I actually need to standardize my code. I've got "learning F2" as something I want to do soon. The goal: use the exif data of my pictures to create
[date in ISO 8601] - [original filename].[original file type termination]So a picture taken the third of march 2022 titled "asdf.jpg" would become "2022-3-3 - asdf.jpg"
Help? lol
Can you give more context, what are you using? Language / system / etc?
I'm using NixOS. Ext4 filesystem. As to language, I'm not entirely sure what you mean. If you refer to the character set in the filenames, I think there are no characters that deviate from the English alphabet, numbers, dashes, and underscores.
Oh ok so you’re more so working with folder structure etc, so bash for when you plug-in a card?
I’m thinking in more programmatic terms, there’s definitely some bash scripting you can execute. Or just go balls out and write a service that executes on systemctl
