Hi, please ignore all my replies above as I have already solved it myself (which I am amazed cause I suck at programming)... However, I have one last question, for this part of the code: 
sub get_files {
    my (@dirs) = @_;

    my $level = shift // 3; # level to dig into
    my @files = File::Find::Rule->file()
    ->name( '*.bz2' ) #can insert regex too
    ->maxdepth($level)
    ->in(@dirs);
    
    return @files;
}

This particular line: 
my (@dirs) = @_;

[download]
When I change it to my own log file path, it will replace the <date>/<filename.bz2> which will returns nothing in result. How can I specify my own log path?
