I need to search for a file (logo.png), in a folder that contains war, ear, and jar archive files. Can anyone help me with the command?

Searching inside jar files:

find . -name \*.jar -exec sh -c 'printf "\n\nFile: {}"; jar tf {}' ";" | less +/foo

And similar with war files:

find . -name \*.war -exec sh -c 'printf "\n\nFile: {}"; unzip -l {}' ";" | less +/foo

Change foo with text of your interest (such as abc.png).

You can press:

• n to search for the next pattern match.
• Shift+n to search backwards,
• / + type something + Enter to search for another phrase.

See similar, but on Windows: Finding which jars contain a file

You can use unzip command for this purpose:

unzip -t example.war |grep filename

jar tvf foo.war | grep filename
