Description Andi Clemens 2011-12-27 10:11:51 UTC
Version:           2.5.0 (using KDE 4.7.3) 
OS:                Linux

The plugin should be splitted, because it is confusing to activate the Flickr plugin in the digiKam setup page and get three different export plugins loaded in the host application. 
You are not able to unload 23 or Zoomr, although you never use them.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Unload all kipi-plugins
2. Load Flickr (the only kipi plugin I use)


Actual Results:  
3 export actions, which seem to be unrelated (at least to the average user)

Expected Results:  
only export to flickr should be visible

OS: Linux (i686) release 3.1.5-1-ARCH
Compiler: gcc

Accordingly with wikipedia :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zooomr

Zooomr photo sharing web site is dead.

About 23HQ, there is another entry to split code from flickr tool. See this comment:

WARNING : with digiKam 6.0.0 and later, we will not support kipi interface anymore. All tools are now located in digiKam core as well for a plan to provide a more power-full integration with Batch Queue Manager and to be able to export a workflow on a web-service.

All export tools are now available everywhere : album view, Image editor, Light table, and Showfoto. Previously, only album view from digiKam core was able to deal with export tools through libkipi.

All export tools are now located here :

https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/utilities/assistants/webservices

All export tools use now a dedicated interface to communicate with the application : 

- digiKam (database) : 

https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/libs/database/utils/ifaces/dbinfoiface.h

- Showfoto (files metadata) : 

https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/core/utilities/assistants/common/dmetainfoiface.h


There is not direct use of digiKam database for compatibility with Showfoto.

We plan later to provide a dynamic loading of export tools using a plugins mechanism. This will reduce overloading of the internal core libraries. A dedicated devel branch have been created for that, but it's not yet complete:

https://cgit.kde.org/digikam.git/tree/?h=development/dplugins

But take a care, digiKam export tools as plugins will not be shared with another external application. API will still private and only shared between Showfoto and digiKam core. The experience with libkipi was bad and complex to maintain/extend in time.
