Using python to batch modify word file names,
Preface
Recently, I accidentally formatted the hard disk. Because the files were not backed up at the time, all the files were lost, so I had to take remedial measures, some data is recovered using the file recovery software, but all file names are lost. All files have only the code, as shown in the figure below:
Tens of thousands of files need to be manually changed to next year. Therefore, I wrote a python script to replace this complicated operation.
Implementation Analysis
It is impossible for the program to understand what is in my Word documents, but fortunately, all the content in my Word documents has titles, and most of the titles are exactly the file names of this document, as a result, I plan to treat the document title as a file name, and most of the file names are the first section of the content, so I have the idea. So I started to write programs.
Implementation Method
First, install the python-docx library and install it directly using pip:pip install python-docx
The specific procedure is as follows:
#-*-Coding: UTF-8-*-"NameChange1.0 This is a program that automatically modifies the name of an word document. author: fanghao "from docx import entimport OS # This is the directory where all the word files to be modified are stored. dir_1 =" C: \ Users \ visg \ Desktop \ 4 "filenames = OS. listdir (dir_1) # automatically modify for a in range (len (filenames): print (filenames [a]) dir_docx = dir_1 + "\" + filenames [a] try: document = Document (dir_docx) Does T: print ("error") else: new_name = document. paragraphs [0]. text + '.docx' try: OS. rename (dir_1 + OS. sep + filenames [a], dir_1 + OS. sep + new_name) T (FileNotFoundError, FileExistsError, OSError): print ("FileNotFoundError ")
You can modify the specific directory by yourself. Here, I skipped the duplicate files after the name is changed.
However, some of the recovered documents are docx, some are doc files, and docx files can be renamed through the above method, but the doc file has a problem. So we can only convert the doc file into a docx file first, and then use the above method to modify it. How to turn doc into docx, here there is a blog, a Daniel wrote a good plug-in can be a good implementation (http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_5488e3a90100u8ux.html), the test is easy to use!
Note:The above method is acceptable for most Word documents, but some documents cannot be modified due to the format or other reasons. You can directly modify these documents manually.
