Change to the traffic cam script to auto-sort by year/month/day into folders

As the traffic cam keeps taking photos every 5 minutes, the number of files in the archive directory quickly adds up, over the past 2 months there were around 12 thousand files. This was getting a little bit difficult to manage so I decided that it would be a good idea if the script automatically put these into directories sorted by year, month and day.

The change is quite simple, the line where the ARCH_DIR variable is set is changed to this:

ARCH_DIR=$WORK_DIR/wbrsew/`date +"%Y"`/`date +"%m"`/`date +"%d"`

mkdir -p $ARCH_DIR

The whole script looks like this now (I also changed from Wacaw to ImageSnap):

#!/bin/bash

WORK_DIR=/Users/ikromin/Downloads

ARCH_DIR=$WORK_DIR/wbrsew/`date +"%Y"`/`date +"%m"`/`date +"%d"`

mkdir -p $ARCH_DIR

WACAW="/Users/ikromin/Downloads/wacaw-04/wacaw --png -d 2 -n 3 $WORK_DIR/wbrsew_o"

ISNAP="/Users/ikromin/Downloads/ImageSnap-v0.2.5/imagesnap -w 1 $WORK_DIR/wbrsew_o.png"

CONVERT=/usr/local/bin/convert

OPTIM=/Applications/ImageOptim.app/Contents/MacOS/jpegoptim

if [ ! -d "$ARCH_DIR" ]; then

mkdir $ARCH_DIR

#$WACAW

$ISNAP

cp $WORK_DIR/wbrsew_o.jpeg $ARCH_DIR/arch_`date +"%Y%m%d%H%M%S"`.jpeg
