# Quarto Batch Converter
## Description
Quarto Batch Converter is a utility that converts `ipynb` files to `qmd` files using the [Quarto command line](https://quarto.org/). This tool is designed to simplify the process of converting multiple `ipynb` files at once, making it ideal for large projects or batch conversions.
This cli is equivalent to perform the following statement on multiple times:
```sh
quarto convert file.ipynb
```
## Features
* Converts files to files using `quarto convert` (`ipynb` to `qmd`, `qmd` to `ipynb`)
* Filters file based on extension (default: `ipynb`)
* Filters file based on a match pattern that could be replaced for the output file (e.g. `_test.ipynb` -> `test.qmd`)
* Preserves the original directory structure of the input files
* Allows specifying a prefix for the converted files
* Supports glob style paths as well as recursion in the subdirectory
## Installation
To install Quarto Batch Converter, run the following command:
```bash
pipx install quarto_batch_convert
```
This will install the package and make the `quarto_batch_convert` and its alias `qbc` command line available.
## Usage
To use Quarto Batch Converter, navigate to the directory containing the `ipynb` files you want to convert and run the following command:
```bash
quarto_batch_convert <input_paths> [options]
```
Replace `<input_paths>` with one or more directory paths, file paths, or glob patterns to search for `ipynb` files.
### Options
* `-e`, `--extension`: File extension to filter files when input is a directory (default: `.ipynb`)
* `-m`, `--match-replace-pattern`: Match pattern and optional replace pattern, separated by a forward slash. If no slash is present, only matching is performed.
* `-p`, `--prefix`: Prefix to add to the new file name
* `-k`, `--keep-extension`: Keep the original extension as part of the filename
* `-o`, `--output-path`: Output path where to generate the `.qmd` files (default: current directory)
* `-r`, `--recursive`: Search files recursively when input is a directory
### Examples
* Convert all `ipynb` files in the current directory (no subdirectory):
```bash
quarto_batch_convert .
```
* Convert all `ipynb` files in the `notebooks` directory and its subdirectories:
```bash
quarto_batch_convert notebooks -r
```
* Convert all `ipynb` files in the `notebooks` directory and add a prefix `converted_` to the output files:
```bash
quarto_batch_convert notebooks -p converted_
```
* Convert all `ipynb` files in the `notebooks` directory and replace the string `old_` with `new_` in the file names:
```bash
quarto_batch_convert notebooks -m old_/new_
```
