ImageProcessor

Console application that is responsible for creating thumbnails and loading the data for MystiickWeb.

It processes all images in the source folder, creates a thumbnail image (max length/width 250px) and a preview image (max length/width 1920px). Additionally it will look for a file in each folder: tags to automatically apply a Category, Subcategory, and Tags for quickly classifying groups of pictures at once.
Some additional data is automatically captured from the exif of the images.

• Camera Model
• Date taken
• ISO
• Shutter Speed
• Aperature
• Focal Length

Running Locally

To run the application locally, you need to complete 2 steps:

1. Have a mysql server setup with the schema applied.
   • To easily do this, you can run .\quickstart-dev.sh in MystiickWeb's Quickstart. This will run a Docker container with the schema applied to it. Alternatively you can run it yourself using the schema from create-database.sql in that same folder.
     2. Configure appsettings.json, or appsettings.dev.json, with the source and archive folders.
   • The SourceFolder is the folder that will hold the unprocessed files. This can have subfolders of images to be processed, or just all of them in the root.
   • The ArchiveFolder is where the processed images and their thumbnail/previews will be moved to.

Once setup, you can run with dotnet run and it will process and files in the source folder.
