Use and complete the template provided. The entire template must be completed. If you don't, your post may be deleted!

  1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:
    Write a script that performs a post processing action:

The run time environment of the script has the following environment variablesavailable when the script is fired.

� TYPE: This can either be 'session' or 'file'. It indicates if transfer eventis a file or session event
� FILE: The file being transferred
� DIRECTION: This can be 'recv' or 'send'.Relative to the script, is thefile being sent or received.
� STARTSTOP: This can be 'start' or 'stop'. Specifies if we are at the startor end of a file or session transfer event.
� STATE: Either 'success', 'failed', or 'started'

You can assume that the script will be automatically executed on the followingevents (TYPE=session and STARTSTOP=start; TYPE=session andSTARTSTOP=stop; TYPE=file and STARSTOP=start;TYPE=file andSTARTSTOP=stop):

  1. Relevant commands, code, scripts, algorithms:

  2. The attempts at a solution (include all code and scripts):

Not sure where to start, scripting is new to me

So, How do you check what a variable currently is?
Or how do you detect if a variable has a known value? This should look familiar

if [        ]

Hint: TYPE, FILE, DIRECTION, and STARTSTOP are variables that tell your code what to do.
