I'm looking for a way to get the following information via AppleScript:
- all the information
ls
provides including the creation date/time of a file or folder - MD5 hash, Finder labels and Finder/Spotlight comments
into an output like
46737077 drwxr-xr-x 2 Jonas 68 Oct 4 15:39:34 2012 /Users/Jonas/Desktop/test/test.txt 5 md5_here finder_comment_here
What I currently have is some old code which needs tweaking (creation date/time is missing):
do shell script "find -x " & my_path & " -print0 | xargs -0 ls -d -F -P -l -T -a -e -i -o -p -q " & my_path user name "user" password "pin" with administrator privileges
and some basic looping code for the comments/labels
set results_list to "/Users/Jonas/Desktop/test1.txt /Users/Jonas/Desktop/test2.txt"
set comm to {}
set labels to {}
repeat with counter from 1 to count paragraphs in results_list
tell application "Finder" to set end of comm to comment of item ((POSIX file (paragraph counter in results_list)) as string)
tell application "Finder" to set end of labels to label index of item ((POSIX file (paragraph counter in results_list)) as string)
end repeat
but now I'm kind of stuck in combining this all together.
ls
with the parameters you need and pipe it to a text file?
