library for tags, and in Nautilus, you can drag and hold Ctrl (I think, don't remember the exact key) and drop files in the folder/tag you want to create hard links. profile, etc.) to mount it in Library on login. library and Library in your home directory. Here's a quick-and-dirty guide though, and see if you can get this working: Right now, I want to add the last few absolutely essential features and make sure things are stable first, along with some more documentation improvements. I certainly will be writing a few guides and tutorials in the documentation as time goes by. If you try it out, I hope you keep using it because it is not *entirely* sure if dantalian will help for your problem and use case, since dantalian is somewhat aimed toward finding subsets of files than specific single files, although that certainly depends on how you use it.

Changes are saved on unmount and loaded on mount. Nodes are made/deleted dynamically in a FUSE mounted library. Better documentation, and setting up a mailing list and a website will follow (0.6 planned).
I've released 0.5 after brief testing making sure things work as advertised (mostly). I'm back from hiatus, after working on various things and self-improvement. Metadata is "stored" in the directory structure.įiles can be moved and/or linked elsewhere without breaking anything.Īlmost no restrictions on tagged files’ names.įUSE mounting allows a dynamic virtual view of the library, with arbitrary logical tag combinations in an arbitrary directory structure. Moving is as simple as rsyncing it over and running dantalian fix. You can interact with them on a basic level with coreutils, e.g. Check the website for up to date info.Īll files (including symlinks to directories) can be tagged indiscriminately. It provides a simple yet useful metaphor for existing directory structures that allows tag-based organization. Dantalian is a set of python scripts which simplifies organizing files on any file system that supports hard links.
