padding v0.2.1

#padding

padding is a tiny node.js module for zero padding

• rename files with zero padding automatically
• zero configuration
• by zero padding, you get files whose name have same length
• you can use this as both cli tool and in your code
• dotfiles (like .DS_Store) are not supported currently

##Example

###files without any prefix

➜  example1 ✗ ls -1
1.jpg
10.jpg
101.jpg
2.jpg
209.jpg
77.jpg

➜  example1 ✗ padding
add padding

➜  example1 ✗ ls -1
001.jpg
002.jpg
010.jpg
077.jpg
101.jpg
209.jpg

• simple exmaple
• In this example, the longest file name is 101.jpg or 209.jpg.
• So padding changes all target files to have same length (7characters).

###files which have common prefix

➜  example2 ✗ ls -1
sample1.jpg
sample10.jpg
sample101.jpg
sample2.jpg
sample209.jpg
sample77.jpg
➜  example2 ✗ padding
add padding
➜  example2 ✗ ls -1
sample001.jpg
sample002.jpg
sample010.jpg
sample077.jpg
sample101.jpg
sample209.jpg

• sample is prefix in this example
• padding works well with prefix
