Move and replace if same file name already exists?

Question

Here is below code which will move and replace individual file:

import shutil
import os
src = \'scrFolder\'
dst = \'./dstFolder/\'
filelist = []

files = os.         


        

Answer 1

If you specify the full path to the destination (not just the directory) then shutil.move will overwrite any existing file:

shutil.move(os.path.join(src, filename), os.path.join(dst, filename))
