I'd like to be able to sync people tags with Facebook in the following way: * Whenever I tag a face Digikam will refresh the list with my latest friends * If I upload pictures to Facebook via Digikam I want to see the faces tags on Facebook as well and I want them to be correct. I'm not seeing this currently. NB: This applies to Picasa/Google+ as well, probably other photo sharing services as well. It may be more suitable to handle globally and not on the plugin level. I have no idea what's the internal architecture of Digikam. Reproducible: Always
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. Gilles Caulier
