d6o / gorganizer Goto Github PK

Hi, I've already commented on your reddit post as porkbonk.

Ideas for another way to store and query rules:

• JSON (see encoding/json)

  {
      "Music": [
          "mp3",
          "wav"
      ],
          "Archive": [
          "7z",
          "tar"
      ]
  }
  

• CSV with varying amount of columns (see encoding/csv). This is easy and easy to edit. But it will be difficult to extend or add new features.

  Music;mp3;wav
  Archive;7z;tar
  

Otherwise YAML or TOML might be the most user friendly, but then you'd have an external dependency.

I'm able to add other extensions (opf for example) but not mp4.

Instead of printing a simple log, it would be nice if the changes would be grouped by folder. Just like in the screenshot in the readme.

e.g.

Videos
    a.mkv
    b.avi

Documents
    CV.doc
...

IMO it's way easier to read and see what's going on.

Is it available in the current version?

Extensions like .PDF or .JPG are not handled, would be cool to add support for them.

In ubuntu mate 16.04 , when i try install locally with $ go get github.com/DiSiqueira/Gorganizer, following error message is shown on terminal:

../.gvm/pkgsets/go1.10/global/src/github.com/DiSiqueira/Gorganizer/gorganizer.go:31:23: cannot use newFile (type gotree.GTStructure) as type *gotree.GTStructure in append

v0.1's tarball doesn't contain any valid source code:

$ tree .
.
├── bin
│   └── gorganizer
├── gorganizer-logo.png
├── LICENSE
├── README.md
└── src
    ├── bolt.go
    ├── defaultdb.go
    ├── gorganizer.go
    └── rules.go

2 directories, 8 files

which prevents me from packaging Gorganizer for Gentoo/Linux, since I get :

can't load package: package github.com/DiSiqueira/Gorganizer: no buildable Go source files in /var/tmp/portage/dev-util/gorganizer-0.1/work/gopath/src/github.com/DiSiqueira/Gorganizer

For the moment I temporarily resolved by pulling in the HEAD of the repository instead of the tarball.
Please, meanwhile can you supply a proper tarball release with all the source codes? Thank you :)

p.s.: don't package Gorganizer's executable inside the tarball, it's considered a bad practise.

This way it'd be really easy too see what kind of rules you might be missing.

The default rules should be moved into a .txt or .csv file. This will allow normal users (i.e, non-developers) to add rules easily and still use Gorganizer :-)

Instead of a file in the current working directory, use a user-specific path.

e.g. $HOME/.gorganizer.json, see os/user.User

If some folders are "special" and need other settings you could do it like this:

1. Check current working directory for .gorganizer.json and use it it only if it exists.
2. Otherwise use $HOME/.gorganizer.json as a default.

That way you can have folder-specific settings if you want. Otherwise it's user-specific.
