# Media Library Sorter

Application to organise items into libraries.

## Info and Setup

- Uses Tkinter library for GUI.

- Tested on Linux PCs only.

- Install Python3: `sudo apt-get install python3`

- Run program: `python3 media_library_sorter.py`

This program relies on the `libraries` folder contents to save the status of library items.

When run the first time, a directory is created in the same directory as this program called `libraries` that will be used to build and maintain the structure of library names and items. A configuration file under `libraries/libraries.config` is also created to store the structure of created libraries using comma separated values.

For example, if libraries `lib1` and `lib2` are added using the program, the following folders are created: `libraries/lib1`, `libraries/lib2`.

## Known issues

- Program currently can't handle too many library items as widgets will go out of screen

- Responsiveness of GUI needs improvement
