sortQL: A better way to organize your files

sortQL is a simple, yet powerful, file management automation tool that offers a rich toolset of rule-based operations using a declarative SQL-like syntax. It's designed to help you automate workflows, such as moving, copying, deleting, and archiving files, based on predefined conditons.

Features include:

  • Simple Installation: Install globally and run from any directory using npx.
  • Declarative Syntax: Define complex file and folder operations in a simple, readable .SQL file.
  • Watch Mode: Automatically re-run the queries whenever a file or folder is added, removed, or modified.
  • Cross-Platform: Works seamlessly across different operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux.
  • Open-Source: Fully open-source codebase, allowing you to contribute and modify the source code.
