Hi,
I have a small script here that goes to inside dir and sorts the file
by create date. I can return the create date but I don't know how to
find the name of that file...
I need file that is not latest but was created before the last file.
Any hints... I am newbiw python dude and still trying to figure out lot
of 'stuff'..
import os, time, sys
from stat import *
def walktree(path):
test1 = []
for f in os.listdir(path):
filename = os.path.join(path, f)
create_date_sces = os.stat(filename)[ST_CTIME]
create_date = time.strftime("%Y%m%d%H%M%S",
time.localtime(create_date_sces))
print create_date, " ....." , f
test1.append(create_date)
test1.sort()
print test1
return test1[-2]
if __name__ == '__main__':
path = '\\\\srv12\\c$\\backup\\my_folder\\'
prev_file = walktree(path)
print "Previous back file is ", prev_file
Thank you,
hj
