Listing contents of a directory & cleaning up the name


Recommended Posts

I was looking to clean up the directory listing so that i could easily copy and paste the text for a nullsoft installer, gets really annoying to do it manually with 50 files, or even go a few steps further and add File "filename" any ideas?

Directory of C:\Program Files\AutoIt3

Hi,

could you give an example how it should look like when it is done?

before : ...

That would make it much easier to help. :whistle:

After

AU3Info.exe

AutoIt v3 Website.url

AutoIt.chm

AutoIt3.exe

AutoIt3Help.exe

psapi.dll

Uninstall.exe

That would be great, but if you could even go further and do somthing like this..

SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\"

File "AU3Info.exe"

File "AutoIt v3 Website.url"

File "AutoIt.chm"

File "AutoIt3.exe"

File "AutoIt3Help.exe"

File "psapi.dll"

File "Uninstall.exe"

SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\AutoItX"

File "AutoItX3.dll"

File "AutoItX.chm"

Just an example of the autoit directory, if it could possibly go into the directories and then populate the list under the correct folder would even be better =)

Hi,

you can start with:

#Include <File.au3>
#Include <Array.au3>
$FileList=_FileListToArray(@DesktopDir, "*.*" , 1)
If (Not IsArray($FileList)) and (@Error=1) Then
    MsgBox (0,"","No Files\Folders Found.")
    Exit
EndIf
_ArrayDisplay($FileList,"$FileList")

So long,

Something like:

#Include <File.au3>
$Returned = _FileArrange(@DesktopDir)
MsgBox(64, 'Info:', $Returned)
ClipPut($Returned)

Func _FileArrange($hLocation, $sFilter = '*.*', $iFlag = 0)
    Local $aList = _FileListToArray($hLocation, $sFilter, $iFlag), $aSplit, $sHold
    If Not IsArray($aList) And @error = 1 Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    For $iCount = 1 To $aList[0]
        If FileGetAttrib($hLocation & '\' & $aList[$iCount]) = 'd' Then
            $sHold &= 'SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\' & $aList[$iCount] & '"' & @CRLF
        Else
            $sHold &= 'File "' & $aList[$iCount] & '"' & @CRLF
        EndIf
    Next
    Return StringTrimRight($sHold, 2)
EndFunc
?

Edit:

Changed the function to make more sense.

that's exactly what i'm looking for, thanks

You're welcome... I actually used this after I made it on a couple of my own install files... thanks for the idea.

instead of a msg box i made it a edit so you could copy and paste a little easier, i'm not sure why it takes so long to close though.

#Include <File.au3>
#include <GUIConstants.au3>
GuiCreate("Rawr", 389, 316,-1, -1 )
$edit = GUICtrlCreateEdit (""& @CRLF, 0, 0, 390, 320,$ES_AUTOVSCROLL+$WS_VSCROLL)
$Returned = _FileArrange("C:\somedir")
ClipPut($Returned)
GuiCtrlSetData($edit, $Returned)

GuiSetState()
While 1
Sleep(100)
    $msg = GuiGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
EndSelect
Wend

Func _FileArrange($hLocation, $sFilter = '*.*', $iFlag = 0)
    Local $aList = _FileListToArray($hLocation, $sFilter, $iFlag), $aSplit, $sHold
    If Not IsArray($aList) And @error = 1 Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    For $iCount = 1 To $aList[0]
        If FileGetAttrib($hLocation & '\' & $aList[$iCount]) = 'd' Then
            $sHold &= 'SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\' & $aList[$iCount] & '"' & @CRLF
        Else
            $sHold &= 'File "' & $aList[$iCount] & '"' & @CRLF
        EndIf
    Next
    Return StringTrimRight($sHold, 2)
EndFunc

The message box was only to show you the output it was going to return. ClipPut() would have been what I'd have done. But the GUI is a nice touch.

i just noticed one thing though, when dealing with the directories, they need to be added at the bottom, or else the files will be installed in the wrong place

This code puts the directories at the bottom of the list. The list is an array in my version. (Edited to correct what goes into the clip buffer):
#Include <File.au3>
#include <array.au3>
Global $sHold[2]
$Returned = _FileArrange(@DesktopDir)
_ArrayDisplay($sHold,"$sHold")
_ArrayToClip($sHold,1)

Func _FileArrange($hLocation, $sFilter = '*.*', $iFlag = 0)
    Local $aList = _FileListToArray($hLocation, $sFilter, $iFlag), $aSplit
    If Not IsArray($aList) And @error = 1 Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    For $iCount = 1 To $aList[0]
            ReDim $sHold[$iCount + 1]
        If FileGetAttrib($hLocation & '\' & $aList[$iCount]) = 'd' Then
            $sHold[$iCount] = 'SetOutPath $INSTDIR\' & $aList[$iCount] & @CRLF
        Else
            $sHold[$iCount] = "File " & $aList[$iCount] & @CRLF
        EndIf
    Next
    $sHold[0] = $iCount
    _ArraySort($sHold)
    Return $sHold
EndFunc

There's a million different ways to do it... No need to add all those functions though:

#Include <File.au3>
$Returned = _FileArrange(@DesktopDir)
MsgBox(64, 'Info:', $Returned)
ClipPut($Returned)

Func _FileArrange($hLocation, $sFilter = '*.*', $iFlag = 0)
    Local $aList = _FileListToArray($hLocation, $sFilter, $iFlag)
    Local $iSwitch, $sHold, $iCount
    If Not IsArray($aList) And @error = 1 Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
    For $iCount = 1 To $aList[0]
        If $iSwitch And FileGetAttrib($hLocation & '\' & $aList[$iCount]) = 'd' Then
            $sHold &= 'SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\' & $aList[$iCount] & '"' & @CRLF
        ElseIf Not $iSwitch Then
            $sHold &= 'File "' & $aList[$iCount] & '"' & @CRLF
        EndIf
        If Not $iSwitch And $iCount = $aList[0] Then
            $iSwitch = Not $iSwitch
            $iCount = 0
        EndIf
    Next
    Return StringTrimRight($sHold, 2)
EndFunc

Edit:

On why it's taking so long to close, change your Sleep(100) to Sleep(10)

do you think it's possible to populate a file list for the directories below with the files? the sub directories

Like a recursive search?

for example, the main directory's files, and the other directories with their files under the correct folder

File "text.txt"

SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\New"

File "New\text.txt"

SetOutPath "$INSTDIR\Old"

File "Old\text.txt"

You don't ask for alot do you lol.

i always seem to have problems with this

If Not IsArray($aList) And @error = 1 Then.....

try this

$Returned = _FileArrange(@HomeDrive & "\blah")

you will get an error/crash... not a returned error #

then change to this

If Not IsArray($aList) OR @error = 1 Then.....

and it works fine
