python script to walk folders and copy some extentions..
$10-30 AUD
Paid on delivery
Hey,
I need a Python script to perform tasks below.
1 - It will iterate through the given paths and their nested subfolders to find PDF and WORLD documents and will copy them to the destination folder. SO ultimate aim is go through the folders and copy PDF AND WORLD files onto another folder.
2 - Trick is, Some folders have only PDF, some only WORLD documents along with different extensions, But some folders have the same file name with both extensions (doc or docx and pdf), if the same file has the both (.doc or docx) and .pdf then copy the world document ignore the pdf.
SO WORLD document is the prefered one if the folder has the same file name with both extensions.
Example: given path is C:\foo (it has nested subfolders) and script finds [login to view URL], [login to view URL], [login to view URL], [login to view URL] on a folder.
it needs to copy [login to view URL],[login to view URL] and [login to view URL] files onto the destination folder ([login to view URL] is ignored as [login to view URL] exists)
- source path list and destination can be hard-coded
-
Script will run on Windows machine, preferably python3
This is a quite simple project, won't take more than 30-45 minutes if you are good at Python scripting.
Needs to be done in 1-2 hours!!
Budget is $25
-- I won't deal with middle-man
-- Neither auto-bid.
-- as I mentioned, needs to be done in 1-2 hours.. not in a day or two or ten.
-- don't bother if you want more than $25
