File Organizer

A simple Python script that allows users to organize their files by creating folders and renaming them based on custom rules.

Features

Organize Files into Directories

• Create new folders with specified names (e.g., "Documents", "Images")
• Rename files within each folder using a bulk rename pattern
• Move files older than 30 days to an archive directory

Requirements

 python import os from PIL import Image, ImageTk import tkinter as tk from tkinter import filedialog, messagebox, ttk import json

Usage

1. Clone the repository using git clone https://github.com/your-username/file-organizer.git
2. Run the script using python file_organizer.py in your terminal/command prompt
3. Select directories to organize and search files as needed (e.g., use the "Add Directory" button)
4. Use the GUI interface to customize settings, such as custom rules for renaming and handling duplicates

Configuration File

The script loads configuration data from a JSON file named config.json in the root directory of your repository.

Configurations

• Images: .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif, .bmp, .svg
• Documents: .pdf, .docx, .txt, .xlsx, .pptx, .csv
• Videos: .mp4, .mkv, .mov, .avi, .flv
• Music: .mp3, .wav, .aac, .flac
• Archives: .zip, .rar, .tar, .gz
• Code: .py, .js, .html, .css, .java, .cpp

Custom Rules

You can customize the script by editing the config.json file to add or modify rules for renaming files. The available options are:

• Bulk rename pattern (e.g., "old_name_{counter}.txt")
• Handle duplicates: move back to original location
• Archive older than 30 days

Example Use Cases

1. Organize a large directory of images and videos into folders based on custom rules.
2. Create an archive for files that are no longer needed, using the script's bulk rename feature.
