Am currently brainstorming what I need from file-organizer. Here are some things that come to mind:
- Ability to organize a specified directory and its subdirectories as specified in a specification document.
- Not sure what a specification document would look like yet, but it will likely be something like YAML or something else.
- No, I don't expect everybody to come up with their own specifications. I hope to also provide a set of standard specification documents.
- Ability to organize files according to file metadata.
- Don't know enough about how each type of file manages metadata, but filorg should be able to extract exif data from photos, frontmatter yaml from markdown, etc.
- Ability to acknowledge versioned directories and warn against reorganizing them.
- Warn when directories are out of compliance with a given specification
- point out where the directory organization is at fault
- suggest and be able to organize the directory if set to do so.
Commands:
filorg organize SPECIFICATION PATH
