Declutter you folders and get peace of mind. A command-line tool to organize files into category directories.
pip install dirganizeDirganize has an ultra simple command-line interface.
Just move into the directory you want to organize, and run dirganize.
You can also specify which folder to organize by using the path option.
dirganize --path ~/DownloadsIf no path is specified, dirganize works on the current directory.
By default dirganize determines the destination folder for a particular file by
guessing its type from its extension.
The
guess_type
function of python's inbuilt module
mimetypes
is used for this purpose.
NOTE Dotfiles are not affected by dirganize.
You can put a .dirganize.yml file ( inside the folder you want to dirganize )
to provide a custom configuration.
# .dirganize.yml
# folder: [ext1,ext2, ...]
Animations: [gif]
Binaries: [bin,dat]Basically you have the folder name, mapped to the list of file types to put in that folder.
Dirganize will first try to determine the destination directory from the .dirganize.yml.
When the yaml configuration file is absent or
the folder for an encountered file type is not defined in the configuration,
dirganize will fallback to the default technique.
