Noob needs a hand... - vndep - 06-21-2019
Hi, All,
Noob here. I am trying to write a very simple GIMP-python script; all I want to do is:
(a) starting with a clean background
(b) read a .jpg file from my disk into an image object (e.g., a blue sky with clouds)
© have the image appear on top of the background
(d) write some text in black on top of the image (e.g., "Sample Text")
(e) save the whole thing as a new .png file somewhere on my disk.
I am almost all the way there; I am getting an error when I save (noted below) using this line:
pdb.gimp_file_save(1, new_img, layer, outputpath, 'AAA_TEST.png')
Thanks in advance! All help is welcome!
CODE FOLLOWS:
def python_sample_scriptC(image, layer) : #FUNCTION DEFINITION
pdb.gimp_image_undo_group_start(image)
pdb.gimp_context_push()
imagepath = 'G:/Users/Star/Dropbox/Projects/Stock photos/blue-clouds-day-53594.jpg'
outputpath = 'G:/Users/Star/Dropbox/Projects/Stock photos/AAA_TEST.png'
text = 'SAMPLE TEXT'
drawableFLAG = None
xval = 10
yval = 10
borderval = 0
antialiasFLAG = FALSE
sizeval = 100
sizetypeval = 1
fontnameval = 'Arial Heavy'
pdb.gimp_message('LOAD IMAGE')
imageobj = pdb.file_jpeg_load(imagepath, imagepath)
pdb.gimp_display_new(imageobj)
pdb.gimp_message('CREATE TEXT LAYER')
textlayerval = pdb.gimp_text_fontname(imageobj, drawableFLAG, xval, yval, text, borderval, antialiasFLAG, sizeval, sizetypeval, fontnameval)
pdb.gimp_message('SET TEXT COLOR')
pdb.gimp_text_layer_set_color(textlayerval, '#ff0000')
time.sleep(1)
pdb.gimp_message('DUPLICATE')
new_image = pdb.gimp_image_duplicate(imageobj)
pdb.gimp_message('MERGE')
layer = pdb.gimp_image_merge_visible_layers(new_image, CLIP_TO_IMAGE)
pdb.gimp_message('SAVE')
# THE CODE FAILS ON THE NEXT LINE
pdb.gimp_file_save(1, new_img, layer, outputpath, 'AAA_TEST.png')
pdb.gimp_context_pop()
pdb.gimp_image_undo_group_end(image)
pdb.gimp_displays_flush()
#return

You don't need to provide the "run-mode" parameter ; and the variable for your new image is 'new_image', no 'new_img'.
So, replace
Quote:pdb.gimp_file_save(1, new_img, layer, outputpath, 'AAA_TEST.png')
by
Quote:pdb.gimp_file_save(new_image, layer, outputpath, 'AAA_TEST.png')
