Hi Dethe,
Thanks for the example scripts! They work great if the comments only contain
ascii characters, but I found I had to make a small modification to make it work
with the captions in my database:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
import plistlib, os
outputcodec = "latin-1" # or "utf-8", or "ascii", or ....
library = plistlib.readPlist(
os.path.expanduser('~/Pictures/iPhoto Library/AlbumData.xml'))
for photo in library['Master Image List'].values():
if hasattr(photo, 'Rating') and photo.Rating > 0:
try:
thiscaption = photo.Caption.encode(outputcodec)
except UnicodeEncodeError:
thiscaption = "Cannot encode caption in codec %s" % outputcodec
print '%s: %d stars' % (thiscaption, photo.Rating)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
My initial try was to use "utf-8" as the output codec, but that wrote garbage
characters when I ran it in Terminal.app - any idea why?
Cheers
Will
