I'm currently renaming my comic library with lots of numbers and character in filenames, however, they always ending with p01 p02 p03...
Here is my current filenames: 189239427a3cw_p01.jpg, 189239427a3cw_p02.jpg, 189239427a3cw_p03.jpg, 189239563a3dz_p01.jpg, 189239563a3dz_p02.jpg, 189239563a3dz_p03.jpg, 189239563a3dz_p04.png, 190846122b2eb_p01.png, ... (~650 700 more) So my expected filenames should be: 0001_p01.jpg, 0001_p02.jpg, 0001_p03.jpg; 0002_p01.jpg, 0002_p02.jpg, 0002_p03.jpg, 0002_p04.png; 0003_p01.png... Those files are in the same folder. How to do that? Many thanks |

Hi Onion, Fun stuff. I thought I could trick ARen using collision rule numbers, but ended up making this little script instead: >>>>>NOTE: When you run this you must have your files sorted on Filename ascending. (In Pre-batch script:)------------------------------------------------------- const prevSeriesStr = ""; const prevSeriesNr = 0; const prevName1 = ""; --------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Script to process each filename:) //replace series with sequentially-numbered series: // WARNING: If there are more than 99 different comic books, or 99 different pages in // one comic book, this may not work correctly. // Definitely if there are more than 99 comic books. // WARNING 2: Make sure files are sorted on filename, ascending. // ------------------------------------------------------------------- //The following constants go in Pre batch script. //const prevSeriesStr = ""; <- to track the last instance of ORIGINAL part before underscore // for comparison //const prevSeriesNr = 0; <- to track the number we'll be converting to padded string // for comparison //const prevName1 = ""; <- to track the previous NEW NAME for comparison. //---------------------------------------------------------- oldName = item.newBasename.split("_"); oldName1 = oldName[0]; // Part to replace newName2 = oldName[1]; //Part that stays for new filename if (oldName1 != prevSeriesStr) { // Series increments here. Make padded new series and update Pre batch constants: prevSeriesNr += 1; prevSeriesStr = oldName1; // Zero-pad the new string correctly: newName1 = ( prevSeriesNr - 9 >=0 ) ? "00" + prevSeriesNr.toString() : "000" + prevSeriesNr.toString(); prevName1 = newName1; } else { // Still the same seris, so pick up value from constant: newName1 = prevName1; } // Booyah! return newName1 + "_" + newName2; --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sorry about all the comments, that's the way I work. here's what I got with your sample set: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ptyiler6jTieg0a 3VLC7aeZIXAixahXc/view?usp=sharing Best regards, DF |
