# Recursive Unzip Using BASH in MacOS (`recursive-unzip-bash-macos`)
Set of four BASH functions that can be used independently or together. When used together they recursively unzip files and remove the original zip files. Sometimes a zip file can contain other zip files. This set of functions will unzip all files in a directory and its subdirectories and then delete the original zip files.
## General Instructions
Your environment will most certainly be different than mine. In my case, I have a `~/.bash_functions` file where all of my BASH functions are stored. I then source this file in my `~/.bash_profile` file. You may only have a `~/.bashrc` file. If so, you could simply add these functions to that file. If you have neither, you could create a `~/.bash_functions` file and source it in your `~/.bashrc` file. The choice is yours.
## Terminology & Definitions
### Unzipped
For a file to be considered "unzipped" a folder of the same name must exist in the same location. When unzipped, the file `my_archive.zip` will be seen as:
```bash
my_archive.zip
my_archive/
```
## Functions
### `count-unzipped`
Takes a directory as an argument and returns a count of the number of unzipped files in the directory and its subdirectories.
```bash
Usage: delete-unzipped
```
### `delete-unzipped`
Takes a directory as an argument and deletes all unzipped files in the directory and its subdirectories.
```bash
Usage: delete-unzipped
```
### `unzip-zips`
Takes a directory as an argument and unzips all zip files in the directory and its subdirectories.
```bash
Usage: unzip-zips
```
### `recursive-unzip`
Takes a directory as an argument and unzips all zip files in the directory and its subdirectories and then deletes the original zip files.
```bash
Usage: recursive-unzip
```
