[digiKam-users] Bootstrap Noob for plugin devel

[Not available]

Hello,
I'm looking for someone to help me get started and set up for developing a plugin for Digikam. I am  not starting from total scratch I have a reasonable handle on C++. but this is the first time I have worked on  on a project of this scale and I have been having trouble getting the environment set up so i can start my first attempts at plugin development for digikam.

The over all plugin goal I have is Vary ambitious and I am well aware it will take a non-trival amount of time to complete if I am even able to; and That is to bring full, local object recognition to digikam. I see it working similar to how the current facial reconciliation works to train but I figured id have a go at using deep learning  since I it can take advantage of Inference so it does not start from scratch  and is lighter on the machine running it

needless to say i wont be starting there ill need to have a reasonable handle on how digikam handles image data and  meta data on that image to even get started.

TL;DR noob needs help setting up for plugin devel

Hi

Sorry for the delay to respond

Which kind of improvements you want to include to digital exactly. It’s not clear in your explanation. 

In all cases, 6.0.0 code must be used for this kind of work.

Best
