NAS Cleanup & Intelligence

Concept

Rust CLI for managing large-scale Synology NAS file systems. Performs duplicate detection (bit-for-bit and fuzzy), astrophotography file optimization (ASIair workflow cleanup), conventional RAW/sidecar management, and intelligent organization. Designed for Docker or native execution on DSM to minimize network latency during scanning.

Architecture

Scanner: parallel directory traversal using jwalk with rayon thread pool
Hasher: BLAKE3 content hashing for fast duplicate identification
Deduplicator: identifies exact and fuzzy duplicates across large file trees
Cleaner: workflow-specific rules for astrophotography (ASIair) and photography (RAW/sidecar pairing)
TUI: ratatui terminal interface for reviewing and acting on findings

Goal

Develop a high-performance Rust application to manage large-scale Synology NAS file systems, focusing on duplicate detection, astrophotography optimization, conventional RAW photography management, and intelligent organization.

Key Components

Scanner: Parallel directory walker utilizing jwalk or rayon.
Hasher: blake3 based content hashing.
Deduplicator: Logic to identify bit-for-bit and fuzzy duplicates.
Cleaner: Workflow-specific cleanup rules (e.g., ASIair/Astrophotography and Conventional RAW/Sidecar management).
TUI: Terminal interface for reviewing and acting on findings.

Tech Stack

Rust: tokio, rayon, blake3, jwalk, ignore, clap (CLI), ratatui (TUI).
DSM Integration: syno-api (if available/needed), BTRFS ioctls.
