How do I pipe the output of something to a filename that includes the date, in a specific date format?
Here's the goal. Output a script to a file periodically during the day:
And when the next day comes, it starts logging to a new filename because the date will be different.
Hi,
On AIX 5200-07-00 I have a find command as following to delete files from a certain location that are more than 7 days old. I am being told that I cannot use -exec option to delete files from these directories.
Having said that I am more curious to know how this can be done.

I would like to pipe (redirect ? - what is the right term?) the output of my script to a file named with the current date.
If I run this at a command prompt:
date +'%Y%m%d"
...it returns "20110429"
OK, that's good... so I try:
./script.sh > "'date +%Y%m%d'.csv"
I get a file... (1 Reply)

20110501_1.dat

I'd like to have the output from this script piped to a text file that has the date at the beginning of it. For example, my ideal would be something like this
$./run_script.sh

Here's the code I'm using.

I'd like to write a monthly archive script that archives some logs. But I'd like to do it based on yesterday's date. In other words, I'd like to schedule the script to run on the 1st day of each month, but have the archive filename include the previous month instead.

stmktime
sttime(3) ShapeTools Toolkit Library sttime(3)NAME
stMktime, stWriteTime - date and time handling
SYNOPSIS
#include <config.h>
#include <sttk.h.h>
time_tstMktime (char *string);
char*stWriteTime (time_t date);
DESCRIPTION
stMktime scans the given string and tries to read a date and time from it. It understands various formats of date strings. The following is
a list of all valid formats, optional parts in brackets.
[Tue] Jan 5[,] [19]93
This includes the standard asctime(3) format.
Jan 5 With no year given, the year defaults to the current year.
[19]93/01/05 This notation requires month and day represented by exactly two digits.
5.1.[19]93 This is the usual German notation.
5.1. German notation referencing the current year.
A certain time, given together with the date must always have the following form.
hours:minutes[:seconds]
Each of the fields must be an integer value within the proper range (hours: 0-23, minutes and seconds: 0-59). Values below
10 may be written as one digit numbers.
The time value may be placed anywhere in the date string: at the beginning, at the end, or somewhere in the middle. Any amount of white-
space may be given between a field of the time value and the separating colon. The time is always considered to be local time.
stWriteTime generates a time string similar to asctime(3) from its date argument.
SEE ALSO asctime(3)BUGS
Time Zone Names within the time string (like `MET') are not handled properly. In most cases they will cause a failure.
