A command line tool to rename zip files to their parent directory name and copy (or move) them to other directory.

Suppose zip files are placed like this.

./sample/
└── dirs
    ├── dir1
    │   └── hoge.zip
    └── dir2
        └── fuga.zip

In order to copy these zips to sample directory with renaming them, run the following

python /path/to/colzips.py ./sample/dirs/ -d ./sample/

to get

./sample/
├── dir1.zip
├── dir2.zip
└── dirs
    ├── dir1
    │   └── hoge.zip
    └── dir2
        └── fuga.zip

The same result can be derived by running

python /path/to/colzips.py ./sample/ -d ./sample/

since it searches files recursively.

If you would like to move zip files instead of copying them, simply add -m option.

python /path/to/colzips.py ./sample/ -d ./sample/ -m

For more (nothing much) information, run

python /path/to/colzips.py --help

The script depends only on standard libraries and click library. The following step can be skipped if you have these libraries with appropriate versions in your environment (see pyproject.toml).

• Tested Environment
  • Windows 10 + WSL2 + Ubuntu 20.04
  • python 3.10.5 (pyenv 2.3.2) + poetry (1.1.11)

Follow a typical routine of setting up a virtual environment by pyenv + poetry.

Copy this project in some way, for instance, by git clone or create a repository from this template project.

git clone https://github.com/Shena4746/collect-zips-py.git
cd ./collect-zips-py

Enable python 3.10.5 at the top of the project directory. We do it simply by pyenv here.

pyenv local 3.10.5

It fails if you have not downloaded python 3.10.5. Run the following to download it, and try the previous command again.

pyenv install 3.10.5

Locate the python interpreter at {project-top}/.venv. Then let poetry perform a local installation of dependency.

python3 -m venv .venv
poetry install --no-dev

Make sure that poetry uses the intended python interpreter.

poetry run which python
poetry run python --version
