AniDB O'Matic - Documentation: Local file renaming
File renaming patterns
AoM contains a comprehensive number of patterns to fully customize file names and paths. In order for the pattern to allow very complex rules it essentially allows light scripting. The path can be a complete path or a partial path, in case of a partial path the current file manager is used to place the file based on a known root or from the root folder of the file manager, see file managers below for more details. File extensions are automatically added to the end of the pattern.
Sample patters
English anime title with fallback
set('atitle', at('en')) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', at('x-jat'))) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', at('ja'))) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', A.Name))
Japanese transcription anime title with fallback
set('atitle', at('x-jat')) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', at('en'))) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', A.Name))
Japanese kanji anime title with fallback
set('atitle', at('ja')) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', at('x-jat'))) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', at('en'))) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', A.Name))
English episode title with fallback
set('etitle', et('en')) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('x-jat'))) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('ja'))) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', E.Name))
Japanese transcription episode title with fallback
set('etitle', et('x-jat')) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('en'))) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', E.Name))
Japanese kanji episode title with fallback
set('etitle', et('ja')) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('x-jat'))) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('en'))) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', E.Name))
File version and censor flag
set('censored', 'unknown') set('version', F.Version) set('state_map', F.State mod 4096) if(state_map>=2048, set('version', 9) + set('state_map', state_map - 2048)) if(state_map>=1024, if(version<9,set('version', 8)) + set('state_map', state_map - 1024)) if(state_map>=512, if(version<9,set('version', 7)) + set('state_map', state_map - 512)) if(state_map>=256, if(version<9,set('version', 6)) + set('state_map', state_map - 256)) if(state_map>=128, set('censored', 'yes') + set('state_map', state_map - 128)) if(state_map>=64, set('censored', 'no') + set('state_map', state_map - 64)) set('version', if(version>1, 'v'+F.Version, '')) set('censored',if(censored='yes','[Censored]',''))
Padded episode number
set('mepno', if(E.TypeId=1, max(A.TotalEpisodeCount, E.EpisodeTypeCount), E.EpisodeTypeCount)) set('epno', padl(E.EpisodeNo, max(1, length(mepno)), '0')) if(E.TypeId=2, set('epno', 'S'+epno)) if(E.TypeId=3, set('epno', 'C'+epno)) if(E.TypeId=4, set('epno', 'T'+epno)) if(E.TypeId=5, set('epno', 'P'+epno)) if(E.TypeId=6, set('epno', 'O'+epno))
First letter for organizing by letter
set('head', copy(atitle, 1, 1)) if(numeric(head), set('head', '0-9'))
Group name
set('groupname', if(G, if(length(G.Name)>0, G.Name, G.Shortname), 'no group')) set('groupname', if(length(groupname)>0, '['+groupname+']'))
Group short name
set('groupname', if(G, if(length(G.Shortname)>0, G.Shortname, G.Name), 'no group')) set('groupname', if(length(groupname)>0, '['+groupname+']'))
CRC32
set('crc', if(H, H.Crc32, F.Crc)) if(length(crc)>0, set('crc', '('+uc(crc)+')')
Current filename (removing the path)
set('path_filename', PATH) set('path_parts', 1) for('i', 1, length(path_filename), if(copy(path_filename, i, 1) = '\', set('path_parts', path_parts+1))) set('path_filename', split(path_filename, '\', path_parts))
Complex samples
Default pattern
ATTENTION! The default pattern has a bug. See below for instructions to fix it.
set('atitle', at('x-jat')) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', at('en'))) if(length(atitle)=0, set('atitle', A.Name)) set('atitle', replace(atitle, '\', ' ')) set('etitle', et('en')) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('x-jat'))) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', et('ja'))) if(length(etitle)=0, set('etitle', E.Name)) set('etitle', replace(etitle, '\', ' ')) set('version', if(F.Version>1, 'v'+F.Version, '')) set('mepno', max(A.TotalEpisodeCount, E.EpisodeTypeCount)) set('epno', padl(E.EpisodeNo, max(1, length(mepno)), '0') + version) if(E.TypeId=2, set('epno', 'S'+epno)) if(E.TypeId=3, set('epno', 'C'+epno)) if(E.TypeId=4, set('epno', 'T'+epno)) if(E.TypeId=5, set('epno', 'P'+epno)) if(E.TypeId=6, set('epno', 'O'+epno)) set('groupname', if(G, if(length(G.Shortname)>0, G.Shortname, G.Name), 'no group')) set('groupname', if(length(groupname)>0, '['+groupname+']')) set('groupname', replace(groupname, '\', ' ')) set('crc', if(H, H.Crc32, F.Crc)) if(length(crc)>0, set('crc', '('+uc(crc)+')')) set('filename', limit(limit(limit(atitle, 90) + ' - ' + epno + ' - ' + etitle, 200) + ' ' + groupname, 235) + crc + '.' + F.FileType) set('filename', replace(filename, '*', ' ')) set('filename', replace(filename, '/', ' ')) set('filename', replace(filename, '?', ' ')) set('filename', replace(filename, ':', ' ')) set('filename', replace(filename, '"', ' ')) set('filename', replace(filename, '<', ' ')) set('filename', replace(filename, '>', ' ')) set('filename', replace(filename, '|', ' ')) set('filename', replace(filename, '`', "'")) set('filename', replace(filename, ' ', ' ')) filename
ATTENTION! The default pattern has a bug. To fix it, find the following line:
set('mepno', max(A.TotalEpisodeCount, E.EpisodeTypeCount))
And replace it with:
set('mepno', if(E.TypeId=1, max(A.TotalEpisodeCount, E.EpisodeTypeCount), E.EpisodeTypeCount))
