Filename timestamp in Windows CMD batch script

问题:

I have a batch script that outputs a file, and I'm trying to ensure that each time the script is executed, no existing files are overwritten, so I'm trying to put a timestamp on it.

Currently I have this:

set  stamp=%DATE:/=-%_%TIME::=-%

But if the time is 1-9 AM, it gives something like:

13-06-2012_ instead of a full 13-06-2012_12-39-37.28

How can I fix this?

I'm using Windows 7, and the output of echo %date% %time% in a command line window is (my clock format for 'short date' is set to display 3-letter months):

03-Sep-12 9:06:21.54

---

Edit: I've been using the following timestamp for a good while now, works well.

set timestamp=%DATE:/=-%_%TIME::=-%
set timestamp=%timestamp: =%

It produced a timestamp like: 18-03-2013_13-37-43.26, by replacing / and : in %TIME% and %DATE%, then stripping white space. The whitespace was the problem in my original question, really.

The first four lines of this code will give you reliable YY DD MM YYYY HH Min Sec variables in XP Pro and higher, using WMIC.

@echo off
for /f "tokens=2 delims==" %%a in ('wmic OS Get localdatetime /value') do set "dt=%%a"
set "YY=%dt:~2,2%" & set "YYYY=%dt:~0,4%" & set "MM=%dt:~4,2%" & set "DD=%dt:~6,2%"
set "HH=%dt:~8,2%" & set "Min=%dt:~10,2%" & set "Sec=%dt:~12,2%"

set "datestamp=%YYYY%%MM%%DD%" & set "timestamp=%HH%%Min%%Sec%"
set "fullstamp=%YYYY%-%MM%-%DD%_%HH%-%Min%-%Sec%"
echo datestamp: "%datestamp%"
echo timestamp: "%timestamp%"
echo fullstamp: "%fullstamp%"
pause

See Stack Overflow question How to get current datetime on Windows command line, in a suitable format for using in a filename?.

Create a file, date.bat:

@echo off
For /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%a in ('date /t') do (set mydate=%%c-%%a-%%b)
For /f "tokens=1-3 delims=/:/ " %%a in ('time /t') do (set mytime=%%a-%%b-%%c)
set mytime=%mytime: =% 
echo %mydate%_%mytime%

Run date.bat:

C:\>date.bat
2012-06-14_12-47-PM

UPDATE:

You can also do it with one line like this:

for /f "tokens=2-8 delims=.:/ " %%a in ("%date% %time%") do set DateNtime=%%c-%%a-%%b_%%d-%%e-%%f.%%g

Here's a batch script I made to return a timestamp. An optional first argument may be provided to be used as a field delimiter. For example:

c:\sys\tmp>timestamp.bat
20160404_144741
c:\sys\tmp>timestamp.bat -
2016-04-04_14-45-25
c:\sys\tmp>timestamp.bat :
2016:04:04_14:45:29

@echo off
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
:: put your desired field delimiter here.
:: for example, setting DELIMITER to a hyphen will separate fields like so:
:: yyyy-MM-dd_hh-mm-ss
::
:: setting DELIMITER to nothing will output like so:
:: yyyyMMdd_hhmmss
::
SET DELIMITER=%1

SET DATESTRING=%date:~-4,4%%DELIMITER%%date:~-7,2%%DELIMITER%%date:~-10,2%
SET TIMESTRING=%TIME%
::TRIM OFF the LAST 3 characters of TIMESTRING, which is the decimal point and hundredths of a second
set TIMESTRING=%TIMESTRING:~0,-3%

:: Replace colons from TIMESTRING with DELIMITER
SET TIMESTRING=%TIMESTRING::=!DELIMITER!%

:: if there is a preceeding space substitute with a zero
echo %DATESTRING%_%TIMESTRING: =0%

回答4:

for /f "tokens=2-8 delims=.:/ " %%a in ("%date% %time: =0%") do set DateNtime=%%c-%%a-%%b_%%d-%%e-%%f.%%g
echo %DateNtime%

Or, from the command line:

for /f "tokens=2-8 delims=.:/ " %a in ("%date% %time: =0%") do echo %c-%a-%b_%d-%e-%f.%g

EDIT: As per bryce's non-standard time/date specs. (03-Sep-12 9:06:21.54)

@echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for /f "tokens=1-7 delims=.:/- " %%a in ("%date% %time%") do (
  if "%%b"=="Jan" set MM=01
  if "%%b"=="Feb" set MM=02
  if "%%b"=="Mar" set MM=03
  if "%%b"=="Apr" set MM=04
  if "%%b"=="May" set MM=05
  if "%%b"=="Jun" set MM=06
  if "%%b"=="Jul" set MM=07
  if "%%b"=="Aug" set MM=08
  if "%%b"=="Sep" set MM=09
  if "%%b"=="Oct" set MM=10
  if "%%b"=="Nov" set MM=11
  if "%%b"=="Dec" set MM=12
  set HH=0%%d
  set HH=!HH:~-2!
  echo 20%%c-!MM!-%%a_!HH!-%%e-%%f.%%g
)
endlocal

Windows batch log file name in 2018-02-08_14.32.06.34.log format:

setlocal
set d=%DATE:~-4%-%DATE:~4,2%-%DATE:~7,2%
set t=%time::=.% 
set t=%t: =%
set logfile="%d%_%t%.log"

ping localhost -n 11>%1/%logfile%
endlocal

回答6:

It wants the full time in DD-MM-YYYY_HH-MM-SS.TT where TT is the ticks. The exception says it all.

回答7:

Thanks to an answer to Stack Overflow quesion Creating a file name as a timestamp in a batch job, I found that it was a space terminating the filename.

回答8:

In the past, I've used a .cmd script I found on the Internet. I hate the way localization normally messes with dates. Anytime you have dates in filenames (or anywhere else, if I may be so bold) I figure you want them in ISO 8601 format:

2015-02-19T14:54:51Z

or something else that has Y M D H M in that order, such as

2015-02-19 14:54

because it fixes the MDY / DMY ambiguity and because it's sortable as text.

I don't know where I got that .cmd script, but it may have been http://ss64.com/nt/syntax-getdate.html, which works beautifully on my YYYY-MM-DD Windows 8.1 and on a M/D/YYYY vanilla install of Windows 7. Both give the same format:

2015-02-09 04:43
