Folder Trimmer is a tool designed to help clean up unnecessary files from folders, specifically targeting KiCad files for now. Useful for saving space from autogenerated clutter and preparing projects for distribution.
Trimming KiCad Files: The script removes specific unwanted files from a KiCad project folder based on predefined patterns. Copying Files: It copies files from the target folder to a new folder called "trim," excluding files that match the trim patterns.
- Clone the Repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/folder-trimmer.git
cd folder-trimmer
- Run the Script
python folder_trimmer.py
You will be prompted to enter the path to the target folder. The script will then process this folder, copying files to a "trim" folder and removing any files that match the trim patterns.
- GUI Development: Adding a graphical user interface to make the tool more user-friendly.
- Support for Other Formats: Extending functionality to handle different types of files and formats, such as Matlab/Simulink and Altium.
