Once again, I spend a long time debugging something which was quite obvious (well, at least when I discovered the solution…)
Trying to copy all the files from a .m3u playlist file (in each line there is a file path), I used ruby (well bash and zsh are not as funny as ruby), and especially the FileUtils.cp function.
The code is as follow :
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 |
require 'fileutils' count=0 string = String.new File.open("/home/anthony/Documents/playlist_ok.m3u").each { |line| if(count!=0) if((!line.include?"#")) string = line.chomp FileUtils.cp string,'./' end end count = count+1 } puts "Nombre lignes traitées : " + count.to_s |
Well, my mistake was to forget to add the line :
string = line.chomp
because when you don’t, Ruby add the extra « \n » at the end of every line, and then FileUtils returns to you this very explicit message :
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:1200:in stat': No such file or directory - (Errno::ENOENT)lstat'
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:1200:in

And believe me, it takes a while to debug… (irb was helful to solve this bug by the way !)
