Ruby on Rails: How do I move all files from one folder to another folder?

Question

But I also need a way to rename them incase there are conflicts.

Like if exists? then file.name = "1-"+file.name or something like that

Hello,

Maybe something like this works for you:

origin = '/test_dir'
destination = '/another_test_dir'

Dir.glob(File.join(origin, '*')).each do |file|
  if File.exists?(file)
    File.move file, File.join(destination, "1-#{File.basename(file)}")
  else
    File.move file, File.join(destination, File.basename(file))
  end
end

I didn't test this code, so let me know if it worked for you. If not we can iterate over it ;)

Best regards.
