Modify Python Script to Batch Convert all “WOFF” Files in Directory

Question

I have been using a great open-source python script by GitHub user @hanikesn (see below) that converts a single WOFF file back into OTF format via command line (Terminal on

Answer 1

You are using zsh, aren't you? so to loop on your WOFF files you could to do

for f in *.woff ; /complete/path/to/your/script.py $f

Answer 2

If you want create an Drag&drop app, you could:

• open the Automator.app
• select "Application"
• in the left-side Library find the Filter Finder Items action
• drag it into the right
• add the extenstion is woff condition
• in the Library find the Run Shell Script action
• change the Pass input popup to as arguments
• drag&drop the your woff2otf.py into the place of the echo (you will get it's full path name)
• save the app somewhere as woff2otf.app
• congratz - you're done with your 1st OS X application. :)

Just drag the woff files into the application icon and it should convert them. I can't test it, because i havent installed python3.

The final app should be as in the following screenshot:

EDIT: If your python3 command isn't in the standard command search $PATH, you must change the line:

• /path/to/the/woff2otf.py "$f" to
• /path/to/your/python3 /path/to/the/woff2otf.py "$f"

I installed python3 using anyenv - e.g. it wont help you. Therefore my python3 is:

$ type python3
python3 is /opt/anyenv/envs/pyenv/shims/python3

so the line in the shell script (for me) looks like:

/opt/anyenv/envs/pyenv/shims/python3 ~/bin/woff2otf.py "$f"

But, your installation is surely different.
