| Part_0 | Introduction & Overview of PhotoApps utilities useful to any Linux user |
| - Many applications based on bash shell scripts & command line utilities | |
| - Run these apps with test/demo files provided, then run with your files. | |
| - We teach Linux fundamentals as well as the Vancouver Utilities | |
| - files & directories, bits & bytes, ASCII coding, hexadecimal, etc | |
| - Unix/Linux command line utilities (ls,cd,cat,more,head,vi/vim,etc) | |
| - Great training just by studying documentation on the website | |
| - Even better if you can download/install Vancouver Utilities | |
| - Or a userid/password guest login maybe available to allow you | |
| to test/demo applications without having to download/install |
| Part_1 | renameIMG2 - Insert Date_Time prefixes on digital camera photos |
| - extract the Date/Times from digital camera photos & rename photos by | |
| inserting the Date_Time_ prefixes on existing camera assigned filenames | |
| - uses 'EXIFTOOL' utility free download from 'exiftool.org' | |
| - digital cameras assigned names such as DSCF0001,DSCF0002,etc whenever the | |
| camera memory was dumped to computer & cleared for next batch of photos. | |
| - A problem if you want to reorganize & combine old photos into new albums, | |
| because filenames were duplicated each time you dumped your camera photos | |
| - You probably allowed for this by setting up a date/time stamped sub-dirs | |
| & perhaps within a super-directory for the year. | |
| - I used renameIMG2 to insert Date_Time_ prefixes into my 23,000 photos (60GB) | |
| collected over 20 years in 400 subdirs (dated as yyyymmdd when camera dumped | |
| - You can demo renameIMG2 with a few sample photos provided either on your | |
| machine if you have Vancouver Utilities downloaded/installed, OR if you | |
| have one of the UV Software website userid/password logins. |
| Part_2 | DTstamp1,2,3,4 - Annotate photos with filenames & date/times |
| - overlays photos with filenames & date/times on bottom edge of all photos | |
| in all subdirs of all years, assumes input from renameIMG2 above | |
| - DTstamp1,DTstamp2,DTstamp3 scripts provided to annotate filenames/datetimes | |
| for 1 photo, all photos in 1 subdir, or all photos in all superdirs/subdirs | |
| - uses 'annotate' function of ImageMagick free download from 'imagemagick.org' |

FaceID scripts (FaceId1,2,3,4) are intended to Identify Faces for 1 photo, all in a subdir, all subdirs in a superdir, or all subdirs in all superdirs. using photos of known people to create filename filename lists of input photos followed by the filenames of the known people recognized.
We can then use the photo filename/people lists to copy the photo files, renaming the files to include the person initials, For example:
For an input photo named 'yyyymmdd_HHMMSS_dscf0001.jpg, the output file might be named 'yyyymmdd_HHMMSS_OtJtMc.jpg', where 'OtJtMc' are intials for Owen Townsend, Jill Townsend,& Mia Cameron.
This Allows you to select photos including known persons using command line tools (such as 'ls'), without having to view the photos (a very slow process).
Part3 FaceId is not yet available as of Feb 2022. We are still evaluating which 3rd party software tool to use. I am investigating the 'face_recognition' package by Adam Geitgey.

PhotoApps documents several applications based on bash shell scripts & Linux Command Line Utilities supplemented with a few uvcopy programs when shell scripts insufficient.
You can run these apps with test/demo files provided, & then run with your files. PhotoApps is a great way for Linux newbies to self-educate on scripts & CLI commands.
We teach Linux fundamentals - files & directories, bits & bytes, Unix/Linux Command Line Utilities (ls,cd,cat,more,head,vi/vim,etc) Great training just by studying documentation on the website. Even better if you can download/install Vancouver Utilities. Or a userid/password guest login maybe available to allow you to test/demo applications without having to download/install

| 1F0. | scripts used to rename photos inserting Date/Time prefixes. |
renameIMG2 - super-script to insert Date/Time prefixes on photo filenames
- calls renameIMG1 to rename photos for any 1 year of photo history
renameIMG1 - rename photos in each subdir (yyyymmdd) in current year (yyyy)
- calls sub-scripts renameLNX,renameL2,exfinfo,makeIMGrenames
renameLNX - delete any non-printable characters in photo filenames
renameL2 - rename an entire directory of filenames to lower case
exifinfo - extract Date/Time info for all photos in a directory
- using exiftool, free download from exiftool.org
makeIMGrenames - make script to rename inserting Date/Time prefixes in filenames
- calls 'uvmakeIMGrenames' to match current filename to exifinfo
uvmakeIMGrenames - uvcopy job to lookup tables of filenames & exifinfo
We will list only 2 scripts 'renameIMG1' on page '1F1' & 'exifinfo' on '1F2'. but you can see them all on the website at the links given on page '1F0'.
1F1. renameIMG1 - script to rename photos to original date_time sequence
- copies all photo files from 1 directory to a 2nd directory
renaming as yyyymmdd_hhmmss_original-filename
- called by renameIMG2 to process all subdiirs within a superdir
| 1F2. | exifinfo - script calling 'exiftool' (free download from exiftool.org) |
| This script listed since it is the most vital part of the renameIMG project | |
| Please visit https://exiftool.org (most informative & meticulously documented) |
| 1G1. | Script Writing Tips |
| We hope newbies will learn good "Script Writing Habits" by studying these scripts. | |
| We also list a simpler script 'allrm' to help you learn to write your own scripts./ | |
| See listed on page '1G1' or at https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/allrm |
| 1G2. | Working Directory Tips |
| Designing your directory structures is an important part of script writing. | |
| Setup a working directory for each project with sub-directories holding all | |
| files, no files in working directory, address files thru 1 level of subdir. |
We hope you will use these scripting & directory/file tips to develope your script writing skills. You might start by writing a script to copy all files from 1 directory to a 2nd directory (might call it 'allcopy' patterned after the 'allrm' script listed on the previous page).
See the 'allcopy' solution at: https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/allcopy But don't look until you have written & tested your own solution. Then think about writing your own application - perhaps mass processing some of your own text files to achieve some desired outcome.

This document is on the website at https://uvsoftware.ca/photoapps.htm#Part_1 & stored in $UV/doc/renameIMG.doc if you have Vancouver Utilities installed on your computer.
This document describes procedures to extract the Date/Times from digital camera photos & rename the photos by inserting the Date/Times as prefixes to the filenames assigned by digital cameras - for example: DSCF0001,DSCF0002,etc .
Old digital cameras re-assigned names such as DSCF0001,DSCF0002,etc whenever the camera memory was dumped to computer & memory cleared for the next batch of photos.
This is a problem if you want to reorganize & combine your old photos in new albums, because the filenames were duplicated each time you dumped your camera photos onto your computer. You probably allowed for this by setting up a date/time stamped sub-dirs & perhaps within a super-directory for the year.
I will describe the procedures I used when I inserted Date/Time prefixes into the names of my digital camera photos from years 2002-2021 (23,000 photos, 60 Gigabytes).
Later I will present a demo that you can run with a few photos if you have Vancouver Utilities installed or if you have access to 1 of my website logins/passwords.
Here are links to a few samples of the renamed photos. Actually these are the outputs from Part_2 which Annotates the photos with filenames & date/times.
Scripts DTstamp1,DTstamp2,&DTstamp3 are provided to annotate filenames/datetimes for 1 photo, all photos in 1 subdir, or all photos in all superdirs/subdirs using the 'annotate' function of ImageMagick free download from 'imagemagick.org'

These procedures apply to the directory structures described above, that illustrate 20 years of photos stored in directories by year, subdirs within year whenever camera was dumped & cleared for next batch.
Folowing these general procedures, I will present a demo that you can execute on only a few sample photos provided in $UV/demo/testphotos/... You would need Vancouver Utilities installed on your machine, or you would need a userid/password for one of the UV Software website guest logins.
Here are the procedures that I used to insert dates/times in my 20 years of photos (60 GB) that I had copied from an older computer to USB for processing on a new computer with more disc space. I setup the directories on a 2nd HDD (vs the OS SDD). I had created multiple file-sytems named /h21 /h22 /h23 /h24 /h5 /h26 /h27 /h28.
#1. cd /h28 <-- change to a filesystem with sufficient space
=======
#2. mkdir photosA photosB photosC
=============================
- make the global directories as previously described
#3a. cp -r /media/usb/photosA photosA <-- copy from USB to photosA/... on disc
================================
#3b. cp -r /media/usb/photosA photosB <-- OR could copy direct to photosB/...
================================
- could omit photosA on disc (since backup on USB) & do processing in photosB
- change above as required if you stored on USB as zip or tar files
#4. cp -r photosA/* photosB/
========================
- omit this is you copied usb direct to photosB (#3b above)
#5. cd photosB <-- change into photosB for processing
==========
#6. clean-up old photo directories
==============================
Remove any unwanted files from your photo subdirs before executing renameIMG2, such as thumbs.db, thumbnail.info, pspbrswe.jbf, etc. These are temporary files created by verious photo viewing software.
Note that exiftool will get the dates/times for videos as well as .jpg's (.mov, .avi, .mp4, etc)

#6. mkdir 2002DT 2003DT 2004DT ... 2021DT <-- could make output superdirs, but no need
=====================================
- unnecessary because renameIMG2 makes output superdirs/subdirs as required
- better not to make ahead of time, helps track which superdirs yet to be processed
#7a. renameIMG2 2002 2002DT <-- rename photos from 2002/subdirs/files to 2002DT/.../...
======================
#7b. renameIMG2 2003 2003DT <-- rename photos from 2003/subdirs/files to 2003DT/.../...
======================
----- etc -----
#7t. renameIMG2 2021 2021DT <-- rename photos from 2021/subdirs/files to 2021DT/.../...
======================
#8. cd .. <-- change above global dirs photosA,photosB,photosC
=====
#9. cp -r photosB/*DT photosC <-- copy all ouput superdirs from photosB/... to photosC/...
=========================
#9a. mv photosB/*DT photosC <-- OR move superdirs from photosB/... to photosC/...
====================== if you want to retain in the processing directory
#10. rename-X photosC DT <-- remove 'DT' suffixes from 2002DT 2003DT ... 2021DT
=================== - to use same names as original inputs in photosA

The above directory tree shows only the filenames of files in photosB/exifinfo/... To see the CONTENTS, you could use vi/cat/more/head/etc to display the records for a few output files to verify the date/Time prefixes inseerted as desired.
We suggest using the 'head' to see the 1st few records in each file. 'head' adds a title with filename to compensate for the fact that ImageMagick convert does NOT insert #comments with filename (as makeIMGrenames for the renames/scripts).

https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/renameIMG2 ================================================ - super-script to rename photos to original date_time sequence - renames as yyyymmdd_hhmmss_original-filename - renames all files in all sub-dirs in a super-dir (for each year) while creating a 2nd superdir with multiple sub-dirs & multiple files - calls renameIMG1 to process each sub-dir within the superdir
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/renameIMG1 <-- listed on page '1E2' ================================================ - rename photos in each subdir (yyyymmdd) in a superdir (yyyy) - called by renameIMG2 to process all subdirs within a superdir - calls sub-scripts renameLNX,renameL2,exfinfo,makeIMGrenames
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/renameLNX =============================================== - rename all files in directory to Linux filenaming conventions - Deleting characters in filenames that must be escaped on Linux - also removing any LowBit & HiBit characters that would make filenames unprintable
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/renameL2 ============================================== - rename an entire directory of filenames to lower case - same as original version 'renameL' with prompts disabled
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/exifinfo <-- listed on page '1E3' ============================================== - extract Date/Time info for all photos in a directory - using exiftool, great tool by Phil Harvey - writes a file with Date/Time info for all photos in subdir - file written to exifinfo directory named for the current subdir - 1 line for each photo, original photo filename on left side - uvmakeIMGrenmaes will find matches by original photo filename
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/makeIMGrenames ==================================================== - make script to rename photos to original date_time sequence - renames as yyyymmdd_hhmmss_originalfilename - calls uvcopy job 'uvmakeIMGrenames' to match current filenmae to Date/Time info written by 'exiftool' in the 'exifinfo' directory
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/pf/util/uvmakeIMGrenames ====================================================== - uvmakeIMGrenames is a uvcopy job called by the 'makeIMGrenames' script - makes scripts to rename photos inserting Date/Time prefixes - renames as yyyymmdd_hhmmss_## '_##' appended if > 1 in same second

We hope you will use these scripting & directory/file tips to develope your script writing skills. You might start by writing a script to copy all files from 1 directory to a 2nd directory (might call it 'allcopy' patterned after the 'allrm' script listed on the previous page).
If you want to test for an empty output directory, see line 42 in https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/renameIMG2 as follows:
if [[ "$(ls -A $d2)" ]]; then echo "ERROR - outdir must be empty"; exit 92; fi;
See the 'allcopy' solution at: https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/allcopy But don't look until you have written & tested your own solution.
Then think about writing your own application - perhaps mass processing some of your own text files to achieve some desired outcome.

'DTstamp' is a Follow-On Project to Annotate photos with Filename & Date/Times on bottom edge of all photos in all subdirs of all years. We will copy photosC/* date/time prefixed photos to photosD/... & run scripts to annotate photos using the 'annotate' function of ImageMagick (free download/install).
| 2A1. | Overview of project to Annotate photos with filenames |
| 2B0. | Listings of scripts used to annotate photos for 1 at a time, all photos in |
| 1 directory,& all photos in all directories within a super-directory. |
| 2B1. | Annotate filename on 1 photo at a time while copying to separate file |
| 2B2. | Annotate filenames on all photos in a directory while copying to 2nd directory |

| 2B3. | Annotate filenames on all photos in all directories of a super-directory |
| Our SUPER-directories were the years holding the directories from the | |
| various camera dumps within each year. |
| 2B4. | Annotate filenames on all photos in all directories of all super-directories |
| for the 20 years of camera photos collected by Owen Townsend. | |
| DTstamp4 called DTstamp3 for each year. The years were hard-coded in the | |

Part 2 is a "Follow-On" project from Part 1, which inserted Date/Time prefixes on the filenames of photos from digital cameras, which often assigned duplicate names after camera dumps & memory clear.
Part 2 will "Annotate" photos with the photo Filename (including Date/Time prefix) on bottom edge of the photos using the 'annotate' function of 'ImageMagick' which is free to download/install. We have scripts (DTstamp1,DTstamp2,DTstamp3,DTstamp4) to Annotate 1 photo, all photos in a directory,& all photos in all sub-directories of a super-directory.
The scripts are most conveneintly listed on the following pages (2B1,2B2,2B3,2B4). You can also see these scripts on the UV Software website at the following links:
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/DTstamp1 ============================================== - annotate filename on 1 photo
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/DTstamp2 ============================================== - annotate filenames on all photos in a directory - our directory names were the dates when digital cameras were dumped yyyymmdd
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/DTstamp3 ============================================== - annotate filenames on all photos in all directories of a super-directory - our super-directories were the years holding the directories from the various camera dumps within each year.
https://uvsoftware.ca/uvadm/sf/util/DTstamp4 ============================================== - annotate filenames on all photos in all directories of all super-directories for the 20 years of camera photos collected by Owen Townsend. - DTstamp4 called DTstamp3 for each year. The years were hard-coded in the script, so DTstamp4 is not general purpose as are DTstamp1,2,3.
You might also be able to run these scripts on test files provided if you have a userid/password to 1 of UV Software's guest login accounts, Or if you have downloaded/installed Vancouver Utilities on your machine. See Login details on page '3A1'.

You can execute DTstamp demos using a set of test dirs/files that are provided in $UV/demo/testphotos/... You would need Vancouver Utilities installed on your machine, or you would need a userid/password for one of the UV Software website guest logins. Here are the instructions to login to a guest website
#1. ssh uvsoftxx@uvsoftware.ca <-- Online userid in range uvsoft00-uvsoft99
==========================
--> passxx <-- enter your password at the prompt
- assigned to you by UV Software
#2. cdm --> $HOME/uvsoftxx/demo
===
| Note |
|
#1. Login userxx <-- Alternative Login ON YOUR OWN MACHINE
============ if YOU HAVE DOWNLOADED & INSTALLED VANCOUVER UTILITIEs
--> passxx <-- enter your password at the prompt
- assigned to you by YOURSELF or your SYSADM
#2. mkdir demo <-- make a demo directory (if not already present)
==========
#3. cd demo <-- change into your demo directory
=======
#4. cdm <-- OR use handy alias cdm='cd $HOME/demo'
=== - works from anywhere on your system
#5. pwd <-- confirm you are in your $HOME/demo directrory
=== --> will show: /home/userxx/demo, userxx is your login (john,mary,etc)
#6. cp -r $UV/demo/* . <-- copy all $UV/demo subdirs/files to your homedir/demo/...

Part_3. FaceId - Identify Faces in photos
Part 3 FaceID - Contents
FaceID scripts (FaceId1,2,3,4) are intended to Identify Faces for 1 photo,
all in a subdir, all subdirs in a superdir, or all subdirs in all superdirs.
using photos of known people to create filename filename lists of input photos
followed by the filenames of the known people recognized.
We can then use the photo filename/people lists to copy the photo files,
renaming the files to include the person initials, For example:
For an input photo named 'yyyymmdd_HHMMSS_dscf0001.jpg, the output file might be
named 'yyyymmdd_HHMMSS_OtJtMc.jpg', where 'OtJtMc' are intials for Owen Townsend,
Jill Townsend,& Mia Cameron.
This Allows you to select photos including known persons using command line tools
(such as 'ls'), without having to view the photos (a very slow process).
Part3 FaceId is not yet available as of Feb 2022. We are still evaluating which
3rd party software tool to use. I am investigating the 'face_recognition'
package by Adam Geitgey.
