filemanip

An NPM CLI that allows file manipulation. A lot of commands require ffmpeg to be pre-installed.

This is a very random, quick n' dirty (no unit tests) list of commands that I use to help friends and family organize media files. Any other use would be plesant but not anticipated.

Requirements

• Node
• ffmpeg

Installation

To install simply run

npm install -g filemanip

Usage

To use filmanip cd into a directory of files you want manipulated and run filemanip command where 'command' is one of the commands below.

Commands

• convert mp3 -- converts files into mp3 files
  • convert mp3 -r -- converts files into mp3 files recursively using subfolders
• copy random /x/ /dir/ -- copies x number of files randomly with no repeating from a dir of your choice
  • copy random /x/ /dir/ -music -- copies x number of music files randomly with no repeating from a dir of your choice
• split mp3 -- splits files into mp3 files into 30 min chunks
• combine mp3 -- combines multipe mp3 files into one mp3 file
• meta randomplay -- prepends x_ in random order to filename and title, where 'x' is descending numbers
  • meta randomplay /x/ -- prepends x_ in random order to filename and title, where 'x' is descending numbers and a passed x is how much the numbers increment by
• meta addtracknumbers -- adds track numbers to files
• speed /speed/ -- speeds up the files by the optional amount of speed (defaults is 1.2)
