Find files whose path doesn't contain a word

问题

I am trying to list all the .hpp files but those whose path contain a word, for example :

find -name '*.hpp' would give

folder1/folder2/something.hpp
folder1/folder3/something.hpp
folder1/folder4/something.hpp

I'd like to exclude the files in the folder2 in order to have only these :

folder1/folder3/something.hpp
folder1/folder4/something.hpp

回答1:

Just negate a -path condition:

find -name '*.hpp' -not -path '*/folder2/*'

To exclude several directories, either repeat the condition:

find -name '*.hpp' -not -path '*/folder2/*' -not -path '*/folder3/*'

Or use alternative in a regex:

find -name '*.hpp' -not -regex '.*/\(folder2\|folder3\)/.*'
