Hi Steve, Thanks for the confirmation. It is indeed good news. Feel free to send me privately some screenshots. BTW, I just released Phatch 0.1.3 which is the final version for Ubuntu Hardy.

Stani: You'll be happy to hear that it appears (after a quick test) to work on Vista, though I blush to admit I actually have a Python running on that platform. The font selection is much better than in previous versions - although the names aren't quite the full font names it's pretty easy to tell which one will be used. regards Steve SPE - Stani's Python Editor wrote: > I have been working the last couple of days purely on bug fixing and > to port the code of Phatch fully to Windows as there were many issues. > This has improved: > - Phatch can now create droplets on Windows (win32 extensions > required) > - Installed fonts are retrieved from the Windows registry > - Image file dialogs are now working correctly > - Missing icons are added (including a phatch.ico) and are now > displayed in the windows titlebars > - Image Inspector was missing a panel > - Preview in Image Inspector now displays correctly > - (...) > > Besides that Phatch now features for all platforms: > - fonts can be defined with a nice dropdown autocomplete list > - drop down lists with convenient values in all actions > - the action masks now ships with some predefined masks (such as torn > edges) > - right click in the actions dialog box to see the source of an action > - View>Droplet nows shows the name of the action box rendered in the > logo > - Dutch translation is 100% complete > > As such no new features have been added, but the user experience feels > much more polished now. > > Please read *carefully* the installation instructions first: > http://photobatch.wikidot.com/install#toc6 > > People who have been using Phatch before should clear their font cache > (if it exists).

Please test Phatch on Windows (was Re: ANN: Phatch = PHoto bATCH processor and renamer based on PIL)
I have been working the last couple of days purely on bug fixing and to port the code of Phatch fully to Windows as there were many issues. This has improved: - Phatch can now create droplets on Windows (win32 extensions required) - Installed fonts are retrieved from the Windows registry - Image file dialogs are now working correctly - Missing icons are added (including a phatch.ico) and are now displayed in the windows titlebars - Image Inspector was missing a panel - Preview in Image Inspector now displays correctly - (...) Besides that Phatch now features for all platforms: - fonts can be defined with a nice dropdown autocomplete list - drop down lists with convenient values in all actions - the action masks now ships with some predefined masks (such as torn edges) - right click in the actions dialog box to see the source of an action - View>Droplet nows shows the name of the action box rendered in the logo - Dutch translation is 100% complete As such no new features have been added, but the user experience feels much more polished now. Please read *carefully* the installation instructions first: http://photobatch.wikidot.com/install#toc6 People who have been using Phatch before should clear their font cache (if it exists). Simply delete the file: C:\Documents and Settings\Username\.phatch\fonts I did the Phatch port on a Windows 2000 machine, so I am curious to hear how Phatch works on Windows XP and Vista. I will fix any bug (as far as possible) which is reported quickly in the next couple of days.

This exv file contains all metadata (inclusive type information), which should be easy to parse in python. For example to execute the command "exiv2.exe -e -a", you probably need to do (untested code): from subprocess import call call(['exiv2','-e','a',filename],shell=True) #parse the exiv2 *.exv file If you are able to parse the exv file, mimicking the python-pyexiv2 library api means putting all the tags in a dictionary. Later you need to write back your dictionary to an *.exv file and inject it with "exiv -i" into another image file. This should you get started, here all command line options of exiv2 are defined: http://linux.die.net/man/1/exiv2 At the moment Phatch only needs to be able copy the exif tags from one image file to another, but this will change in the future as Phatch will allow modifying custom exif data, rotating based on exif & iptc data and do time shifting. The current functionality is available as the function copy_metadata at core/lib/_pyexiv2.py There is also another tool to handle exiftags, called exiftool, which is Perl based. I prefer exiv2 as it is much faster: http://picurl.net/development/wiki/Exiv2vsExifTool I hope this gives enough pointers for people to bring EXIF & IPTC support to Python and Phatch.

Anyhow, just a suggestion based on the first impressions, I like the name Phatch as it close to "patching photos" as well. Most people remember it as a contraction of PHoto bATCH, which I would not use as a name because it is too general and many programs are called like that. Phatch is also not such a polluted namespace when you google. There only seems to be chef cook called Phatch, of which I now follow his recipes through Google Alerts. That is rather amusing than disturbing. > great > tool, great functionality.

You need to compile two things: 1. the exiv2 library 2. the python-pyexiv2 bindings For the exiv2 library, you will have to dive into the project: The Windows executable provided here was compiled with the MinGW cross compiler on an Intel 32 bit machine running Debian. Maybe the exiv2 Yahoo! group is the right place to be. If you look there for Windows threads maybe some might be helpful: http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/exiv2/message/956 The author of python-pyexiv2 is active there as well and explains his project uses Scons: http://uk.groups.yahoo.com/group/exiv2/message/1002 I am not an expert on compiling extensions. In fact I only know Python. A windows version of exiv2 and python-pyexiv2 will only exist if some Windows programer(s) take the initiative. In case you can't compile, it wouldn't be so hard to write a wrapper around the provided windows executable to mimic the API of python- pyexiv2. I am afraid I can't help you more.

Istvan PS. the name Phatch is a bit hard to prononunce (easily confusable with fetch), it is not easy to talk about it in a live conversation. You should just call it photo-batch, in the end all the acronym saves you is four letters and you lose the obvious meaning of what the tool does.

Thanks for the confirmation Stani : as I suspected, this means exiv2 is (deliberately ?) not end-user-ready for Windows (as in, download, install and configure).

EXIF/IPTC were fashionable in python circles some years ago but apart from a long-dead sourceforge project and a couple of read-only modules, nothing really came out of it.

So you can name your files or write data stamps (date, aperature, velocity, ...) based on EXIF information. If you want to save EXIF and IPTC information to files you need python-pyexiv2.

It is an open wiki, but I changed it. I am a bit reluctant as the only website which is fixed now is http://photobatch.stani.be and all other parts (dedibox, wikidot) might change once I've got the time to build my own website.

RTFM: the web site instructions clearly state that setup.py doesn't
currently work with Windows. You should be able to double-click on the
program in Explorer, or use any of the standard ways of creating a link
shortcut.

Hm. I just gave it a try on Windows, but in vain. See below.

ANN: Phatch = PHoto bATCH processor and renamer based on PIL
I'm pleased to announce the release of Phatch which is a powerful batch processor and renamer. Phatch exposes a big part of the Python Imaging Library through an user friendly GUI. (It is using python-pyexiv2 to offer more extensive EXIF and IPTC support.) Phatch is not targeted at manipulating individual pictures (such as with Gimp), but repeating the same actions on hundreds or thousands of images. If you know PIL and have some nice recipes laying around, it is very easy to write plugins as Phatch generates the corresponding GUI automagically just like in Django. Any existings PIL scripts can be added very easily. Let me know if you want to contribute or have any questions.

(Only the droplet functionality needs to be ported.) Phatch is submitted to Debian unstable and Ubuntu Hardy. Packagers for other platforms are welcome. Requirements: - PIL 1.1.5 or higher - wxPython 2.6 or higher - pyexiv2 (optional) - python nautilus bindings (optional) Best regards, Stani -- http://pythonide.stani.be -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
