So I created a simple bash script to compare dates of the current date and 
last date of a directory that was last modified.

What I am looking for is something done in Ansible that can take the 
converted date string of two variables and subtract the difference.

We have these DAT MacAfee files, I just don’t like the bash script I 
created and looking for something that can be done with a yaml playbook. 

So here is my script: 


#!/bin/bash
# TO PRINT THE NUMBER OF DAYS SINCE LAST AV UPDATE
past_date=$(du -h --time testdate | grep -Eo 
'[[:digit:]]{4}-[[:digit:]]{2}-[[:digit:]]{2}')


# Perform a subtraction of past_date string
# from today's string divided by seconds times 12 hour days  
diff=$((($(date +%s)-$(date +%s --date "$past_date"))/(3600*24)))
echo It has been $diff days since the last AV DAT update



Thanks in advance.
