Inspiration
My dad is a very organized person. He meticulously adds suffixes and prefixes to his file names, manually, in the Finder app which is slow and annoying to do. I created renix for people like him, a quick and easy solution to batch rename files in a directory.
What it does & usage instructions
Refer README: https://github.com/carrotfarmer/renix
Install it from crates.io:
cargo install renix
Then get started using
renix --help
Check out the README for example commands or check out the video demo!
How I built it
I built renix using the Rust programming language. I used the clap crate as the argument parser and colored and tabled for the aesthetic stuff.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I'm really proud of building this out in a few hours.
What's next for renix
I plan on adding many more features later on:
- Using regex to rename files
- Change extensions
- Rename directories
- Add numbering as a suffix/prefix eg:
001_filename.txt,002_filename.txt
