Default rename photo by random size

Is there a program that can rename a directory of photos randomly?

Perhaps by size?
Or by last access?
Or by number of colors.
Whatever.

Almost none have exif so rename by exif would be nice but won't work.

Most renames like iv seem to rename based only on file name.

Irfanview has many bulk rename options. Check it out.

Do you mean rename the directory, or the files within it?

Perhaps by size?
Or by last access?
Or by number of colors.
Whatever.

IV can rename by file size ($S), number of megapixels ($m) ...
presumably those don't use exif data.

Most renames like iv seem to rename based only on file name.

"Randomly" might make it tricky, but for all of my bulk renaming chores
I turn to Bulk Rename Utility.
https://www.bulkrenameutility.co.uk/Main_Intro.php

If I wanted to rename based on size, I'd simply click the size column
header, then apply an incrementing serial number to each file as a
prefix. For example, once the files have been sorted by size or date
accessed, I'd specify a prefix of 101 or 1001, depending on the number
of files, increment 1, separator " - ", and let'er rip. Later, if you
want to name them by a different criteria, you can easily remove the
serial number, do the sort another way, and reapply a serial number. BRU
is insanely configurable.

I want to rename the files not the directory.

If IV renamed randomly I am fine but I long tried IV doing this.

What is wrong with my test of IV rename by file size?

I open one jpeg file in the directory to IV.
I press the "b" key to begin batch operation.
I press "options" in the "batch rename settings" part.
There are no related options to rename based on file size.
(The batch rename order will be based on the original filename order.)

Is there some other bulk rename feature somewhere else in IV?
It doe not need to rename with pure random but it should not be based on
alphabetical order.

In the window that opens when you click Options, headed "Batch rename
settings", click Help. Scroll down. You will see $S - file size, and $m
- number of megapixels. So close the help, and change whatever's in the
"Name pattern" box to $S. Now select your files, and start renaming ...

This is IV 4.51, but I think it's been the same for a while.

You seem to want to make the names non-informative.
Isn't that a good method?

If you were to rename based on size or file time
you'd need to deal with possible repetitions. You'd
also need to access the file to do it.

This is IV 4.51, but I think it's been the same for a while.


I only later understood what you are trying to tell me.
Let me write what happens with IV 4.5.1 - 32 bit as I try slowly.

I open up a directory of a few thousand images of various types.
I only want to rename the base file name and keep original extensions.
I do not want the current order of the file names which is alphabetical.
I want the order of file names to be random (or at least mostly random).

I click twice on a file to open it up in iv which is my default pic viewer.
I press the "b" keyboard key to begin batch mode.
The "Batch conversion" window opens up.
I press the "Add all" button to add all the thousands of image files.

Under the heading of "Batch rename settings" is a "Name pattern".
To the right of that name pattern is an "Options" button.
I click that Options button which has a "Name pattern" again.
To the right of the "$N" and "#" example is a "Help" button.
I press that "Help" button which brings up "Text/Pattern Options" help.
Some of those text pattern options are below.
$S - file size
$m - number of megapixels
$B - image bits per pixel
$p - image DPI
$R - image aspect ratio (width / height)
$I - all IPTC data

Closing that Help I try this pattern
Name pattern: $S$m$B$p$R$I###
And then I press the "Start Batch" button.

That gives me random file names of
497.88 KB1.19 MP2496(0.87)001.jpg
473.31 KB1.12 MP2496(1.65)002.jpg

558.63 KB0.98 MP2496(1.07)014.jpg
569.74 KB1.13 MP2496(0.92)015.jpg

Now that the file name order is random, I can run another batch rename
Name pattern: image###

Now the images are in a pseudo random order.
It works ok.
Thank you for helping me find the other randomizing values!

I do not actually care what the image name is.
It just needs to be randomly ordered.

Let's take a made up example of the following pictures
a white cow
another white cow
yet another cow
horse
chicken
another chicken
dog
a big dog
cat
a small cat
a brown cow

I want the order of those to be random kind of like this
horse
another white cow
cat
another chicken
dog
a brown cow
chicken
a white cow
a big dog
yet another cow
a small cat

The order doesn't have to be "really" random.
Just not in the original order which had groupings of similar pictures.
I want to break up the groupings of similar pictures.

The final result can be any name as long as the order is "random".

image001 which was horse
image002 which was another white cow
image003 which was cat
image004 which was another chicken
image005 which was dog
image006 which was a brown cow
image007 which was chicken
image008 which was a white cow
image009 which was a big dog
image010 which was yet another cow

If you were to rename based on size or file time
you'd need to deal with possible repetitions. You'd
also need to access the file to do it.


I found this batch script which I think handles repetitions.

It sounds like you're trying to override the playback
order in a screensaver, picture frame, or smart TV. By
appending a prefix to the file name, the alphabetical
order can be overridden.

001_horse
002_another_white_cow
003_cat
004_another_chicken
005_dog
006_a_brown_cow
007_chicken
008_a_white_cow
009_a_big_dog
010_yet_another cow
011_a_small_cat

On a later incantation, you might seek

001_another_white_cow
002_dog

and that's the order they will play in.

Here is a deck shuffling code. When solving a problem,
first I look for some code I can borrow.

https://www.rosettacode.org/wiki/Knuth_shuffle#AWK

You can make a script generator in awk (gawk).

dir input.txt

gawk -f shuffle2.awk input.txt output.txt

notepad output.txt # visual check all is good

ren output.txt output.bat

output.bat # do the rename in Command Prompt
# The rename can be done from AWK
# but it's a bit clumsy.

Now, all you have to do, is write the program.

I'm using the KISS principle here, to keep scripting
time to 30 minutes or less. Borrowing a little code,
saves time.

******* shuffle2.awk MSDOS batch generator *******
# Program to shuffle filenames.
# Can be applied to the directory, again and again.
#
# Input:
#
# hello.jpg # A brand new file added to the directory
# 0001__goodbye.jpg # An old file needing renaming without hdr addn
#
# Output:
#
# ren 0001__goodbye.jpg 0001__goodbye.jpg # the order is random
# ren hello.jpg 0002__hello.jpg # a second run will flip the order
#
# For interactive input, type ctrlz to indicate end of stdin
#
# gawk -f shuffle2.awk
# gawk -f shuffle2.awk input.txt my_msdos_bat.bat

BEGIN {
srand(systime()) # seed using epoch time in seconds
maxfiles = 10000 # a power of ten, for number plan
# stick to a scheme once started!!!
# 0000__ 0001__ ... 9999__
headlen = 6
for (k=1; k10000; k++) { prechk[ sprintf("%04d__", k) ] = k } # catch reused headers
k=1 # use as input counter
}

# Shuffle an _array_ with indexes from 1 to _len_.
# Reuse: https://www.rosettacode.org/wiki/Knuth_shuffle#AWK
#
function shuffle(array, len, i, j, t) {
for (i = len; i 1; i--) {
# j = random integer from 1 to i
j = int(i * rand()) + 1

# swap array[i], array[j]
t = array[i]
array[i] = array[j]
array[j] = t
}
}

{ array[ k++ ] = $0 } # load list of filenames from stdin

END {
k-- # correct overshoot by one

shuffle( array, k ) #
for (m = 1; m = k; m++) {
head = substr( array[m], 1, headlen )
totlen = length( array[ m ] )
tail = substr( array[m], 7, totlen-6 )

if (head in prechk) { # substitute out the lead chars
printf( "ren %s %04d__%s\n" , array[ m ], m, tail )
} else { # add new scheme as prefix to name
printf( "ren %s %04d__%s\n" , array[ m ], m, array[m] )
}
}
}

******* shuffle2.awk MSDOS batch generator *******

Gawk.exe is available here, in the binaries section.
This program should not need any library DLLs and is
(thankfully) self-contained.

http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gawk.htm

Gawk version 4 is available in Windows 10, in the Linux
Bash environment. This Gawk 3 version from gnuwin32
however, is actually "Windows friendly" on line
endings, which is why I'm still using it.

I specifically did not make this a full featured
"add" "re-randomize" "remove" program.

I could do that, but elected not to.

This is what you call a "quick and dirty".

The point of presenting it at all, is to as
much show an approach, as to give you finished
software. Note that:

1) The "program" I provided, does not rename files
itself. It only generates an MSDOS batch file
containing rename commands. This is intended to
take the "danger" out of the program. It also saves
me adding a ton of "if-then-else" that might
obscure the simple nature of the program.
You can actually do the rename step in gawk too,
by calling Windows shell routines to do it. I elected not
to attempt it. If I spent 24 hours working on the
code, I could add everything.

2) The "program" reuses code. I was too lazy to learn
how to shuffle a deck, so I borrowed some code to do it.

3) The "program" has a minimum of command line options
(effectively zero options). They can be added,
but that is "feature creep". And the program isn't
really all that functional to begin with, because
the real work is done when you execute the output
batch file.

Anything that renames or deletes files, I am *really*
*really* careful. It takes a lot of safety testing
to make sure I didn't screw up. And I *have* lost files
(only one or two) via programming accidents in the past.
That's where my careful methodical approach for full
featured programs come from. From losing files...

The intended usage scenario is this:

1) Copy selected files for the screensaver into a new
folder. I.e. *Don't* use your only copy for this purpose.

2) cd /d /path/to/folder
dir input.txt
run the gawk program to generate a batch
notepad output.txt
remove lines that don't belong, then save
ren output.txt output.bat
./output.bat # folder re-randomized

3) If needing to re-randomize the folder, repeat
step two. If a file begins with 0001_goodbye.jpg,
the gawk program can place 0005_goodbye.jpg as
its new name, making it the fifth image to play
on the screensaver. I tried to make the gawk program
so it could be run more than once, without adding
command line parameters to pass to it.

*******

There is no collision detection code in the program,
as my reasoning is, it isn't necessary.

Don't for example, *manually* place the following in the
folder. This destroys my going-in assumptions about the
need for collision detection code. My little program
can't do this, without human interference to spoil my
assumptions about uniqueness.

0001__goodbye.jpg
0005__goodbye.jpg

The random change, could attempt to

ren 0001__goodbye.jpg 0005__goodbye.jpg

while "0005__goodbye.jpg" already exists. As long as
you toss names with no conflicts in there in the first place

cat.jpg
dog.jpg
squirrel.jpg

everything should work.

If adding files, you *still* want the root filename to
be unique. Here, I added an elephant to a previously-randomized
run. You can add files to the folder, just as long as
the filename was as unique as it would have been sitting
in the original folder.

If you could not copy the elephant to the original folder
without causing some other elephant to be deleted, then
placing that elephant in this working folder will also
cause a problem. In the following example, the elephant
is unique, so there is no problemo.

0001__dog.jpg
0002__cat.jpg
0003__squirrel.jpg
elephant.jpg

gives...

0001__cat.jpg
0002__elephant.jpg
0003__dog.jpg
0004__squirrel.jpg

Adding collision detection is easy too, but it's
feature creep and part of a more thorough effort.
Adding if-then-else to cure "stupid stuff" is essential
to well-written programs. This isn't a well written
program. It's a Q&D demo.

If I needed "sufficient" control over the program, I'd
write it in C code. I have stat() and other resources there.

In terms of input format, each line of text in the input.txt
is assumed to be a file name. Let's run a thought experiment...

in de gotta da vida.jpg

will be renamed to

ren in de gotta da vida.jpg 0001__in de gotta da vida.jpg

Yup, a disaster. It needs double quotes added to the printf.

ren "in de gotta da vida.jpg" "0001__in de gotta da vida.jpg"

So here is a five line "chunk" to snip out and replace,
to add the quotes. Modify the previously-posted file with this.

if (head in prechk) { # substitute out the lead chars
printf( "ren \"%s\" \"%04d__%s\"\n" , array[ m ], m, tail )
} else { # add new scheme as prefix to name
printf( "ren \"%s\" \"%04d__%s\"\n" , array[ m ], m, array[m] )
}

And here is the fix running my test case.
Now the rename has quotes to protect file names.
I'm using interactive mode to enter a two line test case here.

I only write a couple of these pieces of code per year,
so it's not like I'm a code-writing machine or anything.
Some will "enjoy a new hobby" more than others :-)

In terms of input format, each line of text in the input.txt

LOL, I think you just copied Star Trek episode S02E23, "The Omega
Glory". :-)

CLOUD: When you would not say the holy words, of the Ee'd Plebnista, I
doubted you.
KIRK: I did not recognise those words, you said them so badly, Without
meaning.
ELDER: No! No! Only the eyes of a chief may see the Ee'd Plebnista.
KIRK: This was not written for chiefs. (general consternation) Hear me!
Hear this! Among my people, we carry many such words as this from
many lands, many worlds. Many are equally good and are as well
respected, but wherever we have gone, no words have said this
thing of importance in quite this way. Look at these three words
written larger than the rest, with a special pride never written
before or since. Tall words proudly saying We the People. That
which you call Ee'd Plebnista was not written for the chiefs or
the kings or the warriors or the rich and powerful, but for all
the people! Down the centuries, you have slurred the meaning of
the words, 'We, the people of the United States, in order to form
a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic
tranquillity, provide for the common defence, promote the general
welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our
posterity, do ordain and establish this constitution.' These
words and the words that follow were not written only for the
Yangs, but for the Kohms as well!



"in de gotta da vida" reminded me of "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" which of
course is a drunken slurring of "In The Garden of Eden".

Good stuff. Thanks for the flashback.

I tried that script. It works fine. So it looks to me
like your problem is solved.
