Filebot + AMC script with clean option leaving one empty folder

[Zebbe152]

Hi,

I've been using filebot with the AMC script for many years now and I'm extremely happy with it.

However today I noticed that filebot is leaving an empty folder after extracting a rar archive even though I have the clean option included in my script.

Example:

Extracting

Code: Select all

Read archive [ncis.s16e02.720p.hdtv.x264-avs.rar] and extract to [D:\PostProcessingTemp\UnPack\Sonarr\ncis.s16e02.720p.hdtv.x264-avs\NCIS.S16E02.720p.HDTV.x264-AVS]

Extracting files [D:\PostProcessingTemp\UnPack\Sonarr\ncis.s16e02.720p.hdtv.x264-avs\NCIS.S16E02.720p.HDTV.x264-AVS\NCIS.S16E02.720p.HDTV.x264-AVS.mkv]

Cleaning

Code: Select all

Delete D:\PostProcessingTemp\UnPack\Sonarr\ncis.s16e02.720p.hdtv.x264-avs\NCIS.S16E02.720p.HDTV.x264-AVS\NCIS.S16E02.720p.HDTV.x264-AVS.mkv
Delete D:\PostProcessingTemp\UnPack\Sonarr\ncis.s16e02.720p.hdtv.x264-avs\NCIS.S16E02.720p.HDTV.x264-AVS

As you can see it deletes the .mkv file and one of the folders created during extraction, but it leaves one empty folder named "ncis.s16e02.720p.hdtv.x264-avs".

I checked my log and filebot used to delete ALL folders that were created during extraction. According to my log the behavior changed about two months ago.

I'm running Filebot 4.8.4 (r5829) on Windows 10. Is this a bug or has the "clean" feature changed?

I don't think anything has changed in that regards, but clean-up behaviour is quite different depending on your command-line options, especially --action and --def ut_* options you pass in as input. The command-line call and full log would be helpful here, to see what exactly is going on, and to run a similar test myself.

[Zebbe152]

I must say this is very strange. I haven't changed anything in forever. I compared a log from yesterday to one that's a few months older and the only thing that's different is the paths.

I put together a simpler command line for you (not as messy as my original one ). I ran it and the end result is the same, it still leaves an empty folder behind.

Code: Select all

filebot -script fn:amc --output "C:/Filebot" --log-file "C:/Filebot/Logs/amc.log" --action copy --conflict override -non-strict --def clean=y seriesFormat="E:/Test/{n}/{fn}" "ut_label=tv" "ut_title=Lethal.Weapon.S03E02.720p.WEB.x264-TBS" "ut_kind=multi" "ut_dir=F:/Test/Lethal.Weapon.S03E02.720p.WEB.x264-TBS" "extractFolder=D:/PostProcessingTemp/UnPack/Sonarr"

Here's the output

Code: Select all

I also tried it without the extractFolder option, but it still leaves an empty folder.

Maybe fixed. Please try with -script dev:amc to run the latest revision.

[Zebbe152]

Yes, that did it! How long until it works when running fn:amc?

Thanks for the excellent support!

[rednoah]

Please run it for a day or two. Confirm that everything works, and then I'll push a new stable release.

[Zebbe152]

Ok, will do.

[Zebbe152]

I've been running this for two days now and it works great. You can go ahead and push a new stable release.

[rednoah]

Thanks. Script Bundle: 2018-10-05 (536) will roll out within the next 1-2 weeks.
