Is there a tag tree uploader?

[Piter Dias]

Guys,

I just uploaded a huge tags tree to digiKam 4.5 by running several MySQL scripts because I did not found a way to do it using digiKam. It seems that I can only create one by one using the tag manager.

Isn't digiKam able upload a tags tree (from a file, for example)?

Is it something you guys would like to see IF I manage to add to the Tag manager?

Hello,

I have think of it, but haven't the time.

But I think, this is a great new skill for digikam :
- ability to share tag trees with other (for exemple for species
register ...some tags and their tree should be recover from external API
- http://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=126438 see
classification that can be retrieve here :
http://lsid.tdwg.org/summary/urn:lsid:marinespecies.org:taxname:126438).

Gretings,

Eric

Hi,

I sometimes have the following problem (which could be used
for good in this case):

A friend sends me images, tagged according to his tag-tree.
By importing those images to digikam, the tags are
automatically read from the images' EXIF data and created in
the tag tree. (The problem in my case: I don't want those
foreign tags, since I have a different kind of sorting in my
tag tree.)

So, to export tags:
 1. Take a picture in your photocollection
 2. Assign all your tags to this one picture
 3. Write those metadata to the image's EXIF
 4. Send this picture (include the tag tree) to a friend

To import this tag tree:
 5. Just move this picture in your digikam collection folder
 6. All tags should get read and created in your digikam
    tag tree

I haven't tried, but I think it could work this way. At
least as a workaround until a real export/import function is
implemented.

Regards,
        Peter
