How to keep content and metadata in separate folders?

[tezrilet]

I'm looking to organize all of my scrapes in a certain structure where it's by site, then a subfolder for content and metadata separately, along with the archive file. Is there a way to do this? Here's what I'm trying to do, using Danbooru as an example:

danbooru.donmai.us > content
                      > {filename}.{extension}
                   > metadata
                      > {id}_{filename}.json
				   > archive.sqlite3

I have this config, which mostly works:

{
	"extractor": {
		"danbooru": {
			"archive": ["danbooru.donmai.us", "archive.sqlite3"],
			"directory": ["danbooru.donmai.us", "content"],
			"filename": "{filename}.{extension}",
			"metadata": true,
			"postprocessors": [{
				"directory": ["metadata"],
				"name": "metadata",
				"event": "post",
				"filename": "{id}_{filename}.json",
				"indent": "\t"
			}]
		}
	}
}

Unfortunately, it places the metadata inside of the content folder. I also tried using .. to go up a directory, but it doesn't seem to be supported:

"directory": ["..", "metadata"],

I've tried various things, but no luck, including using an object for extractor.*.filename since it doesn't support directories the same way extractor.*.directory does. Side note, extractor.*.archive seems to ignore both extractor.*.base-directory and extractor.*.directory, so I have to define it manually for each site. It's a little annoying, but the config I have now does what I want for that, so it's not a huge deal.

v1.27.3 has a base-directory option for metadata post processors. (605f6fb)

I also tried using .. to go up a directory, but it doesn't seem to be supported:

There's a bug with using .. on Windows: #5942

Perfect! If only I had looked again at the post-processor options documentation, but that works plenty well. Thanks for answering, and more importantly for this awesome tool. Here's the new config, for reference:

{
	"extractor": {
		"danbooru": {
			"archive": ["danbooru.donmai.us", "archive.sqlite3"],
			"base-directory": ["danbooru.donmai.us"],
			"directory": ["content"],
			"filename": "{filename}.{extension}",
			"metadata": true,
			"postprocessors": [{
				"base-directory": ["danbooru.donmai.us", "metadata"],
				"name": "metadata",
				"event": "post",
				"filename": "{id}_{filename}.json",
				"indent": "\t"
			}]
		}
	}
}
