I want to rename all my file name to a path file name.
Example
The path to abc.txt =
c:\folder1\folder2\abc.txt
Since I'm using Windows, you can't rename file with "\" so I want to change it to "."
Output would be ".folder1.folder2.abc.txt" It wouldn't matter to me if drive name is there or not.
use File::Find; use File::Basename; use File::Spec; use strict; find ({ 'wanted' => \&renamefile }, 'c:\\folder1\\folder2'); sub renamefile { my $file = $_; return unless (-f $file); my $dirname = dirname($file); my $file_name = basename($file); my $new_file_name = $file_name; $new_file_name =~ s/\\\\/./g; rename($file,File::Spec->catfile($dirname,$new_file_name))or die; }
It is not renaming the file to the path file name
