image-orientation-sorter

Quickly sort images into directories by orientation: tall, wide, and square.

Supported filetypes:

• jpg
• png
• gif
• webp
• ico
• tiff
• bmp

This small tool's first release includes only the basic functionality: move images to direcotires named after their orientations.

Example

Move images

Move images to 'tall', 'wide', and 'square' directories. Use --overwrite if these directories exist, and you want files with the same name to overwrite files in destination directories instread of appending a number to the name.

$ tree /path/to/images
/path/to/images
├── foo
│   └── square.jpg
├── portrait.jpg
└── landscape.jpg

$ imgorisort -r /path/to/images
Processed 3 files successfully.

$ tree /path/to/images
/path/to/images
├── foo
├── wide
│   └── landscape.jpg
├── tall
│   └── portrait.jpg
└── sqr
    └── square.jpg

Rename images

Rename images, adding 'tall', 'square', or 'wide' to the beginning of the filename.

Using --rename will not move images to new directories, in contrast to the above example.

$ tree /path/to/images
/path/to/images
├── foo
│   └── square.jpg
├── portrait.jpg
└── landscape.jpg

$ imgorisort -r --rename /path/to/images
Processed 3 files successfully.

$ tree /path/to/images
/path/to/images
├── foo
│   └── sqr_square.jpg
├── tall_portrait.jpg
└── wide_landscape.jpg
