shell - Using "find" remove .js files and maintain .min.js files

Question

Having this folder (its a minified example):

js/
- folder/
    test.js
    test.min.js
    - inner folder/
        nice.js
        nice.min.js
- another_folder/
    hello.js
    hello.min.js
config.js
config.min.js

I want to get rid of the .js files (and maintain the min.js files). This would be my desired output:

js/
- folder/
    test.min.js
    - inner folder/
        nice.min.js
- another_folder/
    hello.min.js
config.min.js

How can I archieve this using find?

Answer 1

find . -iname '*.js' ! -iname '*.min.js'

Output

./js/another_folder/hello.js
./js/folder/inner folder/nice.js
./js/folder/test.js
./config.js

And to remove these files you just pipe them to rm

find . -iname '*.js' ! -iname '*.min.js' -exec rm -f {} +
