nemo_copy_folder_content_list's Introduction

nemo_copy_folder_content_list: Creates list of folderNames, and, a fileNames. (NOT full paths of each file)

Installation Guide: Nemo_Copy_Folder_Content_List

This nemo_action:

allows users to copy the names of all items within a folder to the clipboard, excluding their directory paths for a succinct listing.

Enabled Features

  • Clipboard Copying: Effortlessly copies just the item names in a folder to the clipboard.
  • Path Exclusion: Smartly omits the directory paths for a cleaner output.
  • Installation: No need to modify file paths or usernames, as the script dynamically resolves the current user's home directory.
  • Self-Cleaning: Post-installation, the script engages in a thorough clean-up process, deleting the cloned repository from your home directory. This action ensures your workspace remains uncluttered, preserving the sanctity and available space of your home directory without leaving behind any residual files or folders.

Quick Start

SingleCommand Install

To install the Nemo action on Linux Mint, open a terminal and execute this SingleCommand:

REPO_URL="https://github.com/ForDefault/nemo_copy_folder_content_list.git" && \
REPO_NAME=$(basename $REPO_URL .git) && \
git clone $REPO_URL && \
cd $REPO_NAME && \
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y xclip && \
sed -i "s|/home/\$USER|/home/$USER|g" list_documents.nemo_action && \
mv list_documents.sh /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/ && \
mv list_documents.nemo_action /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/ && \
chmod +x /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/list_documents.sh && \
chmod +x /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/list_documents.nemo_action && \
cd .. && rm -rf $REPO_NAME

Usage

After installation, right-click on any folder in Nemo and select "List Document Names" from the context menu. The names of all items in the folder (both files and directories) will be copied to your clipboard without their paths.

My Other Nemo Actions:

Post-Installation

You might need to restart Nemo(I dont but you can). This command quits Nemo, and you can then reopen it normally.

nemo -q

Troubleshooting

If the action does not appear in Nemo's context menu, or if you encounter issues:

  • Verify that xclip is installed and functioning correctly.
  • Check that the scripts have the correct permissions and are located in
cd /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/
  • Restart Nemo using
nemo -q

to refresh its configuration.

nemo_copy_folder_content_list's Issues

Installation doesn't work

Just a normal user (non-expert) here. Installation doesn't work for me. There's no folder named $USER in my home folder, but I assume it means my personal folder (I'm the super user). When I gave the installation command, I got the following (sorry, there's some Finnish there):

REPO_URL="https://github.com/ForDefault/nemo_copy_folder_content_list.git" && \ REPO_NAME=$(basename $REPO_URL .git) && \ git clone $REPO_URL && \ cd $REPO_NAME && \ sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y xclip && \ sed -i "s|/home/\$USER|/home/$USER|g" list_documents.nemo_action && \ mv list_documents.sh /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/ && \ mv list_documents.nemo_action /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/ && \ chmod +x /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/list_documents.sh && \ chmod +x /home/$USER/.local/share/nemo/actions/list_documents.nemo_action && \ cd .. && rm -rf $REPO_NAME Cloning into 'nemo_copy_folder_content_list'... remote: Enumerating objects: 66, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (66/66), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (64/64), done. remote: Total 66 (delta 20), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 0 Receiving objects: 100% (66/66), 23.69 KiB | 2.63 MiB/s, done.

There's nothing in my .local/share/nemo/actions/ after giving the command above. Xclip wasn't installed, but installing it didn't help.
