Thank you. I'll try it out.

I did manage to find few interesting tags from exif information - just by comparing tag information between three images shot by camera for hdr vs single image. It looks promising for one of my camera. Did not get enough time yet to investigate if same concept can be applied to other camera.

Now debating over Java vs (bash) shell script to get exif info and collect the potential images I'm interested in.

To use the lua scripts do the following

Open a terminal then:

cd .config/darktable
git clone https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts lua
ln -s lua/tools/script_manager.lua luarc

start darktable
a module will be present at the lower left called script manager.  Open it, select the scripts you want to run and enable them, and enjoy

There is more information at https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts/readme.md

    Greetings,

    On darktable version 2.6.2, Ubuntu 18.04.


    I know how to generate HDR images in darktable, basically select
    images
    from lighttable and under selected images menu, click on create HDR.
    This works.


    However it's getting tedious for doing many images and getting error
    prone. So, I'm exploring batch options. Anyone has any ideas? I'm
    comfortable writing shell scripts or Java code if needed. I have not
    explored darkable/Lua combination yet.


    For batch mode I see I have to do following

    Figure out images which can be grouped together for HDR. I don't
    know if
    cameras write any special tag in raw file that might help. If not,
    only
    option seems to be check tags like time stamp, focal length and such
    that will remain same. For my purposes, these fields most likely
    will do
    the job and get me the names of the file unless I find a better
    way to
    identify the images.


    Once I have managed to find the group, next task is convince
    darktable/lua to create HDR from the selected images. This is
    where I am
    stuck. Quick search revealed
    https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts which has few promising
    leads e.g. enfuse. I'm not clear how to use it.


    Looking for any pointers/help.


    Thanks in advance,


    Niranjan
