Python program to clean downloads folder and help you delete or move files Explanation of diferent PY files file_manager.py Imports:
import os: Provides a way of using operating system dependent functionality like reading or writing to the file system. import shutil: Allows file operations such as copying and moving files. from collections import defaultdict: Provides a dictionary-like class that defaults missing keys to a default value (in this case, a list). FileManager Class:
class FileManager:: Defines a class named FileManager to encapsulate file management operations. def init(self, download_folder):: Constructor method that initializes the class with a download_folder and a files attribute. self.files = defaultdict(list): Initializes files as a dictionary where each key maps to a list of file paths. scan_files Method:
for root, _, files in os.walk(self.download_folder):: Walks through the directory tree starting at download_folder. for file in files:: Iterates over each file in the current directory. file_path = os.path.join(root, file): Joins the directory path and file name to get the full file path. file_ext = os.path.splitext(file)[1].lower(): Extracts the file extension and converts it to lowercase. self.files[file_ext].append(file_path): Adds the file path to the list for the corresponding file extension. organize_files Method:
for ext, files in self.files.items():: Iterates over each file extension and its corresponding list of files. files.sort(): Sorts the list of files in place. move_file Method:
if not os.path.exists(dest_folder):: Checks if the destination folder exists. os.makedirs(dest_folder): Creates the destination folder if it does not exist. shutil.move(file_path, dest_folder): Moves the file to the destination folder. delete_file Method:
os.remove(file_path): Deletes the specified file.

FileOrganizerApp Class:
class FileOrganizerApp:: Defines a class named FileOrganizerApp to encapsulate the GUI application. def init(self, root):: Constructor method that initializes the class with a root window and calls create_widgets. self.root = root: Sets the root attribute to the passed-in root window. self.file_manager = None: Initializes file_manager to None. self.create_widgets(): Calls the method to create the GUI widgets. create_widgets Method:

folder = filedialog.askdirectory(): Opens a dialog to select a directory. if folder:: Checks if a folder was selected. self.file_manager = FileManager(folder): Initializes file_manager with the selected folder. self.file_manager.scan_files(): Scans files in the selected folder. self.file_manager.organize_files(): Organizes the scanned files. self.populate_listbox(): Populates the listbox with the scanned files. populate_listbox Method:
self.listbox.delete(0, tk.END): Clears the listbox. for ext, files in self.file_manager.files.items():: Iterates over each file extension and its corresponding list of files. for file in files:: Iterates over each file in the list. self.listbox.insert(tk.END, file): Inserts the file path into the listbox. move_file Method:
selected = self.listbox.curselection(): Gets the currently selected file in the listbox. if selected:: Checks if a file is selected. file_path = self.listbox.get(selected): Gets the file path of the selected file. dest_folder = filedialog.askdirectory(): Opens a dialog to select a destination folder. if dest_folder:: Checks if a destination folder was selected. self.file_manager.move_file(file_path, dest_folder): Moves the selected file to the destination folder. self.populate_listbox(): Updates the listbox after moving the file. delete_file Method:
selected = self.listbox.curselection(): Gets the currently selected file in the listbox. if selected:: Checks if a file is selected. file_path = self.listbox.get(selected): Gets the file path of the selected file. confirm = messagebox.askyesno("Delete", "Are you sure you want to delete this file?"): Opens a confirmation dialog. if confirm:: Checks if the user confirmed the deletion. self.file_manager.delete_file(file_path): Deletes the selected file. self.populate_listbox(): Updates the listbox after deleting the file.
