batch script to rename the data inside a text file - windows

Question

I have written a windows batch code to rename the folders and files recursively from V34 to 35 and so on..and but I need to change same V34 to 35 inside a text file,which is residing inside the files
Folder---file--text file(Inside the text file need to change the V34 content to V35)
Please find the below code which I have written and let me know for the changes
#echo off
setlocal disableDelayedExpansion
set "old=V34"
set "new=V35"
for /f "delims=" %%F in ('dir /b /s *. *.xslt ^| sort /r') do (
set "source=%%F"
set "oldname=%%~nxF"
setlocal enableDelayedExpansion
set "newname=!oldname:%old%=%new%!"
if /i "!newname!" neq "!oldname!" (
echo ren "!source!" "!newname!"
ren "!source!" "!newname!"
) )
for /f "delims=" %%i in (.*) do (
set "source=%%i"
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
set "newname=!oldname:%old%=%new%!"
echo ren "!source!" "!newname!"
ren "!source!" "!newname!"
endlocal
)
endlocal

Answer 1

simple solution use powershell for get all folder and file names then rename to new name see this example
get-childitem -filter *v34.txt | foreach { (Get-Content drive:\$_ ) | ForEach-Object { $_ -replace "v34", "v35" } | Set-Content v35.txt
for cmd you can get-content and then replace v34 to v35
type v34.txt|repl "v34" "v35" >v35.txt
for change content of txt file you can use fnrtooland down is example for you but still i suggest to you use powershell
for your code
.\fnr.exe --cl --dir "c:\" --filemask "*.txt" --find "v34" --replace "v35" --includeSubDirectories
your code :
#echo off
setlocal disableDelayedExpansion
set "old=V34"
set "new=V35"
for /f "delims=" %%F in ('dir /b /s *. *.xslt ^| sort /r') do (
set "source=%%F"
set "oldname=%%~nxF"
setlocal enableDelayedExpansion
set "newname=!oldname:%old%=%new%!"
if /i "!newname!" neq "!oldname!" (
echo ren "!source!" "!newname!"
ren "!source!" "!newname!"
) )
for /f "delims=" %%i in (.*) do (
set "source=%%i"
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
set "newname=!oldname:%old%=%new%!"
echo ren "!source!" "!newname!"
ren "!source!" "!newname!"
endlocal
)
endlocal
complete code :
#echo off
setlocal disableDelayedExpansion
set "old=V34"
set "new=V35"
for /f "delims=" %%F in ('dir /b /s *. *.xslt ^| sort /r') do (
set "source=%%F"
set "oldname=%%~nxF"
setlocal enableDelayedExpansion
set "newname=!oldname:%old%=%new%!"
if /i "!newname!" neq "!oldname!" (
echo ren "!source!" "!newname!"
ren "!source!" "!newname!"
) )
c:\path\fnr.exe --cl --dir "c:\" --filemask "*.txt" --find "v34" --replace "v35" --includeSubDirectories
endlocal

::************ Documentation ***********
::REPL.BAT version 6.2
:::
:::REPL Search Replace [Options [SourceVar]]
:::REPL /?[REGEX|REPLACE]
:::REPL /V
:::
::: Performs a global regular expression search and replace operation on
::: each line of input from stdin and prints the result to stdout.
:::
::: Each parameter may be optionally enclosed by double quotes. The double
::: quotes are not considered part of the argument. The quotes are required
::: if the parameter contains a batch token delimiter like space, tab, comma,
::: semicolon. The quotes should also be used if the argument contains a
::: batch special character like &, |, etc. so that the special character
::: does not need to be escaped with ^.
:::
::: If called with a single argument of /?, then prints help documentation
::: to stdout. If a single argument of /?REGEX, then opens up Microsoft's
::: JScript regular expression documentation within your browser. If a single
::: argument of /?REPLACE, then opens up Microsoft's JScript REPLACE
::: documentation within your browser.
:::
::: If called with a single argument of /V, case insensitive, then prints
::: the version of REPL.BAT.
:::
::: Search - By default, this is a case sensitive JScript (ECMA) regular
::: expression expressed as a string.
:::
::: JScript regex syntax documentation is available at
::: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ae5bf541(v=vs.80).aspx
:::
::: Replace - By default, this is the string to be used as a replacement for
::: each found search expression. Full support is provided for
::: substituion patterns available to the JScript replace method.
:::
::: For example, $& represents the portion of the source that matched
::: the entire search pattern, $1 represents the first captured
::: submatch, $2 the second captured submatch, etc. A $ literal
::: can be escaped as $$.
:::
::: An empty replacement string must be represented as "".
:::
::: Replace substitution pattern syntax is fully documented at
::: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/efy6s3e6(v=vs.80).aspx
:::
::: Options - An optional string of characters used to alter the behavior
::: of REPL. The option characters are case insensitive, and may
::: appear in any order.
:::
::: A - Only print altered lines. Unaltered lines are discarded.
::: If the S options is present, then prints the result only if
::: there was a change anywhere in the string. The A option is
::: incompatible with the M option unless the S option is present.
:::
::: B - The Search must match the beginning of a line.
::: Mostly used with literal searches.
:::
::: E - The Search must match the end of a line.
::: Mostly used with literal searches.
:::
::: I - Makes the search case-insensitive.
:::
::: J - The Replace argument represents a JScript expression.
::: The expression may access an array like arguments object
::: named $. However, $ is not a true array object.
:::
::: The $.length property contains the total number of arguments
::: available. The $.length value is equal to n+3, where n is the
::: number of capturing left parentheses within the Search string.
:::
::: $[0] is the substring that matched the Search,
::: $[1] through $[n] are the captured submatch strings,
::: $[n+1] is the offset where the match occurred, and
::: $[n+2] is the original source string.
:::
::: Arguments $[0] through $[10] may be abbreviated as
::: $1 through $10. Argument $[11] and above must use the square
::: bracket notation.
:::
::: L - The Search is treated as a string literal instead of a
::: regular expression. Also, all $ found in the Replace string
::: are treated as $ literals.
:::
::: M - Multi-line mode. The entire contents of stdin is read and
::: processed in one pass instead of line by line, thus enabling
::: search for \n. This also enables preservation of the original
::: line terminators. If the M option is not present, then every
::: printed line is terminated with carriage return and line feed.
::: The M option is incompatible with the A option unless the S
::: option is also present.
:::
::: Note: If working with binary data containing NULL bytes,
::: then the M option must be used.
:::
::: S - The source is read from an environment variable instead of
::: from stdin. The name of the source environment variable is
::: specified in the next argument after the option string. Without
::: the M option, ^ anchors the beginning of the string, and $ the
::: end of the string. With the M option, ^ anchors the beginning
::: of a line, and $ the end of a line.
:::
::: V - Search and Replace represent the name of environment
::: variables that contain the respective values. An undefined
::: variable is treated as an empty string.
:::
::: X - Enables extended substitution pattern syntax with support
::: for the following escape sequences within the Replace string:
:::
::: \\ - Backslash
::: \b - Backspace
::: \f - Formfeed
::: \n - Newline
::: \q - Quote
::: \r - Carriage Return
::: \t - Horizontal Tab
::: \v - Vertical Tab
::: \xnn - Extended ASCII byte code expressed as 2 hex digits
::: \unnnn - Unicode character expressed as 4 hex digits
:::
::: Also enables the \q escape sequence for the Search string.
::: The other escape sequences are already standard for a regular
::: expression Search string.
:::
::: Also modifies the behavior of \xnn in the Search string to work
::: properly with extended ASCII byte codes.
:::
::: Extended escape sequences are supported even when the L option
::: is used. Both Search and Replace support all of the extended
::: escape sequences if both the X and L opions are combined.
:::
::: Return Codes: 0 = At least one change was made
::: or the /? or /V option was used
:::
::: 1 = No change was made
:::
::: 2 = Invalid call syntax or incompatible options
:::
::: 3 = JScript runtime error, typically due to invalid regex
:::
::: REPL.BAT was written by Dave Benham, with assistance from DosTips user Aacini
::: to get \xnn to work properly with extended ASCII byte codes. Also assistance
::: from DosTips user penpen diagnosing issues reading NULL bytes, along with a
::: workaround. REPL.BAT was originally posted at:
::: http://www.dostips.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3855
