LastWriteTime of directory

2022-11-26 11:20

Hey there,

I want to select all remote subfolders with a specific LastWriteTime, in this case later than yesterday. I don't want to select the files in the folders, just the folder itself.

$mask = "*>=yesterday"
$files =
   $session.EnumerateRemoteFiles(
      $remotePath, $mask, [WinSCP.EnumerationOptions]::MatchDirectories) |
   Select-Object -ExpandProperty FullName               
echo $files

This does not work. Any idea on how to make this work?

The Session.EnumerateRemoteFiles supports only trivial file masks, definitely not time constraints.

You have to use RemoteFileInfo.LastWriteTime to select the desired folders:

$limit = [System.DateTime]::Today.AddDays(-1)
$opts =
    [WinSCP.EnumerationOptions]::AllDirectories -bor
    [WinSCP.EnumerationOptions]::EnumerateDirectories
$files =
     $session.EnumerateRemoteFiles(
         $remotePath, $Null, $opts) |
     Where-Object { $_.IsDirectory -and ($_.LastWriteTime -gt $limit) } |
     Select-Object -ExpandProperty FullName
