I have setup the docker container to run the model evaluation.
Write a bash script to rename all files of the form "merged_*" to "finished_*". I want to call it by running bash rename.sh /path/to/files.
Write a bash script to rename all files of the form "merged_*" to "finished_*". I want to call it by running bash rename.sh /path/to/files.
To solve this problem, we need to create a bash script that renames all files in a specified directory from the format "merged_*" to "finished_*". The script should be called with the directory path as an argument and handle common error cases such as missing arguments or non-existent directories. ### Approach 1. **Check Command Line Arguments**: Ensure the user provides exactly one argument, which is the directory path containing the files to be renamed. 2. **Validate Directory Existence**: Verify that the specified directory exists. If not, display an error message and exit. 3. **Iterate Over Files**: Loop through all files in the specified directory that match the pattern "merged_*". 4. **Rename Files**: For each file found, generate the new filename by replacing "merged" with "finished" and rename the file using the `mv` command. Ensure the script handles filenames correctly, including those that might start with a hyphen. ### Solution Code
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 | #!/bin/bash # Check if the correct number of arguments is provided if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then echo "Usage: $0 /path/to/files" exit 1 fi dir="$1" # Check if the directory exists if [ ! -d "$dir" ]; then echo "Error: Directory $dir does not exist." exit 1 fi # Loop through each file matching the pattern merged_* in the directory for file in "$dir"/merged_*; do if [ -f "$file" ]; then # Replace 'merged' with 'finished' in the filename newname="${file/merged/finished}" mv -- "$file" "$newname" fi done |
I extracted the following code from that output:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 | #!/bin/bash # Check if the correct number of arguments is provided if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then echo "Usage: $0 /path/to/files" exit 1 fi dir="$1" # Check if the directory exists if [ ! -d "$dir" ]; then echo "Error: Directory $dir does not exist." exit 1 fi # Loop through each file matching the pattern merged_* in the directory for file in "$dir"/merged_*; do if [ -f "$file" ]; then # Replace 'merged' with 'finished' in the filename newname="${file/merged/finished}" mv -- "$file" "$newname" fi done |
Running the following program:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 | #!/bin/bash # Check if the correct number of arguments is provided if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then echo "Usage: $0 /path/to/files" exit 1 fi dir="$1" # Check if the directory exists if [ ! -d "$dir" ]; then echo "Error: Directory $dir does not exist." exit 1 fi # Loop through each file matching the pattern merged_* in the directory for file in "$dir"/merged_*; do if [ -f "$file" ]; then # Replace 'merged' with 'finished' in the filename newname="${file/merged/finished}" mv -- "$file" "$newname" fi done |
final: True Resulting in output: True
