Subject: Re: [sqlite] SQLite in Adobe Lightroom
As the Adobe engineer who did much of the work to embed SQLite into
Lightroom, I do want to express a couple of cautions about directly
manipulating your Lightroom library.
Eric,
It's good to see an official Adobe representative on the list... ;^)
I understand and appreciate your comments. In my case, I would only
(possibly) have an interest in *reading* data from db. I am an
Pixmantec RSP user (which was recently absorbed by Adobe and then
dead-ended) and have desparetely been trying to get Adobe to release
the format of RSP's proprietary ".RWS" file so I can recover some of
the work I've put into (my over 10-thousand) RSP RAW conversions.
While that's looking unlikely to happen (though I'm still holding out
some hope), I do see that Adobe plans to provide an RSP to Lightroom
conversion tool. After noticing that LR uses SQLite, I am now hoping
that the converted RWS settings will be stored in the SQLite database,
which will hopefully make them more accessible to me (for use in other
parts of my DAM workflow) than they currently are locked away in the
binary RWS file.
Is it safe to assume that conversion settings will be stored in the
SQLite database? I don't suppose I we'll see any public schema
documentation on the database content, will we?
Thanks for any additional insight.
Also, if this is deemed too far off topic for the list, I'll be happy
to take it offline.
Thanks,
Jeff
