python-scripting

A collection of practical Python scripts for file management, automation, system administration, and other useful tasks.

Overview

This repository contains a wide variety of standalone Python scripts that automate common tasks such as file and directory operations, archiving, logging, disk usage checks, and more. Each script is self-contained with descriptive filenames and in-code documentation.

Sample Scripts

File Management:
- List all files and folders in a directory
- Move files based on type
- Sort files into subfolders by extension
- Count files by extension
- Backup files by copying
- Delete files older than a certain age
Archiving & Compression:
- Archive log files older than 30 days
- Zip and unzip directories
System Operations:
- Check disk usage
- Get system information
- Use Python's logging module
Basic File I/O:
- Read a file line by line into a list
- Write to and reopen files

Usage

Each script is independent. You can run any script using:

python <script-name.py> [arguments]

Refer to the comments at the top of each script for usage instructions and required arguments.

Requirements

Python 3.x
Some scripts require additional modules (e.g., psutil, shutil). Install dependencies as needed.

Contributing

Feel free to submit issues or pull requests to add new scripts or improve existing ones.
