Upload today files with multiple includes and excludes

2022-07-27 19:46

I had this working with synchronize but I just found out that the files will be removed from the destination site daily, so I am looking at using put instead.

Only trouble I am having is finding the correct syntax using the today keyword with multiple file includes and excludes (it works if I don’t specify files created “today” )

Code is below, I changed the file names for privacy reasons, but the structure of the script is the same.

lcd "S:\folder1\folder2\Home\"
cd "/remote/Home/"
 
put -filemask=">=today; filename*.BZ2; filename*.json; 01*.PSV; 02*.PSV; 03*.PSV; 06*.PSV; 05*.PSV;07*.PSV; 08*.PSV; 09*.PSV; 10*.PSV; 11*.PSV | *.PDF; *.DON; *.txt; filename*.PSV; dirname/" -resumesupport=50000 -rawtransfersettings[2] ExcludeHiddenFiles=1 ExcludeEmptyDirectories=1 "uploaddir"
 
exit

Anyone have examples of doing this or better yet know what I am doing wrong with my script?

You have to specify the time constraint at each of the file mask:

-filemask="filename*.BZ2>=today; filename*.json>=today; ..."

That makes sense. However, I am getting the following error (I trimmed down the script to just one file for the purpose of testing:)

That's because you have dropped the mandatory "source" parameter.
See https://winscp.net/eng/docs/scriptcommand_put
Your original script had "uploaddir".
