[SNIPPET] Match information from the file path

Post by rednoah »

String.match() can be used to match regex patterns from unstructured text.


Copy information from the current file name into the destination file name:

e.g. match 720p / 1080p / etc patterns from the current file name: 1080p

Format: Select all

{ fn.match(/[0-9]{3,4}p/) }
e.g. match an entire section of the current file name: .1080p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DDP5.1.H.264-TEPES

Format: Select all

{ fn.match(/.[0-9]{3,4}p.+/) }
e.g. match keyword from the file name:

Format: Select all

{ '.' + fn.match(/PROPER|REMUX/) }
e.g. match everything between the brackets: [2160p BluRay H.265 10bit HDR] [Group]

Format: Select all

{ fn.match(/\[.*\]/) }
:idea: Use regexr if you need to customize the pattern to better match your files.



:idea: String.matchAll() can be used to match multiple values:

Format: Select all

{ fn.matchAll(/REMASTERED|THEATRICAL|DC/) }


:idea: String.before() and String.after() can be used to match text before or after the given regex pattern:

Format: Select all

{ fn.after(/S[0-9]+E[0-9]+/) }
