I am trying to rename a file from multiple directories
I have a file called slave.log in multiple directories like slave1,slave2......slave17. so daily log rotation happens and creates a new file with current dateformat in it whereas the file data contains a previous day data . I want to rename those files with previous date format .
I have written shell script which works fine but the problem here is , I need to pass the path as parameter but likewise I have 17 directories so i cant schedule 17 cron enteries to run ...I have only basic knowledge about scripting . Please help me with best solution for this scenario
Is there a library that finds contents from a bunch of files (any files ) in a directory and does reverse-indexing of it based on files names (like lucene ) i din't find any library that does something like this.
I feel i will have two look this two things separately ? (no idea )
I though this would be simple, but i have been caught by the simplest of puzzles which i can't find the answer to anywhere,
I have some code which reads images and then OpenCV looks for differences.
I read files with the following command
vs = cv2.VideoCapture("/home/andrew/images/image_%6d.jpg")
and this work perfectly with images called image_000000.jpg image_000001.jpg
However i don't want to rename my images so i would like to read files called
MDAlarm_20180921-031140.jpg whcih contain the date then time.
What is the printf format for this ? as what ever I try it does not work i.e no files found or do the files need to start from 0 , so i need to append an index
starting at 000000?
Lastly once i have this working how can i tell which file is being processed ?
Many Thanks
Andrew
During my Grunt tasks, add a unique string to the end of my filenames. I have tried grunt-contrib-copy and grunt-filerev. Neither have been able to do what I need them to...
Currently my LESS files are automatically compiled on 'save' in Sublime Text 3 (so this does not yet occur in my grunt tasks). Then, I open my terminal and run 'grunt', which concatenates (combines) my JS files. After this is done, then grunt should rename 'dist/css/main.css' and 'dist/js/main.js' with a "version" at the end of the filename.
I have tried:
grunt-contrib-copy ('clean:expired' deletes the concatenated JS before grunt-contrib-copy' can rename the file)
grunt-filerev ('This only worked on the CSS files for some reason, and it inserted the version number BEFORE the '.css'. Not sure why it didn't work on the JS files.')
Here's my Gruntfile.js
So, to be clear, I am not asking for "code review" I simply need to know how I can incorporate a "rename" process so that when the tasks are complete, I will have 'dist/css/main.css12345 & dist/js/main.js12345' with no 'dist/css/main.css' or 'dist/js/main.js' left in their respective directories.
Thanks in advance for any help!
UPDATE: After experimenting with this, I ended up using grunt-contrib-rename and it works great! I beleieve the same results can be achieved via grunt-contrib-copy, in fact I know it does the same thing. So either will work. As far as support for regex, not sure if both support it, so may be something else worth looking into before choosing one of these plugins :)
Your rename:dist looks like it should do what you want, you just need to move clean:dist to be the first task that runs (so it deletes things from the prior build rather than the current build). The order of tasks is defined by the array on this last line:
grunt.registerTask('default', ['jshint:dev', 'concat:dist', 'less:dist', 'csslint:dist', 'uglify:dist', 'cssmin:dist', 'clean:dist', 'rename:dist']);
That said, I'm not sure why you want this behavior. The more common thing to do is to insert a hash of the file into the filename before the file extension.
The difference between a hash and a timestamp is that the hash value will always be the same so long as the file contents don't change - so if you only change one file, the compiled output for just that file will be different and thus browsers only need to re-downloaded that one file while using cached versions of every other file.
The difference between putting this number before the file extension and after the extension is that a lot of tools (like your IDE) have behavior that changes based on the extension.
For this more standard goal, there are tons of ways to accomplish it but one of the more common is to combine grunt-filerev with grunt-usemin which will create properly named files and also update your HTML file(s) to reference these new file names
I'm not sure to understand completely what end you want, but if you add a var timestamp = new Date().getTime(); at the beginning of your gruntfile and concatenate to your dest param that should do the job.
dest: 'dist/js/main.min.js' + timestamp
Is it what your looking for?
I'm processing a data set and running into a problem - although I xlswrite all the relevant output variables to a big Excel file that is timestamped, I don't save the code that actually generated that result. So if I try to recreate a certain set of results, I can't do it without relying on memory (which is obviously not a good plan). I'd like to know if there's a command(s) that will help me save the m-files used to generate the output Excel file, as well as the Excel file itself, in a folder I can name and timestamp so I don't have to do this manually.
In my perfect world I would run the master code file that calls 4 or 5 other function m-files, then all those m-files would be saved along with the Excel output to a folder names results_YYYYMMDDTIME. Does this functionality exist? I can't seem to find it.
There's no such functionality built in.
You could build a dependency tree of your main function by using depfun with mfilename.
depfun(mfilename()) will return a list of all functions/m-files that are called by the currently executing m-file.
This will include all files that come as MATLAB builtins, you might want to remove those (and only record the MATLAB version in your excel sheet).
As pseudocode:
% get all files:
dependencies = depfun(mfilename());
for all dependencies:
if not a matlab-builtin:
copyfile(dependency, your_folder)
As a "long term" solution you might want to check if using a version control system like subversion, mercurial (or one of many others) would be applicable in your case.
In larger projects this is preferred way to record the version of source code used to produce a certain result.
