tag-util

AboutThis is an attempt to create handy shell utility for tagging files. It aims at being useful and comfortable while used in composition with other tools. All tags (also known as labels) are kept in sqlite database in user's home directory, separate from files' content; it is possible to ... [More] tag any type of file. One can treat it as analogous to selection utility in spatial file managers with few major differences: selections don't disappear when directory is being changed (only when they are ordered to do so) and every selection can span multiple locations in whole file system. Interestingly while working with two xterm instances side by side it can be treated as a selection tool in mc (or other Norton Commander clone) but much more powerful. Usage examplesTag files slides.pdf and summary.txt with math: $ tag -t math slides.pdf summary.txtSame as above but not using -t argument: $ tag math slides.pdf summary.txtRemove math tag, and add physics tag to slides.pdf file: $ tag -d math -t physics slides.pdfMove files tagged with music to directory Desktop/Music while preserving tags associations: $ tag -m music Desktop/MusicDeletes all associations with tag stuff (deleting this tag): $ tag -D stuffPasses all file paths tagged with stuff to ls -lda command: $ ls -lda `tag -l stuff`Comfortable way to pass all files tagged with metal and rock to xmms -e command: $ tagexec metal,rock xmms -eSame as above but using directly tag and xargs commands (not using tagexec): $ tag -L metal,rock | xargs -0 xmms -eInstallationKeep in mind that, though usable, project is very fresh and may be very buggy. $ svn checkout http://tag-util.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ tag-util $ cd tag-util $ python setup.py installIt is advisable to enable optional completion script for bash by passing --with-bash-complete argument to setup.py installation script. Default path for this script is /etc/bash_completion.d directory - one can change this path with --with-bash-complete=/path. [Less]

tagfsimpl

This software exposes the Windows Desktop Search catalogue in a network share which you can map to a network drive. TagFS implements a layer over WDS that allows you to tag your files. Among the planned features include maintaining trees so software can run unmodified from the network share. ... [More] Another planned feature is an explorer context menu item that pushes tag changes into WDS for a file. Whwn this share is mapped, you can finally browse files by tag in Windows XP in a natural way. Self-updating and never needing an index beyond WDS's, this will be the way to manage files in Windows XP. Another nice feature to be implemented deals with audio files: audio tags are automatically read and a tree built up in many different ways such as by Artist then Album or by Genre then Artist and finally Album, etc, etc. [Less]

pkms

PKMS is a tool in which one can collect and structure information. It does this by giving users a document editor with wiki syntax and by adding tags to these documents. Later on, these documents are to be extended with all sorts of information (images, videos, files).

py-meta-monkey

py-meta-monkey is still in early development, but it is already very useable. It began as a way to store and edit keywords, comments and ratings for my photos when I finally gave up on iPhoto, but it can be used on any file type. It integrates with QuickLook and the Finder to easily select, view and ... [More] edit multiple files. How it worksAttributes are stored in the filesystem with the xattr library, in the namespace "user.tk.gfxmonk.MetaMonkey". Upon editing, the keywords, rating and comment for a file are saved to the "Spotlight Comments" field, which allows spotlight indexing. Note: this process will remove any existing spotlight comments DependenciesRequires the python xattr library. You should be able to get this by simply running: sudo easy_install xattrThe other requirements (python, pyobjc, the scripting bridge, etc) are all shipped with leopard. In theory it should work on earlier versions (without the QuickLook functionality), but you'll have to sort out the dependencies yourself. HackingIf you want to edit the program, jump right in. The main code you'll need to concern yourself with is inside the src folder - the rest is just template code for the pyobjc bridge. [Less]

cxtags

REQUIRES THE CODEIGNITER FRAMEWORK This class allows any table, and any type of system, to add, edit, and delete tags from any object/row without interfering with other tables that are also using tags. For example, say you have 58 articles on your blog and each have 2-4 tags attached to them. ... [More] Now you add a "Image Gallery" to your site to showoff your photos. You want to "tag" each photo with some key words (city, dark, night) that will help people sort through all the images. With this class both your blog articles and your images (and any other tables you add) can use the same "tags" table without interfering with each other. Just because blog article 23 has the tag "sports" doesn't mean that image 23 will return the tag "sports". About the variables this class uses: (the fictitious tables "posts" and "images" used for examples) TABLE The name of a table using tags (i.e. "posts", "images", etc..) this allows us to tell the difference between a tag for row 23 of the "images" table and row 23 of the "posts" table. ROW_ID The row_id is the unique ID of a row from the table set in TABLE. This id corasponds to a some row like "row 23" of the "posts" table. USER_ID The ID of the user that created the tag. (for use with a "users" table) This means that multiple users can each tag a TABLE row with their own tags. This is optional so if you don't plan on starting another social site you don't even need to use this variable. SAFE_TAG This is a URL/file/etc. safe version of the TAG. (only a-z0-9_) TAG A cleaned (alphanumeric and spaces) catialized tag (only for display) TAG_ID The Unique Id of the tag DATE The date the tag was attached to a row Note: the bottom of the CXTags Model has the SQL for the tables you will need to add to your DB. UPDATE As of March 29, 2009 the SVN repo is now behind the actual releases of CXTags. The new version 2.0 can be downloaded from the downloads section. [Less]
