File Organizer

Overview

The File Organizer is a Python script designed to organize files within a specified directory based on their file types. It helps maintain a structured and organized file system by categorizing files into folders according to their extensions.

Features

• Organize Files Script: The organize_files.py script scans the specified directory, categorizes files based on their extensions, and moves them into corresponding folders. It also generates a mapping file (mapping.json) to track the changes.

• Revert Organization Script: The revert_organize_files.py script uses the mapping file to revert the changes made by the organization script, restoring the original file structure.

How to Use

1. Installation:

   • Clone the repository:

     git clone https://github.com/kunal232i/File-Organizer.git

   • Navigate to the project directory:

     cd File-Organizer

2. Organize Files:

   python organize_files.py <directory_path>

   • Replace <directory_path> with the path of the directory you want to organize.

3. Revert Organization:

   python revert_organize_files.py <directory_path>

   • Replace <directory_path> with the path of the directory you want to revert.

Example

Organizing files in the example_directory:

python organize_files.py example_directory

Reverting the organization in the example_directory:

python revert_organize_files.py example_directory

Note

• The mapping of the file structure is stored in mapping.json.
• If files are accidentally organized, the revert script can be used to restore the original structure.
