I want to download the latest file published on remote server using SFTP connection.
The job will run at every 15 min hence should download only the latest file. The fileName will be like ABC_DDHHMISS.txt (DD- day, HH-hour, MI - Min, SS-Sec).
So there will be files with same date for previous month, hence while downloading I should avoid old files and extract only latest files.
I tried to use the below script where the TIMESTAMP_FILE will get touched as soon as the script completes so next time when the script will run, it will fetch all new files after the timestamp of TIMESTAMP_FILE.
but when i execute the below script it's unable to find the $TIMESTAMP_FILE as it's available in local server.
Please help me to fix the issue.
Code:
NEW_FILES=`ssh username@hostname find /data/feeds/OUT -type f
-newer $TIMESTAMP_FILE -name "ABC*"`
1) How do I get the name of latest file in a variable?
2) Is it safe to delete all files from a dir
I am doing
cd $dir_name
if return_code > 0
rm *
fi
what are other alternates to delete all files from a dir in a shell script?

ssh-argv0
SSH-ARGV0(1) BSD General Commands Manual SSH-ARGV0(1)NAME
ssh-argv0 -- replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling
SYNOPSIS
hostname | user@hostname [-l login_name] [command]
hostname | user@hostname [-afgknqstvxACNTX1246] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-e escape_char] [-i identity_file] [-l login_name]
[-m mac_spec] [-o option] [-p port] [-F configfile] [-L port:host:hostport] [-R port:host:hostport] [-D port] [command]
DESCRIPTION
ssh-argv0 replaces the old ssh command-name as hostname handling. If you link to this script with a hostname then executing the link is
equivalent to having executed ssh with that hostname as an argument. All other arguments are passed to ssh and will be processed normally.
