Note: you may need to modify this command to suit your needs like a different exiftool location or wanting to use a different date or directory structure. mnt2/pics/ for me.Īttempt a sort (try a small number of photos first please). Add your existing pictures with good dates to this picture folder.You can set dates by using theĮxiftool “-xmp:datetimeorignal=“YYYY:MM:DD”” DIR_WHERE_PICS_AREĪnd you can always use the -r command to make anything recursive (be careful!) Some people like using filemodifydate, I like using the exif data directly (EXIF:datetimeorignal). Make sure your files have proper dates in whatever field you like.To make your picture directory self-organizing: exiftool SOME_PICTURE and make sure it prints out data. I prefer /opt/exiftool/ for mine.Ĭheck that exiftool is working. Move the folder to wherever you like to install things. This contextually shows the directory’s dropbox status and colors files based on sync status (too cool)

Sudo chmod +x /etc/systemd/system/rvice /etc/init.d/dropbox

( Note rockstor shares are in places like /mnt/books/ and /mnt2/movies/ depending on which user owns them.) You now have a dropbox folder in ~/Dropbox/ that you can symlink other folders. Visit link it gives you to link your dropbox account. Sudo tar xzfv dropbox-linux-x86_64.tar.gz -strip 1 -C /opt/dropbox Got a few things running after trying to implement a few of them as dockers and failing. Thought I’d give something back with some tinkering. Thanks to everyone for helping me on various topics.
