Storage Rules #

Storage rules allow you to define redirection rules when the bot uploads files to storage, so that saved files are automatically organized.

See: #28

Currently supported rule types:

1. FILENAME-REGEX
2. MESSAGE-REGEX
3. IS-ALBUM

Basic syntax for adding rules:

“RuleType RuleContent StorageName Path”

Pay attention to spaces; the bot can only parse correctly formatted syntax. Below is an example of a valid rule command:

/rule add FILENAME-REGEX (?i)\.(mp4|mkv|ts|avi|flv)$ MyAlist /videos

In addition, if CHOSEN is used as the storage name in the rule, it means files will be stored under the path of the storage you selected by clicking the inline button.

Rule types:

FILENAME-REGEX #

Matches based on filename regex. The rule content must be a valid regular expression, such as:

FILENAME-REGEX (?i)\.(mp4|mkv|ts|avi|flv)$ MyAlist /videos

This means files with extensions mp4, mkv, ts, avi, flv will be saved to the /videos directory in the storage named MyAlist (also affected by the base_path in the configuration file).

MESSAGE-REGEX #

Similar to the above, but matches based on the text content of the message itself.

IS-ALBUM #

Matches album messages (media groups). Rule content can only be true or false.

If the path in the rule uses NEW-FOR-ALBUM, the bot will create a new folder for each media group and store all files of that group there. See: https://github.com/krau/SaveAny-Bot/issues/87

For example:

IS-ALBUM true MyWebdav NEW-FOR-ALBUM

This will save media-group messages to the storage named MyWebdav, creating a new folder (generated from the first file) for each album.
