Gimp 2.10 'with files' batch - rich2005 - 11-15-2018
As you know, I am not a coder.
Selina in this post https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Changing-resolution-DPI?pid=11445#pid11445 has an unknown number of .xcf files of various ppi and would like all as 96 ppi.
A little plugin to do one at a time: Does not do much, sets the ppi and saves the image straight away.
Code:
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from gimpfu import*
def plugin_96ppi(img, drawable):
filename = img.filename
pdb.gimp_image_set_resolution(img, 96.0, 96.0)
pdb.gimp_file_save(img, drawable, filename, filename)
pdb.gimp_image_clean_all(img)
register(
"python_fu_96ppi",
"set96ppi",
"*",
"*",
"*",
"2018",
"<Image>/Tools/set-96ppi",
"*",
[],
[],
plugin_96ppi)
main()Can this be used in a Gimp batch mode? https://wiki.gimp.org/wiki/Release:2.10_changelog has a with-files macro. Seems simple but I can not get this to work. Not using the flatpak, using a 'bunt' 18.10 VM & Gimp 2.10.6
Quote:-A new 'with-files' macro is available to run commands on several files at once. For instance, if you want to invert colors of all png files in a directory, and save them as jpg, you could run:
gimp -i -b '(with-files "*.png" (gimp-invert layer) \
(gimp-file-save 1 image layer \
(string-append basename ".jpg") \
(string-append basename ".jpg") ))'
**quiet rant** Gimp really needs some sort of macro facility that does not rely on command line or writing a script. Tried all ways with BIMP but it just does not handle .xcf files with several layers.
RE: Gimp 2.10 'with files' batch - Ofnuts - 11-15-2018
You don't need "with_files" in Python since you have something like this already in the language:
Code:
import glob
for file in glob.glob(sourcedir+'/*.xcf'): # '/' also works in Windows
img=pdb.gimp_file_load(file)
pdb.gimp_image_set_resolution(img, 96.0, 96.0)
pdb.gimp_file_save(img, drawable, file, file)
pdb.gimp_image_clean_all(img)
pdb.gimp_image_delete(image) # only removes the image from Gimp!You stuff this a plugin that takes a single argument that you declare as a PF_DIRNAME in the registration. The user starts the script from a Gimp menu; enters the directory, and there you go.
Coded "from the hip", so some mistakes/oversight possible.
You can make that a shell batch but it's a bit more complicated.
