I'm updating foundry to a version 11 and it broke an ass ton of my assets cause they're all "verified version 10"
So all I have to do is change that number, they're just maps so no need to update anything else, but I have like 400+ files to convert all in individual folders.
Please tell me there's an easy way to do this. (I'm on Linux obviously)
I also agree sed and some regex is your best bet
I recommend formatting the regex with regex101.com, I'm down to help you if you post some examples
Additionally there is a cli tool, I think jq or something like that, for processing json on the command line
I have foundry too, let me see if I can find the files that need to be updated
Here's the GitHub link to one of the batches of files I'm working with.
This line ,,"compatibility":{"minimum":"9","verified":"10"}," needs to say" 11" in all the files
I have made a python script and ran it on a clone of your git repo to confirm it works, simply run it at the root directory of wherever the files are, it will walk through and find module.json and do the replace.
#!/usr/bin/env python3 import re import os import fileinput pattern = re.compile(r'(?P\.+)\"compatibility\":{\"minimum\":\"(?P\\d+)\",\"verified\":\"(?P\\d+)\"},(?P\.+)') def make11(match): if match.groupdict().get('min', None) and match.groupdict().get('ver', None): return f"{match.groupdict()['pre']}\"compatibility\":{{\"minimum\":\"11\",\"verified\":\"11\"}},{match.groupdict()['post']}" for root, dirs, files in os.walk("."): for file in files: if file == "module.json": for line in fileinput.input(f"{root}/{file}", inplace=True): print(re.sub(pattern, make11, line))
edit: lemmy is fucking with the formatting and removing the fucking regex group names, which will bork it. I've tried fixing it, dm me if you want me to send a downloadable link to the script
If using Python, why not just use JSON module? Simpler and easier maintain without all those regex.
Still +1, on sed if one is on Linux.

Holy shit that's awesome! Thanks
Nah, regexes are okay if you really have no other choice, but they're a bit of a hamfisted tool. For a json file, which is a neatly structured format, I would always try to do it with
jq
first.
