Panorama Projection - patrislav - 07-26-2024
Hi,
I need to script Filters -> Map -> Panorama Projection, but can't find it in the Procedure Browser.
Did I miss something, or is it just not available?
(GIMP 2.10 on Ubuntu 24.04)
TIA
Patrick

It is a GEGL function so does not register in the pdb.
You can see the parameters here: https://gegl.org/operations/gegl-panorama-projection.html
It is possible to script in python a GEGL function using a utility plugin, gegl_command.py
The plugin with a very simple example is in this recent post.

A possible / probable snag is if you do not have a working python.
This machine i am using is kubuntu 24.04 / Gimp 2.10.38 from a PPA and an appimage launcher from https://github.com/TasMania17/Gimp-Appimages-Made-From-Debs/releases/tag/Gimp-v2.10.38 (It is the whole Gimp but I prefer to keep a regular installation.)
...or the flatpak Gimp also provides python2

Thank you! Do you know if (and how) it's possible to script these GEGL functions from scheme scripts as well?
(I'm way more comfortable in Python than Scheme, but I don't want my script to require an exotic Gimp installation with a obsolete Python version that's EOL since more than four years).

I have not seen a script-fu version. Not to say one does not exist.
see: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Scripting-GEGL-operations
The gimp_gmic_qt plugin now has a whole section of map projections, maybe one of those is equivalent.

It looks like the script-fu approach requires an additional Python plugin as interface towards GEGL (since the Scheme / script-fu API doesn't provide one).
So if I need Python anyway, I rather write the whole thing in Python
Now I installed the 2.99.18 flatpak (to avoid relying on a obsolete Python version) and figure out how to use the plugin API.
Thanks again!

You need to speak to Ofnuts ...
RE: Panorama Projection - patrislav - 07-26-2024
ok, the plugin API as such seems to be straightforward - but not the GEGL part of it. I'm supposed to build "chains" from "nodes" and "connect" them in some special way. When I just want to apply a operation to an image. All code examples I can find use "python-fu" but it seems to be deprecated.
Are there some simple examples for just applying a GEGL operation to an image, from a GIMP Python plugin? Using the recent version of GIMP Python API?

Ok, found it:

That's GIMP 2.99 stuff !
Won’t work in GIMP 2.10

Yeah, that's why I looked it up (don't want to use obsolete Python version, and/or obsolete GIMP APIs)
