Frontend for find(1)

Find files with YAD This is a graphical frontend for find(1) + grep(1) commands.

Code:

#! /bin/bash

export find_cmd='@bash -c "run_find %1 %2 %3 %4 %5"'

export fts=$(mktemp -u --tmpdir find-ts.XXXXXXXX)
export fpipe=$(mktemp -u --tmpdir find.XXXXXXXX)
mkfifo "$fpipe"

trap "rm -f $fpipe $fts" EXIT

fkey=$(($RANDOM * $$))

function run_find
{
    echo "6:@disable@"
    if [[ $2 != TRUE ]]; then
        ARGS="-name '$1'"
    else
        ARGS="-regex '$1'"
    fi
    if [[ -n "$4" ]]; then
        dt=$(echo "$4" | awk -F. '{printf "%s-%s-%s", $3, $2, $1}')
        touch -d "$dt" $fts
        ARGS+=" -newer $fts"
    fi
    if [[ -n "$5" ]]; then
        ARGS+=" -exec grep -q -E '$5' {} \;"
    fi
    ARGS+=" -printf '%p\n%s\n%M\n%TD %TH:%TM\n%u/%g\n'"
    echo -e '\f' >> "$fpipe"
    eval find "$3" $ARGS >> "$fpipe"
    echo "6:$find_cmd"
}
export -f run_find

exec 3<> $fpipe
