4 Ordnung is a tool to automatically sort, organize and rename your music
5 collection based on their tags like album, artist or title.
9 Right now, Ordnung can only be controlled via the command line. Basic
12 ordnung.py <directory> <pattern>
14 where <directory> is where your collection is stored right now.
15 <pattern> is any path, which contains zero or more field references
16 which are enclosed by percent marks. If, for example, you want to sort
17 all your music located directly in C:\Music (not in any subfolders) by
18 Artist, then Album and have the title as name, you'd use
20 ordnung.py "C:\Music" "C:\Music\%artist%\%album%\%title%"
22 to preview, and, if the displayed result is what you want,
24 ordnung.py -m "C:\Music" "C:\Music\%artist%\%album%\%title%"
26 to actually move and rename the files. Note that the file extension must
27 not be added manually to the pattern.
29 See ordnung.py --help for more options.
