I am writing this code because I need to go to a folder that contains several images with names that I need to change. I need to get the useful number from the file name, search for that number on an excel file, return the correspondent value for that row but a different column, and rename the file with the new value found in the different column. I also need it to know if the useful number obtained from the file name is present in column 1 or column 2 (Is the value present in Nbr1 or in Nbr2?). My problem is that the "useful number" on the file name is a string, and the values in Excel are numbers. I have tried changed them both to string or both to integer, but the columns of the DataFrame remain an object, so I can't iterate over it and find the value that I need.
Nbr1 Nbr2 Nbr3
456 9630 778899
123 8520 445566
999 7410 112233
As an example, if an image is named "999-3.jpeg" I want it to be renamed as *"112233c.jpeg", "112233" being the correspondent value for "999" in another column of an Excel file.
Feel free to criticize my code, I know it's not too organized or clean, but what I care about the most is getting it to work. Thanks a lot for your help.
I have used pandas and os, and changed several times from string to integer both the file name and the values from the DataFrame. I have also stored the columns on a variable each to see if I could iterate over them, but it didn't work.
import os
import pandas as pd
os.chdir("C:\\Users\\Documents\\Rename")
changes = {
"1":"a",
"2":"b",
"3":"c"
}
def pic_rename(separator):
table = pd.read_excel("List.xlsx")
df = pd.DataFrame(table)
column1 = df["Nbr1"]
column2 = df["Nbr2"]
name_list = []
for f in os.listdir():
file_name, file_ext = os.path.splitext(f)
if file_ext == (".jpg" or ".jpeg"):
useful_name, extra = file_name.split(separator)
useful_name = int(useful_name.strip())
name_list.append(useful_name)
counter1 = 0
counter2 = 0
for x in name_list:
if x in column1:
counter2 = 0
if counter1 == 0:
df = df.set_index("Nbr1", drop = True, append = False, inplace = False, verify_integrity=False)
result = df.loc[x, "Nbr3"]
extra = extra.strip()[-1]
final_name = str(result) + str(changes.get(extra))
os.rename(f, result + file_ext)
counter1 += 1
else:
result = df.loc[x, "Nbr3"]
extra = extra.strip()[-1]
final_name = str(result) + str(changes.get(extra))
os.rename(f, result + file_ext)
counter1 += 1
elif x in column2:
counter1 = 0
if counter2 == 0:
df = df.set_index("Nbr2", drop = True, append = False, inplace = False, verify_integrity=False)
result = df.loc[x, "Nbr3"]
extra = extra.strip()[-1]
final_name = str(result) + str(changes.get(extra))
os.rename(f, result + file_ext)
counter2 += 1
else:
result = df.loc[x, "Nbr3"]
extra = extra.strip()[-1]
final_name = str(result) + str(changes.get(extra))
os.rename(f, result + file_ext)
counter2 += 1
else:
print("This number isn't in Column 1 or 2")
else:
print("This file is not an image")
separator = input("Please insert the character that separates the useful name from the extra that you don't want")
pic_rename(separator)
The latest error I have been getting is "TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable" but I have gotten a couple more errors, mainly while trying to iterate with the filename through the columns ("Nbr1") and trying to get as a result "Nbr3". I can be more specific with the Error of the code in a couple of hours.
Edit: The issue I'm currently getting is that the code works and iterates, but it's not finding the value inside the Excel column (even though I know it's there), and it's skipping the if and just printing my else statement.
I didn't entirely get your code but here are some observations.
You can change the dataframe values by using:
df.astype(str)
They will become 'object' type, but that's fine for assignment/comparison with strings.
To iterate over a dataframe you can use:
for index, row in df.iterrows():
That will return the index of the row and the entire row of the dataframe you're iterating. Then to get some value of a columns of the current row you can simply use:
value1 = row['Nbr1']
value2 = row['Nbr2']
