Extract filename and extension in Bash

First, get file name without the path:

filename=$(basename -- "$fullfile")
extension="${filename##*.}"
filename="${filename%.*}"

Alternatively, you can focus on the last “https://stackoverflow.com/” of the path instead of the ‘.’ which should work even if you have unpredictable file extensions:

filename="${fullfile##*/}"

You may want to check the documentation :

• On the web at section “3.5.3 Shell Parameter Expansion”
• In the bash manpage at section called “Parameter Expansion”
