osx - How can I recursively replace file and directory names using Terminal? -

using terminal on macos, want recursively replace word name of both directory , file name. instance, have angular app , module name article, of file names, , directory names contain word article. i've done find , replace replace articles apples in code. want same file structure both file names , directories share same convention.

just information, i've tried use newest yeoman generator create new files, there seems issue it. alternative duplicate directory , rename of files, quite time consuming.

got work following script

var=$1 if [ -n "$var" ];     crudname=$1     crudnameuppercase=`echo ${crudname:0:1} | tr  '[a-z]' '[a-z]'`${crudname:1}     foldername=$crudname's'     # create new folder     cp -r modules/articles modules/$foldername     # find/replace in files     find modules/$foldername -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i -e 's/article/'$crudnameuppercase'/g'     find modules/$foldername -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i -e 's/article/'$crudname'/g'     # delete useless files due sed     rm modules/$foldername/**/*-e     rm modules/$foldername/**/**/*-e     rm modules/$foldername/**/**/**/*-e     # rename files     file in modules/$foldername/**/*article* ; mv $file ${file//article/$crudname} ; done     file in modules/$foldername/**/**/*article* ; mv $file ${file//article/$crudname} ; done     file in modules/$foldername/**/**/**/*article* ; mv $file ${file//article/$crudname} ; done else     echo "usage: sh rename-module.sh [crud-name]" fi
