A collection of utilities for CGI-VFX to copy files from one place to another, find out basic stat differences between them and handle file sequences and textures (tx files).
pip install synchronizer
- Copies src_path to trg_path. Takes both files and directories as source. If given source is a file and it's part of a sequence it'll find and copy the entire sequence of files.
from synchronizer import copier
copier.process_paths(src_path, trg_path, force_overwrite=True, **kwargs)
kwargs: include_tx = True only_tx = True find_sequence = True
- Compares two files or directory paths and return sync status. Sync status refers to name and os.stat() comparisons
from synchronizer import syncstatus
syncstatus.get_sync_status(
src_path, trg_path,
ignore_name=False,
ignore_stats=['st_uid', 'st_gid', 'st_atime',
'st_ctime', 'st_ino', 'st_dev'])
- Compares two paths and returns whichever has the most recent stat time. Default stat used for comparison is st_mtime which is: Time of most recent content modification.
from synchronizer import syncstatus
syncstatus.get_most_recent(src_path, trg_path, use_stat='st_mtime')
- Find and return all files that are part of a sequence matching file_path. If no sequence found, returns None. Two files are enough to make a sequence, even if they're not sequential. This assumes the sequence digits are right beside the file extension. ie: C_myfile_v568.jpg MJ_thisisafileseq_455868.dpx MB_udimsforthewin.1008.tx
