POHow to run through all subdirectories of a given directory?

Body
copied!<p>I wrote a script that reports on files directly in the present directory. I would like to extend my script so that it runs through all subdirectories and subdirectories of subdirectories and so on and makes an overall report. </p> <p>for example:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/tamxo.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <pre><code>my_script > report </code></pre> <p>creates a report like:</p> <pre><code>HEADERS += \ header1.h \ header2.h \ SOURCES += \ source1.cpp \ source2.cpp \ </code></pre> <p>But let us imagine we have subfolders:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Z0DSG.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p>I would like to make a recursive report like:</p> <pre><code>INCLUDEPATH += "relative path to subfolder1" "result of my_script for subfolder1" INCLUDEPATH += "relative path to subfolder2" "result of my_script for subfolder2" HEADERS += \ header1.h \ header2.h \ SOURCES += \ source1.cpp \ source2.cpp \ </code></pre> <p>I tried to look at similar questions but all of them seemed different in nature and were answered by a one line linux command. I think that my problem is more complicated, since the script needs to call itself recursively.</p> <p>EDIT: here is my script:</p> <pre><code>#!/bin/bash if ls *.h &> /dev/null; then echo "HEADERS += \ " printf ' %s \\\n' *.h echo "" fi if ls *.cpp &> /dev/null; then echo "SOURCES += \ " printf ' %s \\\n' *.cpp echo "" fi if ls *.ui &> /dev/null; then echo "FORMS += \ " printf ' %s \\\n' *.ui fi </code></pre>
