iPhone: 1) Make a zip file with the desired contents;

2) Run the shortcut and select that zip file;

3) The desired contents now are in the clipboard.


#Script 1: ftz.py

This script is designed to handle and process files in a specific directory. Here’s a step-by-step explanation:

  1. Logging Setup: The script sets up logging to record events and errors in a log file located at /private/var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/5A3A90C0-A077-4A2C-80A6-0DF006769AC6/Documents/script.log.

  2. Extracting Archives: The extract_archive function can extract files from different types of compressed archives like .zip, .tar, .gz, and .bz2. If the archive format is not supported, it logs a warning.

  3. Processing Files: The process_files function goes through all files in a given directory:
    • If it finds a .rar file, it moves it to a special folder called CAT-RAR.
    • For other files, it tries to extract them if they are in a supported archive format.
  4. Moving Files to CAT Folder: The move_to_cat_folder function moves all files and folders (except CAT and CAT-RAR) into a new folder called CAT.

  5. Main Execution: When you run the script, it expects a directory path as an argument. It processes the files in that directory and organizes them into the CAT and CAT-RAR folders.

#Script 2: ftp.py

This script is a simple command-line tool that uses the click library to handle command-line arguments. Here’s what it does:

  1. Command-Line Interface: The script defines a command-line interface using click. It expects a single argument, file_path.

  2. Subprocess Call: When you run the script with a file path, it uses the subprocess module to call an external command files-to-prompt with the provided file path. It captures the output and prints it.

  3. Error Handling: If the external command fails, it catches the error and prints an error message.

#How to Use These Scripts

  1. Running ftz.py:
    • Open a terminal.
    • Run the script with a directory path: python ftz.py /path/to/directory.
    • The script will process the files in the directory, extract archives, move .rar files to CAT-RAR, and move everything else to CAT.
  2. Running ftp.py:
    • Open a terminal.
    • Run the script with a file path: python ftp.py /path/to/file.
    • The script will call the files-to-prompt command with the provided file path and print the result.
