All right, I've got it! This script will move all files of
subdirectories into cwd.
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import os
currentDir = os.getcwd()
filesList = os.walk(currentDir)
for rootDirs, folders, files in filesList:
for f in files:
toMove = os.path.join(rootDirs, f)
newFilename = os.path.join(currentDir,f)
os.rename(toMove, newFilename)
Now, features to add:
1) Smart rename: don't clobber existing files
2) Remove empty directories
3) Check that it works with spaces in filenames and directories
4) Check that it works with non-ascii UTF-8 characters in filenames
and directories
5) Confirmation button to prevent accidental runs in $HOME for instance.
Thank you to everyone who helped!
