bfs
is a variant of the UNIX find
command that operates breadth-first rather than depth-first.
It is otherwise compatible with many versions of find
, including
If you're not familiar with find
, the GNU find manual provides a good introduction.
Features
bfs
operates breadth-first, which typically finds the file(s) you're looking for faster.
Imagine the following directory tree:
haystack ├── deep │ └── 1 │ └── 2 │ └── 3 │ └── 4 │ └── ... └── shallow └── needle
find
will explore the entire deep
directory tree before it ever gets to the shallow
one that contains what you're looking for.
On the other hand, bfs
lists files from shallowest to deepest, so you never have to wait for it to explore an entire unrelated subtree.
bfs | find |
---|---|

|
bfs
tries to be easier to use than find
, while remaining compatible.
For example, bfs
is less picky about where you put its arguments:
bfs | find |
---|---|
|
|
bfs
gives helpful errors and warnings.
For example, bfs
will detect and suggest corrections for typos:
$ bfs -nam needle
bfs: error: bfs -nam needle
bfs: error: ~~~~
bfs: error: Unknown argument; did you mean -name?
bfs
also includes a powerful static analysis to help catch mistakes:
$ bfs -print -name 'needle'
bfs: warning: bfs -print -name needle
bfs: warning: ~~~~~~~~~~~~
bfs: warning: The result of this expression is ignored.
bfs
adds some options that make common tasks easier.
For example, the -exclude
operator skips over entire subtrees whenever an expression matches.
-exclude
is both more powerful and easier to use than the standard -prune
action; compare
$ bfs -name config -exclude -name .git
to the equivalent
$ find ! \( -name .git -prune \) -name config
As an additional shorthand, -nohidden
skips over all hidden files and directories.
See the usage documentation for more about the extensions provided by bfs
.

may already be packaged for your operating system.

To build bfs
from source, you may need to install some dependencies.
The only absolute requirements for building bfs
are a C compiler, GNU make, and Bash.
These are installed by default on many systems, and easy to install on most others.
Refer to your operating system's documentation on building software.
bfs
also depends on some system libraries for some of its features.
Here's how to install them on some common platforms:
Alpine Linux # apk add acl{,-dev} attr libcap{,-dev} liburing-dev oniguruma-dev Arch Linux # pacman -S acl attr libcap liburing oniguruma Debian/Ubuntu # apt install acl libacl1-dev attr libattr1-dev libcap2-bin libcap-dev liburing-dev libonig-dev Fedora # dnf install acl libacl-devel attr libcap-devel liburing-devel oniguruma-devel NixOS # nix-env -i acl attr libcap liburing oniguruma Void Linux # xbps-install -S acl-{devel,progs} attr-progs libcap-{devel,progs} liburing-devel oniguruma-devel Homebrew $ brew install oniguruma MacPorts # port install oniguruma6 FreeBSD # pkg install oniguruma
These dependencies are technically optional, though strongly recommended. See the build documentation for how to disable them.
Once you have the dependencies, you can build bfs
.
Download one of the releases or clone the git repo. Then run
$ ./configure
$ make
This will build the ./bin/bfs
binary.
Run the test suite to make sure it works correctly:
$ make check
If you're interested in speed, you may want to build the release version instead:
$ ./configure --enable-release
$ make
Finally, if you want to install it globally, run
# make install
