Add Database Version #121

Closed whottel closed 4 years ago

whottel commented 4 years ago

The "DATE" field when running '% abricate --list' appears to be the date when the user installed abricate or executed '% abricate-get_db --db some_database --force' Would it be possible to include a field that reports the version/(date of last update) of the individual databases? (e.g. As of writing this the most recent version of ResFinder is dated 2019-10-01)

Yes that would be nice, but it will depend on me finding a way to preserve the original date of the files I use to build my databases, and then using touch to modify the file dates on my files.

If you want to manually tweak yours on your system, using touch -t xxxxxx -c db/* Type man touch for details.

Great, thanks for the prompt reply.
