Bug ID: 427403
Summary: Export multiple albums - Exported folder structure
shall represent album structure
Product: digikam
Version: unspecified
Platform: Appimage
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Plugin-WebService-FileTransfer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Feature request: If pictures of multiple albums are exported, album structure
shall be recreated in "Target Location" via folders (Would be nice to have a
checkmark in export dialog like "Preserve Album Structure").
EXAMPLE:
Album Structure:
A
|-B
| |-ab1.jpg
| |-ab2.jpg
| |-ab3.jpg
|-D
|-ad1.jpg
|-ad2.jpg
C
|-c1.jpg
Target Location: (/tmp/test)
/tmp/test
|-A
| |-B
| | |-ab1.jpg
| | |-ab2.jpg
| | |-ab3.jpg
| |-D
| | |-ad1.jpg
| | |-ad2.jpg
|-C
|-c1.jpg
WORKFLOW REASON:
I administrate all my pictures via digikam on a Linux Machine. To carry these
pictures around on tablets/smart phones/etc, I want to create a reduce quality
copy, which is organized the same way. This allows to find a picture on smart
phone in the already well known Album/Folder structure.
MY WORKAROUND
At the moment I trigger imagemagick from a script, which traverses the picture
folders. But it's a hassle to write around not using pictures, which have an
improved version available. Plus some of my content is in dngs. These I export
currently all into dngexport directory. The script if it encounters a dng to
export, will lookup the picture in the dngexport directory and copy it from
there.
It works, but it feels, like there should be an easier way.
