Mac terminal, is it possible to create a folder of folder?

Time:03-08

I'd like to create a folder ubuntu/airflow/dags/survey_tools under my home directory. But I don't want to create it fold by fold. Could I make it with only 1 command?

(base) xxxx@xxxx-MacBook-Pro /home % pwd
/home
(base) xxxx@xxxx-MacBook-Pro /home % ls
(base) xxxx@xxxx-MacBook-Pro /home % 
(base) xxxx@xxxx-MacBook-Pro /home % mkdir -p ubuntu/airflow/dags/survey_tools
mkdir: ubuntu/airflow/dags/survey_tools: Operation not supported

CodePudding user response:

Yes, that's mkdir -p

mkdir -p ubuntu/airflow/dags/survey_tools

From man mkdir:

-p
Create intermediate folders as required. If this option is not specified, the full path prefix of each operand must already exist. On the other hand, with this option specified, no error will be reported if a directory given as an operand already exists.
