Installation process

Getting Started

• What is a script?
• Script vs Program

Demo scripts

• trello-youtube-dl
• address-finder
• pretty-episode-name

pretty-episode-name

What you usually do is,

1. Navigate to the folder & display the list of files
2. Enter the extension of the files to rename
3. Get the SEASON NUMBER from the old name
4. List old name and new name & confirm RENAMING

With python3 active on your terminal or cmd use the following commands to learn:

# basics of os and navigation
import os
os.name
os.getcwd()  
os.chdir('path')  # windows (C:\Desktop\csi-python-scripts) & use "" for spaces
os.path.splitext(x)[-1]  # to get the file extension
for x in os.listdir():
	print(os.path.splitext(x)[-1],'\n')


# Let's rename the cover photo:
os.rename('cover.jpg', 'art.jpg')


# Regex - identify the season name
for i in os.listdir():
	print(re.findall("S..E..",i))
