Create a dedicated folder for every zip files in a directory and extract zip files

Question

If I choose a zip file and right click "extract here" a folder with the zip filename is created and the entire content of the zip file is extracted into it.

However, I would like to convert several zip files via shell. But when I do

unzip filename.zip 

the folder "filename" is not created but all the files are extracted into the current directory.

I have looked at the parameters but there is no such parameter. I also tried

for zipfile in \*.zip; do mkdir $zipfile; unzip $zipfile -d $zipfile/; done 

but the .zip extension of the 2. $zipfile and 4. $zipfile have to be removed with sed. If I do

for zipfile in \*.zip; do mkdir sed 's/\.zip//i' $zipfile; unzip $zipfile -d sed 's/\.zip//i' $zipfile/; done  

it is not working.

How do I replace the .zip extension of $zipfile properly?

Is there an easier way than a shell script?

Answer 1

unzip file.zip -d xxx will extract files to directory xxx, and xxx will be created if it is not there. You can check the man page for details.

The awk line below should do the job:

ls *.zip|awk -F'.zip' '{print "unzip "$0" -d "$1}'|sh 

See the test below,

note that I removed |sh at the end, since my zips are fake archives; I just want to show the generated command line here.

kent$  ls -l total 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 kent kent 0 Nov 12 23:10 001.zip -rw-r--r-- 1 kent kent 0 Nov 12 23:10 002.zip -rw-r--r-- 1 kent kent 0 Nov 12 23:10 003.zip -rw-r--r-- 1 kent kent 0 Nov 12 23:10 004.zip -rw-r--r-- 1 kent kent 0 Nov 12 23:10 005.zip -rw-r--r-- 1 kent kent 0 Nov 12 23:10 006.zip -rw-r--r-- 1 kent kent 0 Nov 12 23:10 007.zip  kent$  ls *.zip|awk -F'.zip' '{print "unzip "$0" -d "$1}' unzip 001.zip -d 001 unzip 002.zip -d 002 unzip 003.zip -d 003 unzip 004.zip -d 004 unzip 005.zip -d 005 unzip 006.zip -d 006 unzip 007.zip -d 007
