numerator

Script that automatically renames files, so they get equally zero left padded names.

Usage

Imagine you have this folder:

PS C:\test> ls

    Directory: C:\test

Mode                 LastWriteTime         Length Name
----                 -------------         ------ ----
-a---          16.12.2022    15:17              0 file-090.jpg
-a---          16.12.2022    15:17              0 file-1.jpg
-a---          16.12.2022    15:17              0 file-100.jpg
-a---          16.12.2022    15:17              0 file-5.jpg
-a---          16.12.2022    15:17              0 file-80.jpg
-a---          16.12.2022    15:17              0 info.txt

And you want all files named "file-XXX.jpg" (except for the "info.txt").

Checking possible renames without actual changes:

pip install numerator
cd C:\test
numerator --dry-run

Renaming 6 files to padding 3
"C:\test"
	1. Planning to rename 'file-1.jpg' to 'file-001.jpg'
	2. Planning to rename 'file-5.jpg' to 'file-005.jpg'
	3. Planning to rename 'file-80.jpg' to 'file-080.jpg'

Actual renaming operation:

cd C:\test
numerator
