UNIX script to replace old date with current date dynamically in multiple files present in a folder
I am trying to work on a script where it is a *(star) delimited file has a multiple lines starts with RTG and 3rd column=TD8 I want to substring the date part and
I want to replace with currentdate minus 15 days. Here is an example. iam using AIX server
for file in *; do
# check if it's a file
if [ ! -f "$file" ]; then
# if not, next entry
continue;
fi
# run the script
while IFS='*' read -r str1 num str2 date; do
if ["$str1" = "DTP"] || ["$str2" = "D8"]; then
curdate=$(date +%Y%m%d)
date="${curdate}-${curdate}~"
fi
printf "%s*%s*%s*%s\n" "$str1" "$num" "$str2" "$date"
done < "$file"
done
