EXPORT HTML - use digikam thumbnail database

Hi,

Is it possible to generate HTML gallery without using thumbnail
generation but using existing thumbnail of digikam database or dedicated
directory containing already generated thumbnails?

Thanks

libkipi provide api to take thumbnails from kipi host application.
Typically, with digiKam, plugin get thumbnails from digiKam DB.

It's done for most of plugins for kipi-plugins, as DNG converter for ex.

For HTMLExport, i don't know, as i don't maintain this tool.

where is, exactly, the documentation one should read to write a shell
script that generates a thumbnail gallery straight out the DIGIKAM sqlite
database? (either through libkipi, or directly?) I'd really like to know
more about this and try

Thanks,
Marco

Look in libkipi Interface class :

https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kdegraphics/libs/libkipi/repository/revisions/master/entry/libkipi/interface.h#L212

... there is 2 method to ask to KIPI host application thumbnails of
items. Just pass url as argument and the size of thumbnails that you
need.

digiKam re-implement these method and will play with thumbs DB. It
very fast. If thumb are not yet in DB, it will be generated by digiKam
thumb processor.

Best

Interesting as the interface from the plugin always ask for thumbnail
size I am assuming it always generate it. It is rather slow!
