PK4 Directory Search

[Goldwell]

What is this?

 

This is a simple text based list of all the files (and their directories) located in all PK4 files found in The Dark Mod base directory.

 

I've found that during my time working on FM's there have been occasions where I wanted to locate or use a file apart of the core mod, sometimes the files are in the places you expect and other times not.

 

So I decided to create this list to easily locate a file. Once you know the file name/directory that you're looking for just open the list, hit CTRL+F and you can see which PK4 your file is stored in.

 

If there is enough interest in this I will keep this thread updated as new versions come out.

Oh yeah this will save some time. Thanks!

Nice one fella.

SteveL also made a python script that searches files inside pk4 files (without extracting them) for terms you can specify. That way you can search for example for specific spawnargs. It was linked in some other threads (that I currently don't remember), but I think it would also fit in here:

 

 

 

"""Search text files in FMs and TDM assets"""
import re, os, fnmatch, zipfile

PATHS = [ r"E:\Spiele\Stealth\TDM" ] #, r"E:\dm-dev\campaign"]
FILE_EXTS = ['.def'] # '.mtr', '.prt', ,'.skin','.fx','.md5mesh','.pfb', '.anim', '.md5anim','.gui','.map','.script','.gui','.def'
SEARCH_PTN = r'urinate' # regular expression

def searchPk4(pk4, exts):
"""Look in a pk4 archive and yield files with any of the extensions
in exts. Returns ( filename, filecontents ). filename includes any
directory path internal to the archive.

pk4: full path, e.g. r'E:\darkmod\tdm_defs01.pk4'
exts: list or tuple of bare extensions, e.g. ['def', 'mtr']
"""
f = zipfile.ZipFile(pk4, 'r')
for member in f.infolist():
ext = (os.path.splitext(member.filename)[1]).lower()
if ext in exts:
yield member.filename, f.read(member)

def findTDMFiles(paths, exts):
"""Yield tuples: (filepath, filecontents) of all files
found in paths with any of the extensions in exts. Looks inside
pk4 archives, but not nested archives.

paths, exts are sequences containing one or more paths / extensions.
"""
for path in set(paths):
for root, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(path):
for ext in set( ['.pk4'] + exts):
for filename in fnmatch.filter(filenames, '*'+ext):
fpath = os.path.join(root, filename)
if ext == '.pk4':
for internalname, content in searchPk4(fpath, exts):
yield ( fpath + ' -> ' + internalname, content )
else:
yield fpath, file(fpath).read()

if __name__ == '__main__':
search_regex = re.compile(SEARCH_PTN, re.IGNORECASE)
context_regex = re.compile("[^\n]{0,250}(" + SEARCH_PTN + ")[^\n]{0,250}", re.IGNORECASE)

result = '\n~~~~~ RESULT:\n'
for fname, text in findTDMFiles(PATHS, FILE_EXTS):
print "Checking " + fname
refs = search_regex.findall(text)
if refs:
print '***** %s *****' % fname
result += '***** %s *****\n' % fname
for r in context_regex.finditer(text):
print r.group().strip()
result += r.group().strip() + '\n'
print result

 

 

PS: The current path and search terms are from my last search for the urinate animation and have to be changed accordingly.

Great idea! I really need this
