πŸ’» Cli First

FileSorterX is a powerful command-line interface (CLI) tool designed to help users automatically organize and sort their files. What sets FileSorterX apart from other similar tools is the separation between its library and the CLI tool. The library provides all of the core functionality like the creation and sorting of files. While the CLI tool serves as a convenient interface for users to interact with the library think of it as a cli wrapper. Although the primary focus is on the CLI application, the separation of the library and the tool ensures that users have the flexibility to integrate the sorting and organization functionality into their own projects or applications. With FileSorterX, users can easily manage and organize their files without having to spend hours doing it manually.

  • Telemetry is Opt-out

    Telemetry is Opt-out

    1. Telemetry is enabled by default, which will not be met well in the Linux community.
    2. Telemetry collects data that can identify user (e.g. input_dir = "/exl_arch/β€”3β€”PROJβ€”3β€”/eurystheus/src/" or input_dir = /home/exl/β€”2β€”POLYβ€”2β€”/music/).

    Solution: Make telemetry Opt-in, so when user encounters error they can enable this feature once and submit useful data that way. Also this will not create ton of useless data.

  • Wrong syntax in the README

    Wrong syntax in the README

    Hello,

    While trying out your software I just followed the example given in the README and it seems the syntax isn't correct.

    /tmp/00 % ~/bin/FileSorterX_v1.2.0_x86_64-unknown-freebsd customsort --input /tmp/00 --output /tmp/00/textfolder --extension txt --verbose 
    error: unexpected argument '--input' found
    
      tip: a similar argument exists: '--inputdir'
    
    Usage: FileSorterX_v1.2.0_x86_64-unknown-freebsd customsort <--inputdir <INPUTDIR>|--outputdir <OUTPUTDIR>|--extension <EXTENSION>|--verbose|--log>
    
    For more information, try '--help'.
    

    Then I just used the syntax given by the tip and usage and it worked.

    /tmp/00 % ~/bin/FileSorterX_v1.2.0_x86_64-unknown-freebsd customsort --inputdir /tmp/00 --outputdir /tmp/00/textfolder --extension txt --verbose                                     % 16:05:02
    Moved file: "/tmp/00/file_3.txt" to "/tmp/00/textfolder"
    Moved file: "/tmp/00/file_4.txt" to "/tmp/00/textfolder"
    Moved file: "/tmp/00/file_5.txt" to "/tmp/00/textfolder"
    Moved file: "/tmp/00/file_2.txt" to "/tmp/00/textfolder"
    Moved file: "/tmp/00/file_1.txt" to "/tmp/00/textfolder"
    Moved file: "/tmp/00/file_6.txt" to "/tmp/00/textfolder"
    

    So --inputdir --outputdir are correct but not --input and --output .

  • FreeBSD Missing Dependency

    FreeBSD Missing Dependency

    Hi there,

    FileSorterX complains about a missing dependency libssl.so.11 which is installed by the package openssl, it's not installed by default at least in my case. Once openssl is installed FileSortedX doesn't give any warning and works.

    OS: FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE Package version: FileSorterX_v1.2.0_x86_64-unknown-freebsd

  • Remove the self update feature from the Linux version

    Remove the self update feature from the Linux version

    Due to the self updater fetching the update from GitHub; it requires open ssl. Which I cant seem to get to compile on Linux; meaning that to have a Linux version available the self updating feature will have to be removed.

    (Only for the Linux platform, windows will still have the self update feature)

  • Add Basic telemetry

    Add Basic telemetry

    Add some basic optional telemetry that will collect things like The command used; Operating system; Time taken and more info; then use that to generate a unique id to be used in bug reports.

    Mostly a small QOL epically for the development of the project so people can send their issue; anything they think is important. And the UUID of the command ran; then we can use all that information to figure out exactly what went wrong and why.

    I know some users aren't a fan of telemetry so the feature can be disabled entirely with a flag (-d / --disable-telemetry).

  • Add macOS support

    Add macOS support

    I would love to open this application to be macOS compatible; but sadly I cant seem to find a reliable way to cross-compile from windows to macOS. As I don't have a mac device to compile it natively on. This will have to go in the backburner until I can either find a reliable way to cross compile; or a contributor wishes to port the application
