make-room

make-room is a command-line tool that helps you save space by converting your pictures and videos to more space-efficient formats. It can convert:

• Videos to h265
• JPEG images to AVIF

Installation

1. Clone this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/make-room.git
   cd make-room

2. Create and activate a virtual environment:

   python -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate

3. Install the required dependencies:

   pip install -e ".[test,dev]"

Usage

To use make-room, simply run the make-room command with the path to the directory or file you want to convert:

make-room /path/to/your/media

By default, make-room will recursively search for videos and JPEG images in the specified directory and convert them. You can customize the behavior of the tool with the following options:

• --dry-run: List the files that would be converted without actually performing the conversion.
• --no-recursive: Only process files in the specified directory, not in subdirectories.
• --target-data-size: Set a limit on the total amount of data to process, in bytes. The default is 3GB.

Examples

• Convert all media in a directory and its subdirectories:

  make-room /path/to/your/media

• Do a dry run to see what would be converted:

  make-room --dry-run /path/to/your/media

• Convert only the files in the current directory:

  make-room --no-recursive .

• Convert up to 1GB of media:

  make-room --target-data-size 1000000000 /path/to/your/media
