Code to change poster names from James Bond.png to James Bond/poster.png

[meisnate12]

If you have a folder with a bunch of Images in it named after collections like James Bond.png and you want them to be inside a folder named poster.png like James Bond/poster.png you can use the code below just change <PATH_TO_FODLER> to your folder path and then every file inside will be converted to a folder.

import os

folder = "<PATH_TO_FODLER>"

_, _, filenames = next(os.walk(folder))

for filename in filenames:
    name, ext = os.path.splitext(filename)
    os.mkdir(os.path.join(folder, name))
    os.rename(os.path.join(folder, filename), os.path.join(folder, name, "poster{}".format(ext)))

Hi I've added some modifications to your script I would like to share. This will traverse through each folder recursively making it useful if you want to add posters for the movies inside the collection as well.

import os

folder = "./assets"

for dirpath, dirs, files in os.walk(folder):	
    for filename in files:
        name, ext = os.path.splitext(filename)
        fname = os.path.join(dirpath,filename)
        if name != 'poster' and name != 'background':
            os.makedirs(os.path.join(dirpath, name),exist_ok=True)
            os.rename(os.path.join(dirpath, filename), os.path.join(dirpath, name, "poster{}".format(ext)))
