more details on the media folder

[tcurdt]

I just gave the latest version another try.
I've added two documents and I can see them when logging into the docker container:

root@29fc49696c28:/usr/src/paperless/media/documents# find .
.
./archive
./archive/0000002.pdf
./archive/0000001.pdf
./originals
./originals/0000002.pdf
./originals/0000001.pdf
./thumbnails
./thumbnails/0000001.png
./thumbnails/0000002.png

Now I have changed the format to:

PAPERLESS_FILENAME_FORMAT={created_year}/{created}_{correspondent}_{title}_{asn}

but I am unsure if after a restart paperless-ng should re-arrange the media folder? For me it didn't.

It would be kind of nice to also have the SHA/MD5 available as placeholder. That would allow for a content addressable structure.

I am also wondering if there is a way to avoid having two copies. The original AND the archive.
Most of my PDFs are already OCRed PDF/As anyway.

I've now found #749 which answers most of the questions.
