How to rename image name in a folder using python? [duplicate]

Question

I have over 2000 images in a folder that needs to be renamed. Currently, it's a default name as w=0&h=-_BACl339n_c4PTZDlVgaHWg9s1k_Vyz8PbhNhhXkQk=0 and I need it to name it as fear_1 and all the other images in this format. Is there any way to achieve this?

Yes. Have you tried searching for similar posts? Rename multiple files in Python, Renaming multiple files in a directory using Python, etc. — Gino Mempin

Use os.listdir to get all the filenames and os.rename to rename them

import os
path = '//path//to//folder'
files = os.listdir(path)


for index, file in enumerate(files):
    os.rename(os.path.join(path, file), os.path.join(path, ''.join(['fear_',str(index+1), '.jpg'])))
