Help improve python sortfile by extension and size
Hi i had this python script to sort source dir by file extension and cp to individual extension destination dir. i would like to ask on how to add an option for size sorting somewhat like
# <script.py> -size <range 10k-20k>,<range 30k-40k>,..... source destination
Im a beginner and doing my homeworks for this one. Hope someone can add to the scripts.
Quote:
import os
import os.path
import shutil
import sys
source = sys.argv[1]
destination = sys.argv[2]
while not os.path.exists(source):
source = raw_input('Enter a valid source directory\n')
while not os.path.exists(destination):
destination = raw_input('Enter a valid destination directory\n')
for root, dirs, files in os.walk(source, topdown=False):
for file in files:
extension = os.path.splitext(file)[1][1:].upper()
destinationPath = os.path.join(destination,extension)
if not os.path.exists(destinationPath):
os.mkdir(destinationPath)
if os.path.exists(os.path.join(destinationPath,file)):
print 'WARNING: this file was not copied :' + os.path.join(root,file)
else:
shutil.copy2(os.path.join(root,file), destinationPath)

Options: -a address manually specify the address
-r URL NAT router, use web IP detection
-A text
scan syslog for an IP after text (Unix only)
-F filename
guess the WAN IP from a firewall log
-b backup mx option ON (default OFF)
-c custom dns option (default dynamic)
-d dir directory for data files (default current)
-e script
execute script after a successful update
-f force update regardless of current state

For help with different options: python ipcheck.py -h For supported devices listing : python ipcheck.py --devices For long detailed help
text : python ipcheck.py --help
Make sure you can write to the current directory for data files and that you always run from the same directory. The first time you run
the script, you will be asked to run with the --makedat option in addition to any other options. This will create the data files for the
hostnames and options your specify on the command line. You should only do this once. Subsequent runs should be made without the --make-
dat option.
For help with different options: python ipcheck.py -h For supported devices listing : python ipcheck.py --devices For long detailed help

Example 1: the external IP is on eth0 of the current machine python ipcheck.py -l -i eth0 username password hostnames
Example 2: you are using the Linksys routing device python ipcheck.py -l -L linksyspassword username password hostnames
Example 3: you want to use web based ip detection python ipcheck.py -l -r checkip.dyndns.org:8245 ...
where ... is your dyndns username password and hostnames. Hostnames should be comma delimited if there are more than one.
