DoenaSoft.AdaptBookFileNames

A .NET library for organizing and standardizing audiobook and e-book file names with consistent naming conventions.

Overview

DoenaSoft.AdaptBookFileNames is a reusable library that provides processors for batch renaming audiobook files (MP3, M4A, MP4) and e-book files (EPUB, MOBI). It handles sequential numbering, chapter information extraction, and associated file renaming (covers, PDFs, XMLs).

Features

• Audiobook Processing: Renames MP3, M4A, and MP4 files with sequential numbering and chapter support
• E-Book Processing: Renames EPUB and MOBI files to match book names
• Chapter Management: Intelligently extracts and appends chapter information from file names
• Sequential Numbering: Automatically numbers files with appropriate zero-padding
• Cover Image Standardization: Renames cover images (JPG/JPEG) to cover.jpg
• Associated Files: Renames related PDF, EPUB, MOBI, and XML files alongside audiobooks
• Abstraction Layer: Built on DoenaSoft.AbstractionLayer.IO for testability and flexibility
• Interactive Interface: Supports custom user interaction implementations

Installation

Install via NuGet Package Manager:

Install-Package DoenaSoft.AdaptBookFileNames

Or via .NET CLI:

dotnet add package DoenaSoft.AdaptBookFileNames

Usage

Basic Audiobook Processing

using DoenaSoft.AdaptBookFileNames;
using DoenaSoft.AbstractionLayer.IOServices;

var ioServices = new IOServices();
var interaction = new YourInteractionImplementation();
var renameQueue = new RenameQueue(ioServices);

renameQueue.Initialize();

var processor = new AudioBookProcessor(
 renameQueue, 
 ioServices.Path, 
 interaction
);

var folder = ioServices.GetFolder(@"C:\Audiobooks\BookFolder");
processor.Process(folder);

var renamedCount = renameQueue.Commit();
Console.WriteLine($"{renamedCount} files renamed.");

Basic E-Book Processing

using DoenaSoft.AdaptBookFileNames;
using DoenaSoft.AbstractionLayer.IOServices;

var ioServices = new IOServices();
var interaction = new YourInteractionImplementation();
var renameQueue = new RenameQueue(ioServices);

renameQueue.Initialize();

var processor = new EBookProcessor(
 renameQueue, 
 ioServices.Path, 
 interaction
);

var folder = ioServices.GetFolder(@"C:\EBooks\BookFolder");
processor.Process(folder);

var renamedCount = renameQueue.Commit();

Implementing IInteraction

You need to provide an implementation of IInteraction for user input/output:

public class ConsoleInteraction : IInteraction
{
 public string ReadLine() => Console.ReadLine();
 
 public void WriteLine(string message = null) => Console.WriteLine(message);
}

API Reference

IBookProcessor

Interface for book file processors.

• Process(IFolderInfo folder): Processes all book files in the specified folder.

AudioBookProcessor

Processes audiobook files with sequential numbering and chapter support.

Constructor Parameters:

• IRenameQueue renameQueue: Queue for file rename operations
• IPath path: Path service for file operations
• IInteraction interaction: User interaction service

Behavior:

• Finds all MP3, M4A, and MP4 files in the folder
• Prompts user for book name (defaults to folder name)
• Numbers multiple files sequentially (e.g., 01 Book Name.mp3, 02 Book Name.mp3)
• Extracts chapter information from file names containing dashes
• Renames associated cover images, e-books, and XML files

EBookProcessor

Processes e-book files (EPUB, MOBI).

Constructor Parameters:

• IRenameQueue renameQueue: Queue for file rename operations
• IPath path: Path service for file operations
• IInteraction interaction: User interaction service

Behavior:

• Finds all EPUB and MOBI files in the folder
• Prompts user for book name (defaults to folder name)
• Renames files to match the book name while preserving extensions
• Alerts if unexpected number of files found (expects 0 or 2)
• Renames associated cover images

IInteraction

Interface for user input/output operations.

• string ReadLine(): Reads a line of text from the input stream
• void WriteLine(string message): Writes a message to the output stream

Example Scenarios

Audiobook with Chapters

Input files:

01 - Introduction.mp3
02 - Chapter One - The Beginning.mp3
03 - Chapter Two - The Journey.mp3

After processing with book name "My Audiobook":

01 My Audiobook - Introduction.mp3
02 My Audiobook - Chapter One - The Beginning.mp3
03 My Audiobook - Chapter Two - The Journey.mp3

E-Book Files

Input files:

some_ebook_file.epub
some_ebook_file.mobi
cover_image.jpg

After processing with book name "The Great Novel":

The Great Novel.epub
The Great Novel.mobi
cover.jpg
