Bash script for creating a new month and year

[Kohlmann]

I just installed in stats that I generated with HTML files only with static files, it is impossible to keep a history of previous months. I would therefore like to modify my bash script stats generated every night at 01h for it moves the files in a directory every month. What kind of script must exist on the net and saw that my level is more than zero bash programing I do not know how.?! I think I had to do a test to see if it is the first of the month and if so, create a directory with the number of months - 1 and if one is in January, create a new directory with the number of years. If someone could give me a small base of the script that I'd change my order to arrive at and then if someone know a script already done everything would be super cool AC.

This method may bring you some trouble if your script is not running, for some reason, the first of the month. Once it comes on 2 or later, he found a dirty environment and will have undefined behavior. It is better to go on an approach that is fully controlled and leaves no uncertainty. In my case, for this kind of scripts, I have the following steps:

Get the day
 Get month
 Recover year
 # All this can be done by cutting the output of 'date' of a sudden cut or awk.

 If the directory does not exist the year
    Then Create the directory of the Year
 Endif

 Go to the directory of the Year

 If the directory does not exist in the month
    Then create the directory of the month
 Endif

 Go to the directory of the month

 If the directory does not exist the day
    Then create the directory of the Day
 Endif

 Go to the directory of the Day

 Copy the desired files

All this is done very easily in bash and a perfectly deterministic behavior. Good luck for coding.

You can retrieve the date (or any part) as follows:

date + '% 02Y-% 02m'

in the example above that you return: 10-08
Working on this basis:

# Recovery of the current directory (month + year)
 Current = $ (date + '% 02Y-02m')
 rep_courant mydir = $ current
 # If the directory does not exist we create
 if [!  -D $ rep_current]
 Then
     mkdir $ rep_current
 fi

 # Save in $ rep_current

In terms of stats I did that :

 # / Bin / sh
 # List of fields
 field [0] = site
 field [1] = site1
 field [2] = site2
 field [3] = site3
 field [4] = site4
 field [5] = site5

 # Calculating stats
 for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5
 do
         rep_current_year = / home / stats / $ (domain [i]) / `date +% Y`
         rep_current_month = / home / stats / $ (domain [i]) / `date +% Y` / `date +% m`
         if [!  -D $ rep_current_year]
                 Then
                         mkdir $ rep_current_year
         fi
         if [!  -D $ rep_current_month]
                 Then
                         mkdir $ rep_current_month
         fi

         / Usr / share / doc / awstats / examples / awstats_buildstaticpages.pl-update-config = $ (area [i])-lang = en-dir = $ rep_current -
 awstatsprog = / usr / lib / cgi-bin / awstats.pl
 therefore

What do you think?

I am sure that the following code would be helpful for you :

 # / Bin / sh
                                                                                
                                                                                
 domain [0] = site
 field [1] = site1
 field [2] = site2
 field [3] = site3
 field [4] = site4
 field [5] = site5
                                                                                
 # Print the whole picture:
 echo $ (area[*])
                                                                                
 # Print the array size
 echo $ (# domain[*])
                                                                                
 # So
                                                                                
 i = 0
 while ((i <$ (# domain[*])))
 do
    contained echo $ (area [$ i])
         ((I = $ i +1))
 therefore
