I may be asking this in the wrong place but I have a tal page where I want
to use python to display only the most recent addition to a folder of files.
I can sort the folder and return all the files easily with:
return sequence.sort(files, (('bobobase_modification_time', 'cmp',
'desc'),))
How do I return just the most recent one? (I tried sorting and then using
return max(files) but that doesn't give me all the properties and I need
them for display)
If it's sorted, you can use a Python slice::
return sequence.sort(files, (('bobobase_modification_time',
'cmp', 'desc'),))[0]
The trick is the last three characters. See
