Walk through directory structure, look at first file, rename dirin consequence.

[Aldric Giacomoni]

This is pretty ugly and doesn't work.. Can't figure out why, but it
doesn't actually go through the main loop more than once. I'm a little
stuck here.. Any help is welcome

def keep_iterating_until_not_directory()
Dir.glob('*') do |filename|
if File.directory?(filename)
Dir.chdir(filename)
keep_iterating_until_not_directory()
end
break
end
end

def come_back_to_nycom
Dir.chdir("..") while Dir.pwd != "C:/Documents and
Settings/username/My Documents/NYCOM"
end

Dir.glob('*') do |filename|
if File.directory?(filename)
keep_iterating_until_not_directory()
end
puts Dir.pwd
image = DICOM:Object.new(Dir.glob('*')[0], verbose=false, library=lib)
come_back_to_nycom()
if image.get_raw("0008,1090") == "HDI 5000"
File.rename(filename, "HDI5000" + filename)
end
end

File.rename(filename, "HDI5000" + filename)
end
end

something I wrote a while back that works:

def getFilesInDirectory(dir)
Dir[File.join(dir, "*")].collect do |f|
if File.directory?(f) then
getFilesInDirectory(f)
else
f
end
end.flatten
end

then you can use it like:
getFilesInDirectory(Dir.pwd).each do |f|
puts f
end

I think I see what this does.. It's pretty neat. How would I use this to
only parse the first file of any given directory? I can't quite picture
this.

Hi,

This is pretty ugly and doesn't work.. Can't figure out why, but =20
it doesn't actually go through the main loop more than once. I'm =20=
a little stuck here.. Any help is welcome

def keep_iterating_until_not_directory()
Dir.glob('*') do |filename|
if File.directory?(filename)
Dir.chdir(filename)
keep_iterating_until_not_directory()
end
break
end
end

def come_back_to_nycom
Dir.chdir("..") while Dir.pwd !=3D "C:/Documents and Settings/=20
username/ My Documents/NYCOM"
end

Dir.glob('*') do |filename|
if File.directory?(filename)
keep_iterating_until_not_directory()
end
puts Dir.pwd
image =3D DICOM:Object.new(Dir.glob('*')[0], verbose=3Dfalse, =20
library=3Dlib)
come_back_to_nycom()
if image.get_raw("0008,1090") =3D=3D "HDI 5000"
File.rename(filename, "HDI5000" + filename)

You only want the first file in every directory and every sub-=20
directory? is that it?

With this setup:
/dir1/file1
/dir1/dir11/file1
/dir1/dir11/file2
/dir1/dir12/file1
/dir1/dir12/file2

you only want /dir1/file1, /dir1/dir11/file1 and dir1/dir12/file1, is =20=

that correct?

I guess you could do something like this:

def getFilesInDirectory(dir)
dirs =3D []
files =3D []
Dir[File.join(dir, "*")].each do |f|
if File.directory?(f) then
dirs << f
elsif files.empty?
files =3D [f]
end
end
dirs.each do |dir|
files +=3D getFilesInDirectory(dir)
end
files
end

That does exactly what I need! What a cool solution.. Thank you!
