I'm trying to create a folder in windows with current timestamp details and copy some folder to it. I tried as below:
bat 'for /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%i in ("%date%") do SET today_fname=%%i_%%j_%%k'
bat 'for /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%i in ("%date%") do md today_fname'
bat 'cd %today_fname%'
bat 'copy "C:/Program Files (x86)/Jenkins/workspace/jenkins Pipeline/application/bin/Debug/netcoreapp2.1/os/publish"'
It ends up creating a folder with a timestamp name and copying the folder contains to current directory instead of Cd to newly created folder
I'm trying to create a folder with a name 05_14_18_7_31
and copy the contains present in this location C:/Program Files (x86)/Jenkins/workspace/jenkins Pipeline/application/bin/Debug/netcoreapp2.1/os/publish
to 05_14_18_7_31
Here is something you can try:
@echo off
rem Create datestamp:
set "datestamp=%date:~4,-8%_%date:~7,-5%_%date:~12,2%"
rem Request for me, if you are not using `dd/mm/yy` format, to provide another script for your occassion.
rem Create timestamp:
set "timestamp=%time:~0,2%_%time:~3,2%"
rem Create folder:
md %datestamp%_%timestamp%
xcopy /E "C:/Program Files (x86)/Jenkins/workspace/jenkins Pipeline/application/bin/Debug/netcoreapp2.1/os/publish" "%datestamp%_%timestamp%"
Hope this helps!
