Topic: Batch from command line
Hi,
I would like to suggest a new feature, which may please those who managed to organize their renaming patterns in Siren and just want to apply those to newly added photos in their photo collections.
Just imaging placing newly added files from flash card to one folder and clicking on a shortcut on a desktop! Full control over your photos!
The suggestion is: make Siren do the batch job from the command line, passing some parameters to it, say:
--batch
This would make Siren run in console mode, not GUI
-from [dir_name]
Directory to organize
--r
Recursive mode (organize files also in subdirectory)
-scheme [scheme_name]
Predifined name in Favorites
-pattern [pattern]
Rename files in given pattern (alternative to predefined schemes)
These are examples:
> siren.exe --batch --r -from="c:\My Photos\" -scheme="My perfect rename scheme"
> siren.exe --batch -from=c:\Photos\ -pattern="%Xdod.%e"
Comments are welcome!
