Trying to create a script that will take a tv show video file and move it into the correct folder in my TV directory hierarchy.
ie. example filenames:
archer.2009.s01e01.publichd.mkv
archer.s05e10.dimension.mkv
I would like these moved to: Television/Archer/Season 1/ and Television/Archer/Season 5/ respectively and create them if they don't already exist.
Here's what I have so far, right now it's only sorting based on season for one particular show, Archer. Planning to expand that once I get it working:
#!/bin/bash
for season in 01 02 03 04 05 #06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
do
echo 'Season ' $season
#find -iname *archer*s$season\*.*
var=$(find -iname *archer*s$season\*.*)
var=$(echo $var | cut -c 3-)
echo $var
var2=$(sed "s/0//" <<< $season)
var3=$(echo "Season $var2/")
echo $var3
if [[ -z "$var" ]]
then
:
else
mkdir -p /home/adam/Downloads/Television/Archer/$var3;
mv "./$var" "/home/adam/Downloads/Television/Archer/$var3"
fi
done
I'm having problems creating/moving the files to the $var3 directory variable. It does have a space in the name which I know is giving me the problems. I already have a large library of shows in this format though so I'm rather not change it.
Any help would be appreciated - I know the script is VERY primitive, I'm just piecing it together as I go.
You need to put quotes around var3 when using it.
mkdir "$var3"
