Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Making a script to copy files not seen before (using md5sum) Post 302848685 by nbsparks on Thursday 29th of August 2013 07:03:06 PM

OK... I have to go home and test this, but if I wanted to be able to run a command like this...

./copy_new_photos.sh nick

and that would look for the user "nick" for new photos and then copy them, then I would script it like this...

Code:
#!/bin/bash

USER=$1
SRC=/user/$USER/.phonesync/photos-backup
DST=/user/$USER/.phonesync/photos-new
MD5=/user/$USER/.phonesync/photos-backup.md5

for f in $SRC/*
do
  grep -q $f $MD5
  if [[ $? -ne 0 ]]; then
    cp $SRC/$f $DST
    md5sum $f >> $MD5
  fi
done

Did I get it right?
