# RenameFile: RenameFile is a [Stash](https://github.com/stashapp/stash) plugin which performs the following two main task. - **Rename Scene File Name** (On-The-Fly) - **Append tag names** to file name It allows users to rename the video (scene) file name by editing the [Title] field located in the scene [Edit] tab. In addition, the plugin also appends tags to the file name if the tag does not already exist in the name. Note: This script is **largely** based on the [Renamer](https://github.com/Serechops/Serechops-Stash/tree/main/plugins/Renamer) script. ### Using RenameFile - Open a scene (via Stash), and click on the [**Edit**] tab. Populate the [**Title**] field with the desired file name. - Note: Do **NOT** include the file folder name and do **NOT** include file extension. - After populating the Title field, click the save button. - After a few seconds, the file will get renamed and the screen will get updated with the new file name. - By default tag names are appended to the file name only if the tags do not exist in the original name. - The [Tag Append] feature can be disabled by adding "tags" to the **exclude_keys** field in **renamefile_settings.py** file. - Since this plugin is largely based on the [Renamer](https://github.com/Serechops/Serechops-Stash/tree/main/plugins/Renamer) plugin, it inherited some of its features, like being able to include any of the following fields when auto-renaming is executed: - studio, performers, date, height, video_codec, frame_rate - To add these fields removed the desired field(s) from **exclude_keys** in renamefile_settings.py. - To change the order, modify the **key_order** field. - There is a dry_run option in the renamefile_settings.py, and I highly recommend enabling this option before making changes to renamefile_settings.py. The renamefile.log can be reviewed to verify that the rename action will occur as expected. **Note:** On Windows 10/11, the file can not be renamed while it's playing. It will result in following error: ` Error: [WinError 32] The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process ` To avoid this error, refresh the URL before changing the Title field. ### Requirements `pip install stashapp-tools` `pip install pyYAML` ### Installation - Follow **Requirements** instructions. - In the stash plugin directory (C:\Users\MyUserName\.stash\plugins), create a folder named **RenameFile**. - Copy all the plugin files to this folder.(**C:\Users\MyUserName\.stash\plugins\RenameFile**). - Restart Stash. That's it!!! ### Options To change options, see **renamefile_settings.py** file. After making changes, go to http://localhost:9999/settings?tab=plugins, and click [Reload Plugins].
