Regex on dev.endevour

Recursive list of files in Linux

I’ve spent a few hours over the weekend migrating a media library from an external USB drive to the NAS, and in the process reorganised it, and in many cases bulk changed file names. I’ve also added a heap of metadata.

I’d like to check that I haven’t missed any files, but a side by side listing of each data source won’t do the trick, so I’ll probably end up pulling the data into a spreadsheet, but I’d like to get as close as possible with Linux-fu first.

Regex to split a string with two different characters

I’m working on the behaviour tickets app, and wanted a visually functional version to share with stakeholders this week to get some feedback. As usual in this situation, I’m pressed for time so feeling the pressure to take some liberties with code quality that I’ll come back and fix one day.

In a salient lesson of why that’s usually a bad idea, I’ve ended up googling to try and understand regex instead of writing code.
