utility-scripts

A set of small utility scripts for my personal usage.

Quick Start

Just clone it and run npm i to get started!

Delete duplicates from folders

Delete recursively all files contained in folder B that have the same names as one of the files in folder A. Set the path for the folders in a .env file:

FOLDER_A=foo/bar
FOLDER_B=bar/foo

Run the script in the terminal with the npm run delete-duplicates command. You will be prompted for confirmation before the script deletes anything. If you want to ignore some filenames, add them inside the variable filesToIgnore in delete-duplicates-from-folders.mjs.

Move Markdown files by tag

Move markdown files from a folder A to a folder B, only if they have the tag TAG_TARGET that you defined in the environmental variables. Set the env variables in a .env file:

FOLDER_A=foo/inbox
FOLDER_B=bar/dev-articles
TAG_TARGET=dev-article

Run the script in the terminal with the npm run move-md-files command. You will be prompted for confirmation before the script moves anything.
