Python：将文件从一个文件夹复制到2天前创建的另一个文件夹

Question

I want to copy the files that have been created two days ago from a folder to an other.

This is my code:

src = '/home/user'
dst = '/var/tmp/backup_tmp'

two_days = datetime.now() - timedelta(days=2)
filetime = datetime.fromtimestamp(path.getctime(src))

for file in os.listdir(src):
  if file not in os.listdir(dst) and os.path.isfile(file):
    if filetime <= two_days:
       print "File is more than two days old"
    else:
       shutil.copy(os.path.join(src, file), dst)

I do not have any errors when I run the script but the files not copy to my destination folder.

Can you help me to find where is the wrong with this???

Answer 1

You calculating filetime outside if the loop. Seems like this is a your problem. Try:

for f in os.listdir(src):
  filetime = datetime.fromtimestamp(path.getctime(os.path.join(src,f)))
  if f not in os.listdir(dst) and os.path.isfile(f):
    if filetime <= two_days:
       print "File is more than two days old"
    else:
       shutil.copy(os.path.join(src, f), dst)

Answer 2

The problem was the statement: "if f not in os.listdir(dst) and os.path.isfile(f):" When I removed it everything works properly.
