How to monitor number of files in a folder?
You can achieve this using the FKM plugin or the Toolkit plugin. The script is not supported by ITRS and user is responsible on writing their own script. The following is some examples that you can use.
For Linux:
#!/bin/bash
echo "name, value"
echo "count,"`echo $(($(ls -l | grep -v ^d | wc -l)-1))`
For Windows (for drive other that C: ):
@echo off
CD /D D:\your_folder
setlocal enableextensions
set count=0
for %%x in (*) do set /a count+=1
echo name,value
echo fileCount,%count%
endlocal
By using FKM plugin, enable the wildcardMonitorAllMatches setting on the FKM’s advanced tab.
Note
This will also include the directories on the specified path.
