folderize

The folderize utility copies files from multiple sources into a single destination folder.  In the destination folder the files are sorted in a folder tree created by their last modification time (mtime).

Synopsis

folderize [-c] --input PATH ... [--output PATH] [--locale LOCALE] [--exclude REGEX]

Options

--input, -i PATH ...

The input folder(s).

--output, -o PATH

The destination folder.  The current folder (./) is used as default.

--dirstruct, -d STRING

Structure that should be constructed in the output directory.  Every slash will create a new subdirectory.  The default is %Y/%B/%e which will result in 2020/February/1.

Day		Month		Year
e	Day 1	m	Month, 2-digit 02	Y	Year 2020
d	Day, 2-digit 01	b	Month, short Feb	y	Year, 2-digit 20
		B	Month, long February
1 February 2020

--locale, -l LOCALE

The locale to be used for folder creation in the destination folder.  Locales other than english need at least node v.13 or node build with full-icu.  The default is en−US.

--exclude, -e REGEX

The files and/or folders names which shall not be copied.  The regex must not be enclosed by slashes.

--cache, -c

Enables the creation/use of the cache file `folderize.cache'.

Tests

There is currently an integration test that should be run with the same options, excluding input and output, like you would intend to run folderize itself.
