🗃️ Exporting original images - rather than smaller copies in database

[rleaver152]

Hi - Is it possible to export the original images as opposed to the shrunken copies inside the pupyl database?

" It would be great to be able to batch interrogate the database using a Bash script (within the virtual environment) and the CLI to:

eg input (eg -in flag) search image to CLI and copy matches (within a defined match value) to a (-o flag) named folder

This bash code does it the hard way

reverse_search_images_my_pupyl_search_and_replace_with_originals() {
echo "start this above pupyl source files directory"
thisDirectory="$PWD"
export_baseDirectory="$PUPYL_EXPORT_DIRECTORY"

if [[ -z "$1" ]]; then
   echo "need directory  to search"
   else
        target_Directory="$(basename "$1")"
#       echo "target directory=$target_Directory"
for directoryFile in "$PUPYL_EXPORT_DIRECTORY"/"$target_Directory"/* ; do \
myVal=$(gfind "$directoryFile" -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type f  -exec echo "{}" \; )
mySearch=$(basename "$myVal" )
gfind "$target_Directory" -type f -name "$mySearch" -exec gcp "{}" "$directoryFile"/. \;
done
fi


}
export -f reverse_search_images_my_pupyl_search_and_replace_with_originals

Hi @rleaver152,

Good idea! Actually we should had done this before. We'll start working on that, on the next couple of weeks should be part of the mainstream.
