Python Automation Projects: Automatic desktop cleanup (Part 1)

Would there be a reason why it is taking the kernel forever to run?

> windows CMD
md "new pdf folder"
move *.pdf "new pdf folder"

Right click use Stacks lol

OMG love it love it so much

Perhaps I’ve treated you too harshly

Пытаюсь что-то понять будучи русским… // I'm trying to understand something when I'm Russian…

You inspire me to code bro
Great Video!

very useful! thank u

I made this in under an hour with 10 lines. If anyone wants the code for it, just ask and I'll give you the github link

what did you use IDE to preform that??

in pycharm what plugins names is that

Coders: Those that code
Codees: Those that….are being coded??

Am I allowed to take this concept and change it to do something similar and upload it to github?

Here is C# (.Net Core) version https://youtu.be/0e_oliJMlhs

I worked on commercial software for this but it's not yet complete. Would you b interested in buying it when ready or for featuring it on your site?

is that visual studio u're using? 🙂

Wallpaper?

Grymt!

Will it work of I copy 1gb file size to desktop?will this code wait till the time file is completely copied on desktop and then move to the desired folder or will it throw error

Without a mouse, you must have some real patients 😀 !

Anyone else getting this error?:
UserWarning: Failed to import fsevents. Fall back to kqueue
warnings.warn("Failed to import fsevents. Fall back to kqueue")

Have not figured out how to fix it?

What for an Programm are u using for making notes?

Checked the code and tbh it's a bit messy. Your method does too many things. Your file extension object is super repetitive and doesn't follow the dry paradigm. Maybe Powershell would be better tool for this job also. But nice video still.

Great project, but one thing popped into my mind… I usually use the desktop as the desktop should be used, just as a regular physical desktop, so the project im currently working on is active on the desktop, would be a great addition to check out the handling of actual folders that are added, do they just get populated?

Or even run it as a chron job, so it wouldn't trigger instantly or even ask you if you would want to move the folder/file right away, incase you would like to keep the file on the desktop until your done working on it…

Again, great project, just spitting out some thoughts and ideas, really like your style of content and your voice is soothing! hehe! keep it up! im gonna go for this project and build it along!

Best wishes!

Like for the sock on the mic 😂 I've been doing that trick too

PS: Great video too!

how do you improve the oop concept ?? I use a lot of if and for loops, and makes my code look amateur..What can I do??

One tip for renaming files (This is actually what i do most of the time when handling uploads or moving files)

Use sha1 hash algorithm -> sha1(currentFileName + unixTimeStamp) + '.' + extension
this will ensure that the files names will be always unique, yes the files names will not make sense but you will speed up process, because when you check if the file exists you are contacting OS do to this check and it is slower process than the calculation of the hash
If you think hash collisions will happen then you can use sha256 instead of sha1, this method is especially helpful if you do file uploads on the web
most of the time you will save file to the hard drive and add its file path to the database and if user makes file name too large your app might crash or database error (depends on DBMS, might save it partially or throw an error), this method will ensure what ever the size of the file name is, it will always be 256 bits(64 characters) in length plus the extension and you will not lose space in your database

Eagerly waiting for your video about building an app from scratch… 👍

damn. I get so motivated to code every time I watch your videos. Keep up the good work!

Where can we get the source codes ..

Like the way you do your videos you really show how it takes to complete a task ..you Google a bit.. debug..copy and paste ..unlike other you tubers who don't show us the whole development cycle

Thanks for the tutorials all your videos are great
This is my classroom now

Great vid, But it will be bettre, if u maximise your VS code screen, What is word at last, in the 18th line.

where you download your wallpaper? please

Wait how do you balance your coding life and bulking life !!😂

Doing practical things, totally love it!

8:35. Look at the terminal window behind the finder window (folder called kalle) and comment what u see.

Hi Kalle, Not sure why the audio is a bit low for this video. Would love to see the audio improve in your next video.

Great video! One question: did you consider using the folders that the OS already has? Like “Documents”, “Images” and so on.

Have You ever written tests in python ? You can show how your automation components will be tested.

Thanks sir🙏

Good to see you. The title is itself exciting enough for me not to sleep……
