find distinct subfolder

[Tom Pot]

Hi together,
 
I have a macro that loops through folders and subfolders to process images. The problem I encountered is that the macro should only process the images in a subfolder named e.g. test_folder. Afterwards it should screen the next folder and subfolders for the next 'test_folder'.
 
I use the following code to loop through folders and subfolders:
 
dir = getDirectory("Select Subjects Directory");
   setBatchMode(true);
   count = 0;
   countFiles(dir);
   n = 0;
   processFiles(dir);
   //print(count+" files processed");
   function countFiles(dir) {
      list = getFileList(dir);
      for (i=0; i<list.length; i++) {
          if (endsWith(list[i], "/"))
              countFiles(""+dir+list[i]);
          else
              count++;
      }
  }
   function processFiles(dir) {
      list = getFileList(dir);
      for (i=0; i<list.length; i++) {
          if (endsWith(list[i], "/"))
              processFiles(""+dir+list[i]);
             
        isDirectory(newdir);              
          else {
             showProgress(n++, count);
             path = dir+list[i];
             calculate_first(path);            // process function 1
             calculate_second(path);       // process function 2
          }
      }
  }
 
Does anybody has an idea how to search a distinct subfolder within my subjects dir ?
 
I´m very thankful for any suggestions,
Thomas

Hey Thomas,

maybe you want to do this in some separate steps.

1) loop through your folder structure and list/store all found folders

2) filter the results of the first step for your ".*test_folder.*"
with the built in "endsWith" or "matches" function and store these
results in a new list or array.

3) work on the resulting list/array from step 2 and applying your
desired processing.


Maybe this helps you out somehow..
