How to select all files of archive, ending at 00 ... XX, with the latest date of fileset ?

Date and time is not sorted.

Bash, regexp ?

Thanx!

Answer 1

s3cmd ls s3://bucket/path/ | sort -k1,2

这将按日期升序排序。

Answer 2

DATE=$(s3cmd ls | sort -n | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $1}')
s3cmd ls | grep $DATE 

sorting as a number schould put youngest dates last. Tail -n1 takes the last line, awk cuts the first word which is the date. Use that to get all entries of that date.

But maybe I didn't understand the question - so you have to rephrase it. You tell us 'date and time is not sorted' and provide an example where they are sorted - you ask for the latest date, but all entries have the same date.

Answer 3

Try

This command syntax is s3 ls s3:// path of the bucket / files | sort

s3cmd ls s3://file1.tgz.00<br>  | sort

It will sort in the descending date at last

Answer 4

Simply append | sort | sort to your s3cmd ls command to sort by date. The most recent file will appear right above your command line.

s3cmd ls s3://path/to/file | sort
