I am using [[http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/][Python PEP8]] and occasionally some ideas from [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test-driven_development][Test Driven
|
||||
Development (TDD)]]. I fancy Python3 with [[https://typing.python.org/en/latest/spec/annotations.html][type annotations]], although I'm
|
||||
not using them everywhere at the moment. Starting with 2025, I began
|
||||
to use help from Claude.ai which is a huge improvement, given my lack
|
||||
of programming practice and knowledge.
|
||||
|
||||
After all, each of my tools was developed because I needed its
|
||||
functionality and could not get it elsewhere - at least to my
|
||||
knowledge or taste.

This tool is part of a tool-set which I use to manage my digital files
|

such as photographs. My work-flows are described in [[http://karl-voit.at/managing-digital-photographs/][this blog posting]]

- For *tagging*, please refer to [[https://github.com/novoid/filetags][filetags]] and its documentation. It's
|

the most important part of the whole concept on how I manage files.

||||
See [[https://github.com/novoid/date2name][date2name]] for easily adding ISO *time-stamps or date-stamps* to

files.

Having tagged photographs gives you many advantages. For example, I
|

automatically [[https://github.com/novoid/set_desktop_background_according_to_season][choose my *desktop background image* according to the
|
||||
current season]].
|
||||
- Naming files is tedious. Therefore, I wrote [[https://github.com/novoid/guess-filename.py/][guessfilename]]:
|
||||
Python-script, guesses according to file name, optional PDF content,
|
||||
optional video json metadata.
|

Files containing an ISO time/date-stamp gets indexed by the

filename-module of [[https://github.com/novoid/Memacs][Memacs]].

|
||||
|
||||
* How to Thank Me
|
||||
- Alternative implementations of the =filetags= concept:
|
||||
- [[https://github.com/beutelma/filetags.el][GitHub - DerBeutlin/filetags.el: Emacs package to manage filetags in the filename]]
|
||||
- With [[https://github.com/protesilaos/denote][denote]], Protesilaos Stavrou implemented a conceptually
|
||||
related approach to manage notes within an Emacs buffer. With
|
||||
[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dired][Emacs/dired]], this method equally may be applied on files, too.
|
||||
|
||||
I'm glad you like my tools. If you want to support me:
|
||||
- Related to =date2name=:
|
||||
- https://github.com/DerBeutlin/date2name.el Alternative implementation for [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dired][Emacs/dired]]
|
||||
- https://github.com/muehlburger/d2n Alternative implementation in [[https://go.dev/][Go]]
|
||||
|
||||
- Send old-fashioned *postcard* per snailmail - I love personal feedback!
|
||||
- see [[http://tinyurl.com/j6w8hyo][my address]]
|
||||
- Send feature wishes or improvements as an issue on GitHub
|
||||
- Create issues on GitHub for bugs
|
||||
- Contribute merge requests for bug fixes
|
||||
- Check out my other cool [[https://github.com/novoid][projects on GitHub]]
|
||||
- Related to =m2a=:
|
||||
- https://github.com/velvet-jones/imgfiler/
|
||||
|
||||
- Related to =guessfilename=:
|
||||
- [[http://www.jonasjberg.com/][Jonas Sjöberg]] took my idea and developed the much more advanced (and
|
||||
thus a bit more complicated) [[https://github.com/jonasjberg/autonameow][autonameow]]. It uses rule-based renaming,
|
||||
analyzes content of plain text, epub, pdf and rtf files, extracts
|
||||
meta-data from many different file formats via [[https://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/%257Ephil/exiftool/][exiftool]] and so forth.
|
||||
- [[https://www.reddit.com/r/datacurator/comments/f6ku5p/building_an_auto_file_sorter_need_requirements/][This reddit thread]] brought me to [[https://github.com/unreadablewxy/fs-curator][fs-curator]] whose [[https://github.com/unreadablewxy/fs-curator/wiki][documentation]] looks
|
||||
promising. I did not test it and it's still in an early stage.
|
||||
However, it could be a future user-friendly part of a workflow that
|
||||
watches folders for file changes and applies processes like
|
||||
guessfilename.
|
||||
- I you don't need the full power of a programming language,
|
||||
[[https://github.com/tfeldmann/organize][organize]] might do the trick for you. Instead of coding Python, you
|
||||
define your rules within a text file. For many people, this may
|
||||
seem more user friendly.
|
||||
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
- A research platform for testing file-tagging on all platforms: [[https://karl-voit.at/tagstore/][tagstore]]
|
||||
- This happens to be an important part of [[https://karl-voit.at/tagstore/downloads/Voit2012b.pdf][my PhD thesis]] in PIM.
|
||||
- Not maintained since 2013 any more but surely still a cool
|
||||
starting point in case you want to get a flexible tool when doing
|
||||
research with tagging interfaces.
|
||||
|
||||
- Good resources for tagging software in general
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
- If you do like filetags but you prefer the syntax of [[https://www.tagspaces.org/][TagSpaces]] for
|
||||
adding tags to file names, you should check out [[https://github.com/jgru/filetags][this filetags fork]].
|
||||
Maintenance is limited though. Please notice that my other tools
|
||||
working with tags do not support TagSpaces-style either.
|
||||
|
||||
- https://forge.chapril.org/tykayn/rangement.git
|
||||
- An NPM implementation of a subset of GuessFileName (using image exif header), append2name, move2archive
|
||||
- You probably need to read a bit of French
