Consider the following directory:

➜  ls
Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv
Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv
Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv
Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv
Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv
  • Rename files using regex option (-r is optional and can be omitted):
➜  nomino ".* S(\d+).E(\d+).*" "S{:2}E{:2}"
+-------------------------------+------------+
| Input                         | Output     |
+-------------------------------+------------+
| Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv | S01E01.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv | S01E02.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv | S01E03.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv | S01E04.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv | S01E05.mkv |
+-------------------------------+------------+
  • Named capture groups are also supported:
➜  nomino ".* S(?<season>\d+).E(?<episode>\d+).*" "S{season:2}E{episode:2}"
+-------------------------------+------------+
| Input                         | Output     |
+-------------------------------+------------+
| Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv | S01E01.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv | S01E02.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv | S01E03.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv | S01E04.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv | S01E05.mkv |
+-------------------------------+------------+

?<season> and ?<episode> are named capture groups. S{season:2}E{episode:2} is equivalent to S{:2}E{:2} or S{1:2}E{2:2}.

  • Rename files using sort option:
➜  nomino -s asc "{:3}"
+-------------------------------+---------+
| Input                         | Output  |
+-------------------------------+---------+
| Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv | 001.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv | 002.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv | 003.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv | 004.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv | 005.mkv |
+-------------------------------+---------+
➜  nomino -s desc "{:3}"
+-------------------------------+----------+
| Input                         | Output   |
+-------------------------------+----------+
| Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv | 001.mkv  |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv | 002.mkv  |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv | 003.mkv  |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv | 004.mkv  |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv | 005.mkv  |
+-------------------------------+----------+
  • Rename files using the following map.json file:
{
    "Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv": "0101.mkv",
    "Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv": "0102.mkv",
    "Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv": "0103.mkv",
    "Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv": "0104.mkv",
    "Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv": "0105.mkv"
}
➜  nomino -m map.json
+-------------------------------+----------+
| Input                         | Output   |
+-------------------------------+----------+
| Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv | 0101.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv | 0102.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv | 0103.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv | 0104.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv | 0105.mkv |
+-------------------------------+----------+

Undo renaming files

rename files by creating a map file using -g option, then use that map file to undo renaming (-E disables preservation of the output extension, so it should be added manually):

➜  nomino -E -g undo.json -r ".*.(mkv)" "a.{}"
+-------------------------------+-----------+
| Input                         | Output    |
+-------------------------------+-----------+
| Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv | ____a.mkv |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv | ___a.mkv  |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv | __a.mkv   |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv | _a.mkv    |
| Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv | a.mkv     |
+-------------------------------+-----------+

➜  nomino -m undo.json
+-----------+-------------------------------+
| Input     | Output                        |
+-----------+-------------------------------+
| ____a.mkv | Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv |
| _a.mkv    | Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv |
| __a.mkv   | Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv |
| ___a.mkv  | Nomino (2020) S1.E4.1080p.mkv |
| a.mkv     | Nomino (2020) S1.E5.1080p.mkv |
+-----------+-------------------------------+

Sub-directories

Consider the following tree:

➜  tree
.
├── s1
│   ├── Nomino (2020) S1.E1.1080p.mkv
│   ├── Nomino (2020) S1.E2.1080p.mkv
│   └── Nomino (2020) S1.E3.1080p.mkv
└── s2
    ├── Nomino (2020) S2.E1.1080p.mkv
    ├── Nomino (2020) S2.E2.1080p.mkv
    ├── Nomino (2020) S2.E3.1080p.mkv
    └── Nomino (2020) S2.E4.1080p.mkv
  • Read files from sub-directories, then create new sub-directories using -k flag, and rename files. Note that the sub-directory depth is inferred using the number of filename separators (i.e. / in Unix and \ in Windows) in regex pattern which could be overwritten using --depth argument. -E disables preservation of the output extension, so it should be added manually.
➜  nomino -E -k "s(\d+)/.*E(\d+).*" "Season {:2}/Episode {:2}.mkv"
