Sort Me
Sortme is a ruby application that helps you organize your media files by moving them from their current location to the appropriate media folder.
At the initial run, user sets up his path of preference for video, audio and picture files.
Installation
The User should have ruby set on his pc
The app is installed as a gem by running:
$ gem install sortme
Usage
After installation
Navigate via commandline to the folder you wish to sort your media files from and type sortme
.
At first run, user has the option to use system default paths or custom paths
- To use default paths enter "y" at the prompt
- To use custom paths enter "n" and proceed to set up your media paths like so
/Users/USER/movies
/Users/USER/music
/Users/USER/pictures
Note: This is just an example path. If you are not familiar with file paths, hit y and press enter to use default paths for your system
The files are then moved to the set folders according to their media type.
You do not need to set paths on subsequent calls of sortme
as the default paths will be saved in a .json file.
Changing Paths
Advanced
To edit your default paths, navigate to your home and locate sortme_settings.json
and edit..
Others
- Go to your home directory and delete the
sortme_settings.json
file. - Run sortme again
