DeClutter

DeClutter is a ruby script that organizes the files in your folder. It is meant to organize a large group of files like for example your Download Folder.

How to use?

Requires ruby to installed and present

git clone git@github.com:coderhs/de_clutter.git
cd de_clutter
bundle install
ruby de_clutter organize_folder ~/Downloads

You can get more information about the options available by running:

ruby de_clutter organize_folder --help

How it works

It work using an internal db (2 JSON files) mapping each mime type to a category. If a mimetype is not available it uses a second file to categorize based on extension.

Future Improvement ideas - PR(s) Appreciated!

1. Load the categorization data from an external API or library.
2. A preview / Interface to show the different classification(s), and allow the user to modify the destination before moving. Web UI/GUI app.
