## Project history and usage

nomino is a Rust batch-renaming CLI aimed at developers. Its README calls it a batch rename utility for developers and documents prebuilt Linux, macOS, and Windows binaries as well as `cargo install nomino`.

### Project history

The GitHub repository was created on 2020-04-17. The author announced it on the Rust users forum the same day as a Rust batch rename utility, initially framed partly as a working example around async Rust before later edits toned down that angle.

The tool continued as a small, maintained utility through the 1.x series. GitHub release metadata shows v1.6.4 published on 2025-08-07, and the wiki examples page was edited on 2025-01-19.

### Adoption history

Adoption is niche but healthy for a filesystem utility: it is distributed through Homebrew, MacPorts, Nix, Scoop, zypper, prebuilt GitHub release assets, and Cargo. Its GitHub repository had hundreds of stars by 2026-07-01, enough to make it visible among Rust CLI file-renaming tools without becoming a default Unix utility.

### How it is used

nomino users pass regex-like match patterns and replacement templates to preview and perform bulk renames. The wiki demonstrates numbered captures, named captures, sorted renaming, JSON map-driven renames, undo maps generated with `-g`, and recursive/subdirectory-aware renames that can create new directory structures.

The practical niche is bulk cleanup of developer and media filenames where plain `mv` loops are too risky and GUI rename tools are inconvenient. It is especially package-manager-friendly because it is a single Rust executable with no runtime service.

### Why package nerds care

nomino is a representative modern Rust CLI utility: cross-platform release assets, Cargo installation, distro/package-manager recipes, and a focused filesystem task. Its undo-map workflow is the important packaging detail because bulk rename tools need a low-friction recovery path to be acceptable in real use.

### Timeline

- 2025-01-19: examples wiki page edited.
- 2025-08-07: v1.6.4 release published.
