adding directory location to my file output script

[cross...@gmail.com]

Below is my script which create me a html file called pickle.html and then when ran again, it checks if exists and if so appends to the file and creates new one.

I need to tell the script where I want to the html file to go to.

I run this from the working directory and in the same directory is a folder called 'logs' so I would like all the pickle.html files to go to logs.

Suggestions? and Thank you much in advance!


require 'date'

file, new_file = 'pickle.html', DateTime.now.strftime('%s')

if File.exists?('file')
File.rename('file', "pickle_#{new_file}.html")
end

command = %Q(cucumber --format 'Timestamped::HtmlFormatter' --out #{file})

exec command

How about:

file, new_file = 'logs/pickle.html', DateTime.now.strftime('%s')

>if File.exists?('file')

Why are you enclosing file in quotation marks? That's a string
literal, not a variable name.

> File.rename('file', "pickle_#{new_file}.html")

File.rename(file, "logs/pickle_#{new_file}.html")
