first of all: I'm new to unix and im not very experienced.
I've bought a rapsberry pi and i want it to be the backup-machine for my SD-Cards while im travelling (attached ssd, card reader, a small touch-tft)
I managed to modify it a litte bit (its sending information bubbles to the desktop).
What this script is doing:
1. It starts copying photos and videos as soon as i plug in a card reader (automatically)
My problem:
I want the script to do a check. To compare the old folder and the new folder and to check if everything has been transfered properly.
I don't even know where to start. I can't do it by myself.
I don't even know what the script should compare? Filesize? Number of files? Filesize seems a little risky, the sd-cards partition could be NTFS...AND the script should check the ,,FILE_MATCH=".*\" formats only.
I have a folder called {homedata}
Within this folder there are 12 subfolders 200601.......200612
Within each subfolder there are 8 sets of files
Each filename commences with A B C D E F G or H,
so {filename}* can be used.
