Commands to organize downloaded mp3 files of spotdl (spotify downloader python package)

spotdl-organizer.md

I don not recommending using it as bash script.

Commands:

1. Store artist names to multi line text variable.

export list="$(ls *.mp3 | awk '{split($0,a," - "); print a[1]}' | uniq)"

2. Check if names correct.

echo $list

3. Create named directories from artist names variables.

echo "$list" | while IFS= read -r line ; do mkdir "$line"; done

4. Move all mp3 files to their corresponding directories.

echo "$list" | while IFS= read -r line ; do mv $line*.mp3 $line/; done
