I am looking to create a python script which can take a date to move file from one s3 folder to another s3 folder. Now while moving it uses created date to create folder in target i.e. stage/2023/01/12 and copy the file to this new folder. Thanks Param
I have used boto3 but not sure how to achieve that
To get the modification or creation date of each file, look here. It explains how to get the modification or creation date (returned as POSIX timestamp, i.e. seconds from the Unix epoch, January 1 1970).
You'll likely want to make the POSIX timestamp easier to work with by using the python datetime module; you'll begin by converting to a datetime object with date.fromtimestamp(your_posix_timestamp_here)
To programmatically create folders for year, month, and day, and copy the file to that folder: First pull the year, month, and day out of the datetime object, then do something like this:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import os
from pathlib import Path
Path('2023/01/12/').mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True) # make nested folders for year, month, day
shutil.move("path/to/current/file.foo", "2023/01/12/file.foo") # move the file
Hope that helps!
