Sometimes you work on project that contains big modules like "News & Media" and it contains many Media Files,
 
organizing Items easy using Buckets, but what about the Media files?!

In this Blog Post I will provide you with a script that help you to generate media folders from 0-9 & a-z
i.e.

Dependencies:

Sitecore powerShell

The Script:

The below script will help you generate Alpha Numeric Folders and move the files under those folders

   
    $alphaNumeric=@()
    65..90|foreach-object{$alphaNumeric+=[char]$_}  # Add the characters A-Z to the Array    
    48..57|foreach-object{$alphaNumeric+=[char]$_} # Add the characters 0-9 to the Array
    
    # The folder in which you want to organize the media
    $root = "master:/sitecore/media library/{your path}"

    # Generate folders based on the alpha numeric array
    foreach ($item in $alphaNumeric) {
        # Skip if the folder already exists
        if (@(Get-Item -Path "master:" -Query $root"/"$item).count -gt 0) {
            Continue
        # Create new item
        } else {
            New-Item -Path $root"/"$item -ItemType "/sitecore/templates/System/Media/Media folder"
        }
    }
    
    
    # Get all items under the root folder
    $mediaItems= Get-ChildItem -Path $root
    
    # move images to the correct folder based on first character of the media Item name
    foreach($item in $mediaItems){
        # Check if the item is not media folder
        if($item.TemplateId -ne "{FE5DD826-48C6-436D-B87A-7C4210C7413B}"){ 
            $fChar= $item.Name[0]
            $newItemPath=$root+"/"+$fChar+"/"+$item.Name
            # Check if the Item already exists in the path
            if (Test-Path -Path $newItemPath){
                Continue
            }
                Move-Item -Path $item.FullPath -Destination $root"/"$fChar
        }
    }
