find the last modified date of a directory in swift

To find the last modified date of a directory in Swift, you can use the FileManager.default.attributesOfItem(atPath:) method to retrieve the file attributes for the directory. You can then use the FileAttributeKey.modificationDate key to access the last modified date of the directory.

main.swift
let fileManager = FileManager.default
let directoryPath = "/path/to/directory"
do {
    let attributes = try fileManager.attributesOfItem(atPath: directoryPath)
    let modificationDate = attributes[FileAttributeKey.modificationDate] as? Date
    print("Last modified date: \(modificationDate)")
} catch {
    print("Error: \(error)")
}

Here, directoryPath is the path to the directory whose last modified date you want to find. The code tries to retrieve the attributes of the directory using FileManager.default.attributesOfItem(atPath:), and then retrieves the FileAttributeKey.modificationDate attribute from the returned dictionary. Finally, the code prints the last modified date of the directory.
