Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to pass current year and month in FOR LOOP in UNIX shell scripting? Post 302745651 by Chubler_XL on Monday 17th of December 2012 05:38:55 PM

You could init month and year vars and increment in a loop like this:

Code:
YEAR=`date +%Y`
MONTH=`date +%m`
for i in 1 2 3 4
do
   printf "Starting the statistics gathering of %d%02d partitions \n" $YEAR $MONTH
   let MONTH=10#$MONTH+1
   if [ $MONTH -gt 12 ]
   then
      let YEAR=YEAR+1
      let MONTH=1
   fi
done

Note the 10# above is required for bash, as leading zeros in Aug and Sep cause bash some issues as it tries to convert to octal.

NAME
dl10n-spider -- crawl translator mailing lists (and BTS) for status updates SYNOPSIS
dl10n-spider [options] lang+ DESCRIPTION
This script parses the debian-l10n-<language> mailing list archives. It looks for emails which title follow a specific format indicating what the author intend to translate, or the current status of his work on this translation. Those informations are saved to a dl10n database which can then be used to build a l10n coordination page or any other useless statistics. get_header(HTML) get_header extract the email header from the html page. This header starts at <!--X-Head-of-Message--> and stops at <!--X-Head-of-Message-End-->. As it contains html tags, they are also removed. It gets a reference to an array of line (HTML) containing the html code of the page. It returns a reference to an array containing the email header lines. get_message(LANGUAGE, YEAR, MONTH, MESSAGE) get_message requests message to the archives of a l10n mailling. It gets the language string (LANGUAGE), year (YEAR), month (MONTH) and message number (MESSAGE) integers. It return a reference to an array containing the html lines or 'undef' if an error occured. get_indexpage retrieves all messages numbers and subjects from a page of messages sorted by date. It return a hash table with message number as keys and subject as values (this is really quicker than retrieving each message). LICENSE
