            Bug ID: 427403
           Summary: Export multiple albums - Exported folder structure
                    shall represent album structure
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Appimage
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Plugin-WebService-FileTransfer
          Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: michstr...@googlemail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Feature request: If pictures of multiple albums are exported, album structure
shall be recreated in "Target Location" via folders (Would be nice to have a
checkmark in export dialog like "Preserve Album Structure").

EXAMPLE:
Album Structure:
A
|-B
| |-ab1.jpg
| |-ab2.jpg
| |-ab3.jpg
|-D
  |-ad1.jpg
  |-ad2.jpg
C
|-c1.jpg

Target Location: (/tmp/test)
/tmp/test
     |-A
     | |-B
     | | |-ab1.jpg
     | | |-ab2.jpg
     | | |-ab3.jpg
     | |-D
     | | |-ad1.jpg
     | | |-ad2.jpg
     |-C
       |-c1.jpg

WORKFLOW REASON:
I administrate all my pictures via digikam on a Linux Machine. To carry these
pictures around on tablets/smart phones/etc, I want to create a reduce quality
copy, which is organized the same way. This allows to find a picture on smart
phone in the already well known Album/Folder structure.

MY WORKAROUND
At the moment I trigger imagemagick from a script, which traverses the picture
folders. But it's a hassle to write around not using pictures, which have an
improved version available. Plus some of my content is in dngs. These I export
currently all into dngexport directory. The script if it encounters a dng to
export, will lookup the picture in the dngexport directory and copy it from
there.
It works, but it feels, like there should be an easier way.
