Running folderize.rb after configuration will automatically set up the initial structure, creating folders for defined prefixes and syncing matching notes. Thus, if I had a note called ‘xxx Ideas for nvALT.md’, it would be synced with the file ~/Dropbox/Notes/nvALT/Ideas/Ideas for nvALT.md based on the above configuration. The prefixes, such as ‘xxx’ above, denote the first word/characters of a note title that will be filed into folders. The configuration file ( ~/.folderize) looks like this: Only notes with defined prefix/folder pairs will be synced. Most importantly, it lets you define the prefix-to-folder-name conversion, allowing you to sync notes with simple title prefixes into more intuitively-named container folders. The file contains paths for your “flat” folder, and the root folder for your nested hierarchy.

Configurationįolderize works off a configuration file that’s written to your Mac user’s home folder the first time it’s run. Run it once, and then edit ~/.folderize to define your configuration. A sample configuration file is generated at this location the first time you run folderize.rb. Make it executable with chmod a+x /path/to/folderize.rb. To use Folderize, save this script as folderize.rb to disk (you can right click the link and Save). I make no guarantees and take no responsibility for lost data. Installationįirst, back up the files in your main folder.
It serves as a system for creating a structure that’s easier to navigate in iOS note apps, or for separating notes that might be compiled into different books or projects. This script is designed for people who want to sync a flat folder of notes (a la nvALT) to a more organized system of nested folders.
