[feature request] nested exports

[mtettke123]

Hi,

trying to understand the export command and having a discussion here, this is to write down how I wish exports would be possible. My objective is to generate a (nested) directory structure, that is easy to sync and can be accessed without docspell, something like

"{correspondent}/{document_type}/{created_year}-{created_month}-{created_day} {title}"

1. For this, there should be an export mode like with-structure="{correspondent}/{category:document-type}/..." where you can specify how exactly documents are exported using the placeholders like in searches.
2. As I don't need the metadata (DB is backuped anyway), an option --without-metadata would also be helpfull to don't export data I don't need here.
3. An option like --no-subdir-on-single-file (or maybe --flat or --direct-link-on-single-file?) could link entities, that have only one PDF attached (>90% in my use case) directly.
4. As far as I understand the documentation, only the original files, not the processed PDF/A-files are exported. A switch to change this behaviour would be great.

Just ideas and wishes here.

Thank you - this all makes sense and would be a nice addition! All points can be addressed individually, if someone likes to pickup some of them, would be great! Note that this concerns the dsc command line utility, which is written in Rust.

Hey! I created single issues in the docspell/dsc repository, so I'm closing this one. Thanks again for your input!
