The following script would automatically create .trg files
if a file doesn’t exist. It also checks for the file last modified time. Here I
have placed it as 5 minutes. Only if the file has not been modified for last 5
minutes it goes and creates the .trg file. The timing can be extended as
needed. This should prevent the script from creating .trg files for the files
that are getting processed.
#!/bin/bash
cd /hulanas/smartdoc/inbound
for file in *.xml
do
# check if
.trg file already exists, if yes ignore
if [ -a $file.trg ]
then
echo "$file.trg already exists"
# check if the
file has not been modified for more than 5minutes (time can be increased
depending on the requirement)
# if yes, go
ahead and create the .trg file.
# This is to
prevent .trg files from being created for the files that
# might be
getting processed.
elif [ `find $file -type f -mmin +5` ]
then
# create the
.trg file
touch $file.trg
fi
done
