Example

Classify specific file types

Before

Workspace
│   ├── views.py
│   ├── temp.pyc
│   ├── game.java
│   ├── index.html
│   └── script.py

After

Workspace
│   ├── Python Files
│   │   ├── views.py
│   │   ├── temp.pyc
|   |   └── script.py
|   |
|   ├── game.java
|   └── index.html

Example

Classify by Date:

classifier -dt

Example

Classify files of directory ‘/home/source’ and put them in location ‘/home/dest’:

classifier -d /home/source -o /home/dest

Note: If -d (source directory) is given without -o (output) directory, this will classify the files of source directory Eg:
classifier -d /home/source'
This classifies the directory /home/source.

View the CONFIG, how files will be sorted

classifier -t

Edit the CONFIG, to set up manual settings for classification

classifier -et

Reset the CONFIG file

classifier -rst

Useful examples

classifier -st mobi azw3 -sf "Mobibooks"
classifier -st ppt pptx pps -sf "PPt"
classifier -st doc docx -sf "Doc"
classifier -st pdf -sf "Pdf"
classifier -st xls xlsx -sf "XLSx"
