I have to create a job in Talend which will connect to One FTP. The FTP is having various files for each day with same prefix but different timestamp appended(yyyymmddhhmmss) in the filename. Example -
MyFile20151123142020.xml
MyFile20151123154748.xml
My requirement is to pick the latest or most recent file and copy to my local. I understand that this could be achieved either by referring to the latest timestamp in the filename or referring to the last modified time. I thought of proceeding with the later and my job looks like below -
I dont know how to proceed further and how to use the latest mtime value to pick the most recent file.
After getting file properties, wen need to sort files by mtime or by basename then pick the first.
tSortRow : sort by mtime or basename if they have same pattern.
tSampleRow : "1" to get the first
tFTPGet : file mask = row3.basename (row3 the output flow of tSampleRow)
