Batch prepend text to files
Easy way to prepend some text to a group of files in a directory and subdirectories:
# Text to prepend
PREPEND_TEXT="import {h} from 'preact';"
# Searches for .tsx files
find . -name '*.tsx' -print0 |
while IFS= read -rd '' file;
do
# Outputs to abc.tsx.new
# Flag -e is used to be able to append also \n
# See: https://linux.die.net/man/1/echo
echo -e "$PREPEND_TEXT" | cat - $file > "$file.new";
# Replaces old abc.tsx with the new one
mv "$file.new" $file;
done
