Python Qt6 : tool for renaming files with creation date .

Since this hacking and the crashes... I've always taken screenshots... Today I created a small script that takes files from a folder and renames them with the creation date in this format...yyyyMMdd_HHmmss .

... obviously artificial intelligence helped me.

This is the source code :

import sys
import os
import shutil
from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QApplication, QWidget, QPushButton, QVBoxLayout, QFileDialog, QMessageBox
from PyQt6.QtCore import QDateTime

class FileRenamer(QWidget):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        self.setWindowTitle("Redenumire fișiere cu dată și index")
        self.setGeometry(100, 100, 400, 150)

        layout = QVBoxLayout()

        self.button = QPushButton("Selectează folderul și redenumește fișierele")
        self.button.clicked.connect(self.rename_files)
        layout.addWidget(self.button)

        self.setLayout(layout)

    def rename_files(self):
        folder = QFileDialog.getExistingDirectory(self, "Selectează folderul")
        if not folder:
            return

        files = [f for f in os.listdir(folder) if os.path.isfile(os.path.join(folder, f))]
        files.sort()  # Sortează pentru consistență

        for index, filename in enumerate(files, start=1):
            old_path = os.path.join(folder, filename)
            try:
                creation_time = os.path.getctime(old_path)
                dt = QDateTime.fromSecsSinceEpoch(int(creation_time))
                date_str = dt.toString("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss")
                ext = os.path.splitext(filename)[1]
                new_name = f"{date_str}_{index:03d}{ext}"
                new_path = os.path.join(folder, new_name)

                # Evită suprascrierea fișierelor existente
                if not os.path.exists(new_path):
                    shutil.move(old_path, new_path)
            except Exception as e:
                QMessageBox.critical(self, "Eroare", f"Eroare la fișierul {filename}:\n{str(e)}")
                continue

        QMessageBox.information(self, "Succes", "Fișierele au fost redenumite cu succes!")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app = QApplication(sys.argv)
    window = FileRenamer()
    window.show()
    sys.exit(app.exec())
