Check the "Last modified" date on FTP

Post by hcporto » 03 Jan 2015 01:51

Hi all, happy 2015.

I've been searching and could not find the answer.

Is there any condition os scrit i can use to check a file last modified date on ftp (or dropbox), compare it with a file on a specifc folder and if the file on the ftp is newer make the download to replace the one in the folder?

Thanks for your time.

Hi,

Happy New Year!

The built-in actions don't allow to check the timestamp of a file. I have some items on my todo-list to allow things like this.
You could use an app/plugin like folder sync or rsync backup. The latter shows an activity when the sync is executed but otherwise worked well the last time I have used it.

Regards,
Martin
