Just something I threw together to help a team I work with deal with stupid people submitting log files.

fix_stupid.py

import re, os, sys

# This simple script will scan all log files in a folder to verify the name matches the player name used in the game.
# If not, the script will list the logs that don't match the name and prompt to correct using the log specified name.

path_to_check = os.getcwd() # <-- Default is current direcctory, this should be changed if the script is not run in the same folder as the log files.
log_file_extention = ".log"
regular_expression_to_get_actual_in_game_name = r"playerName = (\w+)"


the_stupid_list = dict()

pattern = re.compile(regular_expression_to_get_actual_in_game_name, re.IGNORECASE)
os.chdir(path_to_check)
files = os.listdir(path_to_check)

print("Please wait as Igor searches for stupid...", end ="")

for file in files:
  print(".", end="")

  # If file is not a log file, skip it.
  if file[-4:] != log_file_extention:
    continue

  # Read Log Data
  current_log = open(file)
  current_log_data = current_log.read()
  current_log.close()

  # Search for In Game Name
  result = pattern.search(current_log_data)

  if result is None:
  	continue

  # Converting to uppercase just incase there is an in game stupid
  in_game_name = result.group(1).upper()

  # Get File name
  file_name = file[:-4]

  # Momment of truth!
  if file_name != in_game_name:
  	# Doh! Add to the stupid list
    the_stupid_list[file_name] = in_game_name

print("DONE!")

# Check if there were stupid people
if len(the_stupid_list) == 0:
	print("\n\nLucky You!\nNo stupid people were found in this batch!\n")
	sys.exit(0)

# Show the Stupid List!
print("\n\nAlas there is stupid in these logs!\n\n RESULTS:\n --------\n", the_stupid_list, "\n")

# Prompt if we should automatically correct
what_do = input("Master... Shall I correct the stupid? (y/N) : ")
if what_do.upper() != 'Y':
  print("\n\nOf course master... I will leave it to you.\n")
  sys.exit(len(the_stupid_list))

# Fix the stupid!
print("\nPlease wait as Igor dose your bidding...", end = "")
for log in the_stupid_list:
	print(".", end ="")
	os.rename(log + log_file_extention, the_stupid_list[log] + log_file_extention)
	# print(log, the_stupid_list[log] + log_file_extention) # I left this in here for Debugging

print("DONE!\n\nThe Deed is done master!\nI hope master is pleased with Igor.\n")
sys.exit()

FYI: The script will error if a log file already exists during the renaming process. I felt leaving the failure in place was better than skipping or forcing a rename.

FYI: Any comments made that could potentially violate the NDA will be deleted.

ALSO, keep in mind this only accounts for the FIRST player name encountered in the log. If the player changed there name for "reasons" it won;t be seen. I suppose I could edit the script to only get the most recent player name but instructions had a portion that would have caused issue if implemented.
