Bug ID: 513819
Summary: Scripting plugin does not work at all in Windows as no
environmental variables populated with filenames
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version First 8.8.0
Reported In:
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: BatchQueueManager-Plugins
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The scripting plugin is not populating the environmental variables INPUT or
OUTPUT which contain the names of the file to be processed and output. This
makes it impossible to use the shell plugin in Windows which is a key feature
of DigiKam enabling workflow.
The plugin IS invoking the command line interpreter, it is also passing SOME
environmental variables, but NOT the filenames.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Digikam
2. Open Batch queue manager
3. Open any picture file
4. Add an assigned tool of 'User Shell Script' to the list of assigned tools
5. Add the line 'set > C:\temp\env_variables.txt' to the list of commands for
the batch file to run.
6. Press the Run button to execute the script
7. The script will report a failure, that's expected as you haven't done
anything.
OBSERVED RESULT
1. The C:\temp\env_variables.txt lists all environmental variables available to
the CMD interpreter when the script was run. It does NOT contain the INPUT or
OUTPUT filenames anywhere but the following are listed which appear to be
populated (the rating on the picture was 4 stars so this is correct, I didn't
test the others):
COLORLABEL=0
COMMENTS=
PICKLABEL=0
RATING=4
TAGSPATH=
TITLE=
EXPECTED RESULT
The INPUT and OUTPUT environmental variables - (or any others that the
programming team want to use to put filenames in) are populated and present so
that they can be processed by scripts and this feature can be used in Windows.
I have not tested on Linux, though I have it installed as well on that
platform, as I want to do the batch processing in Windows in this instance.
