recursivefilecmd
==
Execute a command on files with a specific extension recursively in a directory tree.
<br>
# 1. Overview
## 1.1. Usage
```sh
./recursivefilecmd.sh <extension> <path> <command ..>
```
<br>
### 1.1.1. Arguments
- `extension`: The file extension to search for.
- `path`: The root directory to start searching for files.
- `command`: The command to execute on each file.
<br>
### 1.1.2. Examples
```sh
./recursivefilecmd.sh 'hcl' 'services/' nomad run -detach
```
```sh
./recursivefilecmd.sh 'yaml' 'config/' kubectl apply -f
```
<br>
## 1.2. Behaviour
The file-name including its path are added to the end of the given command.
All files are executed in-sequence.
When `path` is a file which matches the extension, only it is executed.<br>
When the extension doesnt match, the directory is used instead, walking up up to 3 times, searching for files matching the extension.

# 2. Development
## 2.1. Features
Maybe i'll add some more features, here a few i can think of:
- [ ] Convert project to golang
- [ ] Add options for optional things
- [ ] Replace `extension`-filter with a regex-match
- [ ] Make recursive optional
- [ ] Parameterize passed-filepath (e.g. # for all & #1 for regex-group 1)
