Simple Commons Uploader
positional arguments:
folders folders with files to upload
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-u username username to use
The Simple Commons Uploader works with your normal password and BotPasswords.
👉 Password is set via env variable <USERNAME>_PW, such that <USERNAME> is the username of the bot in all caps.
The Simple Commons Uploader only uploads files in these file formats. Any other file types will be skippied.
Uploaded files will be named based on local folder name. For example, if your folder is called Fancy pigeons, contains jpgs of fancy pigeons, and today's date is 2018-01-01, then the resulting files will be named File:Fancy pigeons 1 2018-01-01.jpg, File:Fancy pigeons 2 2018-01-01.jpg, File:Fancy pigeons 3 2018-01-01.jpg, etc.
Uploaded files will be categorized using the same name as the containing folder on your computer. To use a different category, add an _ character to the end of the folder name, followed by the category (without the Category prefix) you would like to add. For example, a folder with name Fancy pigeons _ Gray birds will cause scu to upload the files with a base name of Fancy pigeons and categorize them in Category:Gray birds.
