# ownCloud Photo Organizer
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
ownCloud's Android app does not support automatic year/month subfolder creation
|
||||
during instant upload (unlike Nextcloud). This script compensates by running
|
||||
nightly and sorting all uploaded photos and videos into a `YEAR/YEAR-MM/`
|
||||
folder structure.
|
||||
|
||||
## Script
|
||||
|
||||
**Location on server:** `/usr/local/bin/organize_photos.sh`
|
||||
|
||||
**Source folder watched:**
|
||||
`/mnt/INTEL-SSD/ownCloud - Joe Gitta@cloud.jgitta.com/Personal/InstantUpload`
|
||||
|
||||
**Subfolders processed:** `Camera`, `BlueIris`, `Facebook`, `scans`, `EufyVideoDir`
|
||||
|
||||
**Supported file types:** jpg, jpeg, png, gif, heic, webp, bmp, tiff, mp4, mov, pdf
|
||||
|
||||
## How It Works
|
||||
|
||||
The script reads the date from each filename using these patterns (in order):
|
||||
|
||||
1. `YYYYMMDD` embedded in the filename (e.g. `20231022_082107.jpg`)
|
||||
2. `YYYY-MM-DD` or `YYYY_MM_DD` format
|
||||
3. 13-digit Unix timestamp in milliseconds (e.g. `FB_IMG_1572815868839.jpg`)
|
||||
4. `MM_DD_YYYY` prefix (scans folder format, e.g. `06_11_2026_7_28_16_AM.pdf`)
|
||||
|
||||
Files that don't match any pattern are moved to `_unsorted/` for manual review.
|
||||
|
||||
## Output Structure
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
InstantUpload/
|
||||
└── Camera/
|
||||
├── 2023/
|
||||
│ ├── 2023-06/
|
||||
│ └── 2023-12/
|
||||
├── 2024/
|
||||
│ └── 2024-03/
|
||||
└── _unsorted/
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Cron Job
|
||||
|
||||
Runs nightly at 2:00 AM as root:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
0 2 * * * /usr/local/bin/organize_photos.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To view or edit: `sudo crontab -e`
|
||||
|
||||
## Log File
|
||||
|
||||
Each run appends to `/var/log/organize_photos.log`:
