I wrote this but it doesn't work.
In giorni
I put the maximum days of stay in the SD andfile_dir
is the default location where the files are analyzed.
import os
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
file_dir = "/home/pi/" #location
giorni = 2 #n max of days
giorni_pass = datetime.now() - timedelta(giorni)
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(file_dir):
for file in files:
filetime = datetime.fromtimestamp(os.path.getctime(file))
if filetime > giorni_pass:
os.remove(file)
Solved with:
for file in files:
path = os.path.join(file_dir, file)
filetime = datetime.fromtimestamp(os.path.getctime(path))
if filetime > giorni_pass:
os.remove(path)
Because "Filenames" contains a list of files whose path name is relative to "file_dir" and to make operations on those files should first get the absolute path, using path = os.path.join(file_dir, file)
