Full Discussion: Filter log file contents between date
Operating Systems Linux Filter log file contents between date Post 302996786 by jim mcnamara on Tuesday 2nd of May 2017 09:08:22 AM

Does your Linux have a command, dgrep?

Code:
which dgrep

will show you if the command is available.

dgrep is date grep - it is meant to do exactly what you asked for.
If you don't have it, install the dateutuils package for your system.

PS: showing sample input and expected output really helps get better answers than what I just gave.

zgrep

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME

       zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression

SYNOPSIS

       zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...

DESCRIPTION

       Zgrep  invokes  grep  on  compressed  or  gzipped  files.   These  grep	options  will  cause  zgrep  to  terminate  with  an  error  code:
       (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*).  All other options specified are passed directly to grep.  If no file is specified,  then  the
       standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep.  Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.

       If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.

EXIT CODE

       2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
