Nushell File Count by Year

Diffent ways in Nushell to get File Count by Year

I had a need to get a count of files in one of my folders by Year the file was saved.

Using a few lines in Nushell I came up with a way to do this, and with help from the Nushell Discord channel, we came up with a few more.

Using RG and PDF files

RG and PDF files

To seach inside pdf files, use rga

RGA

If you want to search inside PDFs (and many other file types like Office documents, archives, e-books, etc.), you can use ripgrep-all (rga), which is a wrapper around ripgrep that adds support for these formats.

rga is available for Windows and can be installed using package managers like Chocolatey or Scoop.
