[Bug 202641] New: Import images - always increase renaming counter by number of images imported

[Michal Thoma]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=202641

           Summary: Import images - always increase renaming counter by
                    number of images imported
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Import tool is very good feature of digikam. I recently started using it and
tried renaming the files and using counter to make all image names original.
It's very beneficial if there are no duplicate file names in archive and this
should help prevent it.

But the setback here is that when i start counter with number 1 next time it
again starts from 1! so in fact it will create duplicate file name!

I think digikam should always increase the starting number of the counter by
the amount of images imported so that next use of Import tool won't create same
file names.

For most people counter is used for current job renaming so this particular
would harmful for most users.

However, interesting feature for digiKam import would be renaming images to
make sure all images have unique numbers. Think about OAI and its identifiers

http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/guidelines-oai-identifier.htm

Note that for home use it is probably overkill and much more practical is
schema {iso-date}_##### :)

Yes, that would be nice.

Yes, that would also do, unfortunately AFAIK Import tool don't support such
smart tags like {iso-date} or {original-filename} etc.

That is not true. I have implemented a ManualRenameWidget , that allows such
tags. It can be found in Camera-Import and in BQM.
It is not yet complete, but it features things like original filename, custom
date format and custom numbering (with leading zeros and custom ranges /
steps).
The only thing that is missing is the use of Metadata tags. But it will be
implemented.

Oh, I see now in 1.0.0b3. Before I was looking at 0.10.0 which don't have such
feature still. So this is quite enough, great job and thank you!

Added some test cases to verify the functionality.

I'm adding some quick access buttons to the rename widget:

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2476/3800136351_fb9853cc1d_o.jpg

Setting up individual import names should be easier then. The only thing that
is not working right now is the Metadata button...

Very nice! With this new manual rename widget I find the old Custom rename
rather obsolete.

Yes, I think it could be obsolete then.
I still need to figure out how to make it more extensible, it is working
(somehow :-)), but I'm not happy.
The plan is to just add another token / parser, and the rest will work
automatically.

What is working now:
- register the parser button automatically
- register the menu entry for the toolbutton automatically
- create the tooltip automatically

What is not working:
- the parser itself :) I need to abstract a lot, so that a common parse method
can be used.

When all is working, I can image tokens / parser like:
- metadata (completely customizable)
- add author information
- tags information

etc...

Some rename options might not work in the cameraUI, but since we use this
widget also in BQM, they could work in there, because BQM has full access to
the database.

This is the actual status:
http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2480/3811917860_0db6100ea8_o.jpg

But the only parsers really working are:
- File Name
- Camera Name
- Sequence Number
- Time & Date

the rest is just added at the moment to test the registration, and to show some
ideas for additional parsers.

This report can be closed?
I don't know if it is practical for most users to keep track of the index, but
with AdvancedRename, you can set your starting index manually, see
http://www.flickr.com/photos/26732399@N05/4089342906/in/pool-digikam-labs
for example.

Is this enough for your needs?

First of all, I really enjoy digikam (current version 1.0.0-1, debian testing),
so thanks for that.

I've found a side effect of the "always increase renaming counter". When I want
to use different names within one batch import, it remembers the count of the
previous name. For instance, I import 10 photos according to "a###" and then
import 10 photos according to "b###". The result will be a001 to a010, and b011
to b020. I can circumvent this by restarting the importer, but I think it could
be done in a nicer way.

This should be fixed a long time ago, so we can close the bug.

Gilles:
By the way, the importing tool seems to be broken (CameraUI), it doesn't update
the new image names and it always asks me in which folder to put the downloaded
images, although I selected the album before (and then pressed CTRL+I).

I just checked, and the behavior as described in comment 11 is still present in
my version of Digikam. Like I said previously, it's not a big issue but it
would be nice if it'd be handled differently.
