As I said, it is a command line program.  I run it from a terminal
window, usually on the same virtual desktop as geeqie when geeqie is
running at all.

It may be possible to set it up as one of the helper programs for
geeqie, but I have not done so, and I don't know if geeqie would
immediately notice the change of name and redisplay its lists.

It is written in python using the pyexiv2 library.  Let me know if you
still want it.

Does the script work within geeqie?

Sure, I'd like a copy

I just use:

   jhead -n"%Y%m%d-%H%M%S"

on image files, if they have proper times.  Such as from cameras, etc.

I recently thought of some thinks that was partly available in gqview
but isn't in geeqie and partly new.

- - Rename and copy method that is aware of metafiles (thumbnails,
  metadata, ...)
  We had that in gqview but when I move/rename files in geeqie, I loose
  all metadata. (I usually like to have the metadata in .metadata
  directory.)
  I think about also adding Lua methods for that.
- - Sorting by similarity, that is something new and I don't currently
  have an idea how to do it. I want to have a visible sorting by
  similarity.
  Likewise as before I want to implement some Lua hooks to make it easy
  to implement more sorting ways.
- - Pattern aware Rename as we had in old gqview. That should be more
  powerful to allow using image metadata. As before, with Lua
  integration.
- - Give a better way to use Lua at all on userside. I have no idea about
  how to do it but  it might be needed to encourage users to use it.

Regards
   Klaus

[Geeqie-devel] 2 things I miss from gqview

[Rodney D. Myers]

2 things I miss from gqview

1. the ability to rotate images, and have it write the image as a
correctly identified image file. I get sent multiple images that
worker claims are not valid images. I just rotate left, then back to
get the file header corrected

2. the ability to auto-rename files on the fly. useful for
people/programs name their stuff with simple names

I do most of my basic image file manipulations via command line as well.

Items such as rotating photos according to EXIF information, to renaming the 
file name more accordingly.  Simply and basic tasks should not be made more 
difficult by using graphical interfaces.  These basic tasks can be completed 
far more exponentially faster and among many more files than using a graphical 
interface.

I use the following within a Bash script function for processing my photos 
downloaded from my USB connected camera using GPhoto.

# Change upper to lower case filenames using mv & tr.   


 
printf "Convert upper to lower case file names...\n"


 



 
for photo in ${TMPDIR}/*; do
mv $photo `echo $photo | tr [:upper:] [:lower:]` >>$LOGFILE 2>&1
done

# autorotate images according to the exif-flags
# also set modification time to exif-date/time
# exit codes of jhead: 0=OK, 1=Modified
#jhead -autorot -ft *.JPG >> $ERRORLOG

# 0x0112Orientation   left - bottom -> needs 270 deg rotation
# "top - left" -> is up right, no rotation needed.
## jhead -cmd 'jpegtran -rotate 270 -outfile  ' *.JPG

# auto rotate images in place according to orientation exif data.
# requires: media-libs/jpeg /usr/bin/exifautotran
printf "  auto rotating images\n"
exifautotran $TMPDIR/*.jpg >>$LOGFILE 2>&1

# Set time stamp according to time exif data
# requires: media-gfx/jhead /usr/bin/jhead
printf "  setting file time to image exif time\n"
jhead -ft ${TMPDIR}/*.jpg >>$LOGFILE 2>&1

# jhead returns "1" in case of unsuccessful modification (e.g. rotation)
if [ "$?" -lt "0" ]; then
error "Error in jhead setting timestamp on file, code: $?"
fi
