv'
"
    exit 1
fi

cd $path
echo `pwd`

find . -iname "${glob_filename}" -print0 | while read -d $'\0' file
do
    filename=$(basename $file)
    echo "Compressing $filename"
    zip -m $filename.zip $filename
done
