Using Wget To Download File Every Five Minutes

Question

Currently, I'm trying to use the date command (NOT crontab) to manually download a file that is uploaded to a server every five minutes.

I realize that date -u +%M --date="5 minutes ago" will display the time from 5 minutes ago but, I'm looking for a way to go back in 5 minute increments .

Answer 1

那个5可以是任何数字：

for n in {0..1440..5}; do date -u --date="$n minutes ago"; done
