I'm trying to write a script which takes date as input (mm.yy.dd) and search in the current file. If pattern doesn't exist it will then look in a backup directory and so on.
being a newb i'm unable to loop over to the backup directory. hoping for some ideas, i've highlighted the area where i'm stuck . any advice is appreciated.
I have about mutiple backup directories in the root_dir and the script should keep searching until it runs out of directories.
the naming convention of backup directories is backup-yyyy.mm.dd
Code:
#!bin/bash
datetime=$1
root_dir=/home/xyz
bkup_dir=`ls -tr | grep -i "backup-" | tail -1
pattern=`grep "$datetime" $root_dir/logfile
if [ $pattern = "" ]
then "go into bkup folder and search for pattern "
else
echo -e $pattern
fi

tclsh8.4
tclsh(1) Tcl Applications tclsh(1)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
tclsh - Simple shell containing Tcl interpreter
SYNOPSIS
tclsh ?fileName arg arg ...?
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
Tclsh is a shell-like application that reads Tcl commands from its standard input or from a file and evaluates them. If invoked with no
arguments then it runs interactively, reading Tcl commands from standard input and printing command results and error messages to standard
output. It runs until the exit command is invoked or until it reaches end-of-file on its standard input. If there exists a file .tclshrc
(or tclshrc.tcl on the Windows platforms) in the home directory of the user, tclsh evaluates the file as a Tcl script just before reading
the first command from standard input.
SCRIPT FILES
If tclsh is invoked with arguments then the first argument is the name of a script file and any additional arguments are made available to
the script as variables (see below). Instead of reading commands from standard input tclsh will read Tcl commands from the named file;
tclsh will exit when it reaches the end of the file. The end of the file may be marked either by the physical end of the medium, or by the |
character, '
