I really only want it to report when a file has been modified so
this seems to work,
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
import os
import time
def mod():
"""Find files modified today, given a file path."""
latest = 0
now = time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d', time.localtime())
dir = os.path.dirname(sys.argv[1])
for fname in os.listdir(dir):
if fname.endswith('.py'):
modtime = os.stat(os.path.join(dir, fname)).st_mtime
if modtime > latest:
latest = modtime
Why do you modify latest to whatever the mod time of the
file is? Surely you want to always compare mod time with now?
out = time.strftime('%Y-%m-%d',
time.localtime(latest))
if out == now:
print fname, "has changed today. "
else:
pass
You don't need the else:pass bit. It does nothing.
