Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers [Solved] Help -file archival Post 302887105 by migurus on Wednesday 5th of February 2014 04:06:59 PM
Old 02-05-2014
a sample script below will go through all csv files in the current directory and rename files with current date:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
today=$(date '+%Y%m%d');
for fname in *.csv; do
        new_name=${fname%.csv}${today}.csv;
        echo $fname $new_name;
        # mv $fname $new_name;
done

here are csv files in my directory:
Code:
$ ls *csv
aaa.csv
bbb.csv

and here is result:
Code:
aaa.csv aaa.20140205.csv
bbb.csv bbb.20140205.csv

if you see that results fit you then uncomment the mv statement below echo and it will do the job.

If you want to place resulting files in another directory just add the archival directory to the script
Code:
ARCH_DIR=/my/arch/folder;

and change the new_name forming to reflect that:
Code:
new_name=${ARCH_DIR)/${fname%.csv}.${today}.csv;
