photosort

A small program written in Golang to copy and sort photos by year and month for a source to a dest folder.

This is my first attempt at the go language. Feel free to improve it through pull requests!

Functionality

• Recursively visits all files and folders in the srcFolder directoy tree
• Analyses if files have Exif date information
• If so it copies the media file to the corresponding folder in the destfolder, creating the necessary folders such as Year and Month
• If the file is a media file but has no information regarding the capture date, it copies the file into a folder called Others in the destination folder
• It ignores any duplicated file or non media files

Media files supported

.tiff .tif .gif .jpeg .jpg .png .raw .webm .mkv .avi .mov .wmv .mp4 .MP4 .m4v .mpg .mp2 .mpeg
