CMD Resolution Sorter

[beesagtig]

Hey

I'm trying to make a simple batch program to sort background's into folders depending on their resolution and want to know how do you get the batch to check the resolution?

Thanks

A batch can't check resolutions. I think the only way you could achieve that with a batch is to have a program rename all the files placing the resolution in the name (e.g. file.jpg -> 01200x00768-file.jpg).

It wouldn't be too hard to create a small app that does this for you.

ok thanks

what should I use to change the names?

Use 3rd party tools to read file details like resolutions.

It's possible that IrfanView could do what you are looking for, I certainly know it can batch process images for resizing etc so maybe copy/move is an option also.

What kind of files are these (JPG, PNG, etc.)? I could make something to do what you are asking but it probably wouldn't be available until Monday at the earliest.

 

[beesagtig]

really? that would be awesome. They are mostly jpegs.

What specific criteria do you want me to implement? Like...

if height < 100 and width < 200 move to "small" folder
if height > 4000 and width > 6000 move to "large" folder

...or, I could just make one folder per resolution.

one folder per resolution would be great thanks

Just extract it to the directory you want to sort and run it. It will create one directory per resolution and copy files to them (read: not move so the originals will still be there). The folders will be named 00000x00000 (width x height). Requires .NET 3.5 to run.

The source, if anyone cares for it...

            if (args.Length == 0)
                dir = Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase).Substring(6);
            if (args.Length == 1)
                dir = args[0];

            if (Directory.Exists(dir))
            {
                string[] types = new string[] { "*.jpg", "*.png", "*.bmp" };
                for (int i = 0; i < types.Length; i++)
                {
                    string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(dir, types[i]);
                    foreach (string file in files)
                    {
                        FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(file);
                        Image img = Image.FromFile(fi.FullName);
                        string newdir = dir + "\\" + img.Width.ToString().PadLeft(5, '0') + "x" + img.Height.ToString().PadLeft(5, '0');
                        Directory.CreateDirectory(newdir);
                        File.Copy(fi.FullName, newdir + "\\" + fi.Name, true);
                    }
                }
            }
            else
                Console.WriteLine("PicSort [directory to sort]");
        }
    }
