Description julien.t43+kde 2012-11-08 01:53:35 UTC
In current 2.8, permissions could be: only friends, friends of friends, my network and friends (?), Everyone.

In the web, you have two more options: only me and customs.

the "only me" is especially useful if you want to upload first your album, check it and after make it public.

Reproducible: Always

In digikam 3.2.0 there are only 2 options in permission:direct upload and manually, and thus user can change the permission only themselves by going to facebook and selecting the permission they want.

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.
