Rename video files based on information scraped from thetvdb.com
Project description
Scrappy
Scrappy provides an intuitive interface for renaming video files based on information scraped from thetvdb.com! In short, you can turn something like bsg_301.avi into Battlestar.Galactica.S03.E01.Occupation.avi.
Scrappy provides a command-line app and a GUI app (coming soon), as well as a documented API for integrating scrape-based renaming into 3rd party applications.
Installation
Most users will want to install Scrappy through pip.
pip install Scrappy --user
Developers can clone the master branch and fork locally.
git clone https://github.com/louist87/Scrappy.git
Note: tests can be run by invoking nosetests -w tests/ from Scrappy’s root directory. Please ensure that nosetests pass before submitting your pull request
API
Simple API Call
import scrappy.core as scrappy # Initialize a scrape # Series name is automatically inferred scrape = scrappy.Scrape('its always sunny in philadelphia 101.mkv') # Query TheTVDB for data and rename if scrape.map_episode_info(): scrape.rename_files(test=True) # test file rename (no changes committed when test == True)
Advanced API Use
The scrappy API provides options for:
Glob pattern matching
Selecting from file name formats (and defining custom formatters)
Selecting from multiple TVDB query results
Fixing errors
Documentation for these functions can be found on the API wiki page.
Application
Manual Scraping
Scrappy also functions as a command-line and GUI application.
To start the interactive GUI application, invoke the scrappy.py script without specifying any files.
Launching Scrappy while passing files will launch the command-line app. When using the command-line app, you are free to either define all of the parameters in the form of command-line arguments, or use settings defined in the configuration file.
The Scrappy application docstring is as follows:
Usage: scrappy [PATH] ... [options] -a --auto Automatically scrape and rename without user interaction. -p --profile User-specified profile -i ID --tvdbid ID Specify TVDB id -l LANG --lang LANG Specify language code [default: en]. --confidence Lower bound to consider a guessed series name [default: 0.] --thresh Threshold for series name matching with TVDB query [default: 0.] --interactive Manually select show from TVDB query results. -t --test Test run. Do not modify files. -c --cfg Use alternate config file
Full documentation for the command-line application can be found here.
