Powershell script for moving sample mkvs into folder

Post by newk »

Hi,
I am new at scripting but have started working on a script in Windows 10 for moving files in releasefolders named *sample*.mkv into a Sample folder. Because this functionality is not built into sabnzbd I believe?

I have one version of the script that works when launching it in the local releasefolder so to speak outside of sabnzbd.
E.G: Place saample.ps1 in c:\test\Very.l33t.2021.CAM.VCD-NOGRP and run it and it creates the Sample folder if not found and moves *sample*.mkv into it.

That looks like this:

Code: Select all

$local = Get-Location
$File = Get-ChildItem -Path $local\*sample*.mkv
$Folder = "$local\Sample"
$Folder2 = "$local\SAMPLE"

if( ( ( Test-Path $Folder ) -or ( Test-Path $Folder2 ) ) )
{
    "Sample already found"; break
}

    else
{
    New-Item -Path $Folder -ItemType "directory"
    Move-Item -Path $File -Destination $Folder
}
I then tried modifying it a bit and tying it together with sabnzbd using a wrapper batchfile (.bat) that looks like this:

Code: Select all

C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -File "C:\Script\saample.ps1" -SAB_FINAL_NAME "%3"
The above saample.ps1 used in the .bat:

Code: Select all

$File = Get-ChildItem -Path "$SAB_FINAL_NAME\*sample*.mkv"
$Folder = "$SAB_FINAL_NAME\Sample"
$Folder2 = "$SAB_FINAL_NAME\SAMPLE"

if( ( ( Test-Path $Folder ) -or ( Test-Path $Folder2 ) ) )
{
    "Sample already found"; break
}

    else
{
    New-Item -Path $Folder -ItemType "directory"
    Move-Item -Path $File -Destination $Folder
}
However, when running this it just created C:\Sample and exits.
And if running it again I get "Sample already found", so that part works...

Can somebody point me in the right direction? I am not sure at all at how to use SAB_FINAL_NAME & %3 properly here.
I just found python examples here: https://sabnzbd.org/wiki/scripts/post-p ... s#env_vars
Batch to powershell maybe adds an extra layer of complexity?

Worst case scenario; if noone has any input maybe you even have a working script I can use?
Thanks

If your goal is to delete samples, checkout http://127.0.0.1:8080/sabnzbd/config/sw ... re_samples

Ignore Samples
Filter out sample files (e.g. video samples/proofs). Delete after download.

Thanks, but my goal is to keep the samples. I like to keep the releases original and even re-create the directory structure and files (nfo, sfv, sample) with ReScene and ReSample if they are missing. Old habit from the olden days..
More info here -> http://rescene.wikidot.com
So the goal here is to keep the sample.mkv but instead of if being located in the same directory as the .rars, nfo + sfv (which it is when the download has finished) I would like it to be moved to its own Sample-folder.

Add some debug output to the scripts. Print the directory the scripts are using as base and each command they are executing with the variables expanded. I don't know PS so I can't help you with the exact commands.

It's not a Powershell script but it does what you're looking for. I'm a new user so I can't post link unedited https:// forums.sabnzbd. org/viewtopic.php?t=7966 It'll throw Sample, Subs and Proof into their own folders. I ended up hacking this script up to ignore downloads that contain mp3s since it would take any mp3s that contain the words sameple, subs or proof and put them in their own folder.

Code: Select all

@ECHO OFF

REM ----------- mrlss-SUD-v1b9.bat
REM ----------- movie release sorter - Sort/Unrar/Delete - version 1 build 9
