exclude some files before processing

[stork]

hi,

I use this script: http://www.filebot.net/scripts/sorty.groovy and would like to exclude some files before

Code: Select all

	
// fetch subtitles
	files += getSubtitles(file:files)

Essentially moving them immediately with

Code: Select all

rename(file:files, db:'TVRage', format:episodeFormat, strict:false)

before subtiltes are fetched.

what would be the way to go here?

The variables files is a list of files that gets passed into each of those filebot functions. So just add some code for filtering the list you pass into any of those functions.

Sure, but I'm a bit overwhelmed in regard to groovy. is "files" a predefined list or can I do something like

Code: Select all

	def subs = files{ 
	!(it =~ /(?i:Futurama.)/) \
	&& !(it =~ /(?i:Family Guy.)/) \
	}

	// fetch subtitles
	subs += getSubtitles(file:subs)

	
	rename(file:subs, db:'TVRage', format:episodeFormat, strict:false)

right now this throws some (for me) unintelligible errors..

You'll need to check the code on where the input file list comes from.

Looking at your code I guess you get the basic idea but don't really get groovy collections:
http://groovy.codehaus.org/Collections

e.g.

Code: Select all

def words = ['ant', 'buffalo', 'cat', 'dinosaur']
assert words.findAll{ w -> w.size() > 4 } == ['buffalo', 'dinosaur']
