How to view/list only directories in Linux?
Ans : This can be achieved in two ways
1. Through ls command
2. Through find command
With ls we have to use grep to get the directory listings.
Ls –l grep ^d
Example :
[root@test surendra_a]# ls -l grep ^d
d--------- 2 surendra_a surendra_a 4096 Sep 8 09:54 HTWFAIP
drwxrwxr-x 2 surendra_a root 4096 Nov 27 12:30 LinuxCBT - RHEL5
drwxrwxr-x 2 surendra_a root 4096 Oct 12 16:40 Software
[root@test surendra_a]#
With find we can have more controle on how to display only directories.
A. To display all the directories and sub-directories in present directory
#find . -type d
B. Displaying only directories in present directory
#find /root/ -type d –maxdepth 1
C. Displaying just directories in present directry and its sub-directories
#find /root/ -type d –maxdepth 2
