Hi Chris,
for thumbnail creation: darktable-generate-cache
e.g.: https://darktable.gitlab.io/doc/de/overview_chapter.html#darktable_generate_cache_commandline_parameters
for me -m 5 is a good setting.
For import: I use the GUI.
BR, Micha.

Betreff: [darktable-user] Mass import files
Hi,
is there a way to mass import files into darktable's library from the
command line?
I have a directory hierarchy with lots of pictures and I want the
thumbnails created en masse once so that I don't have to wait while
opening one of the folders.
Selecting each folder from the UI and waiting for the thumbnails to be
created, then importing the next one, wait again, and so on is rather
time consuming. So I'd rather do it in the background and do something
else while that job is running.
Cheers,
Chris
