KPhotoAlbum/es

KPhotoAlbum es una herramienta que puedes usar para ordenar fácilmente tus imágenes. Tiene muchas características para hacer que la clasificación y visualización de imágenes sea sencilla.

Earlier versions of KPhotoAlbum were released under the name "KimDaBa". Stable releases are always announced on our news page.

Para una introducción, visita el Tour de 3 minutos sobre KPhotoAlbum o los Vídeos en la página de KPhotoAlbum. Para obtener más información y ver algunas imágenes lee Preguntas más frecuentes.

KPhotoAlbum es compatible con todos los formatos de imágenes normales, incluyendo los formatos raw producidos por la mayoría de cámaras digitales y escáneres (usando dcraw para hacer la decodificación). También es posible utilizar las miniaturas incrustadas en las imágenes raw (que normalmente tienen un tamaño y calidad decentes) para una visualización rápida, por lo que no hay necesidad de decodificar la imagen raw completa.

Using KPhotoAlbum

There is a 3-minute Tour and a set of How-To videos on the project site. A KPhotoAlbum handbook is also available as a PDF and on-line version.

Getting KPhotoAlbum

Source packages, binaries for various distros, and snapshots are available from the project Download page.

KPhotoAlbum on Live systems

KPhotoAlbum is available in Neon:

• User Edition has the latest release
• Developer Edition (stable branch) has the 5.x branch.
  Most of the time, this should be the same as unstable, but when new features are developed they only arrive in stable after the roughest edges have been smoothed out.
• Developer Edition (unstable branch) has the master branch of kphotoalbum.

Building KPhotoAlbum

Step-by-step guide to build KPhotoAlbum from source code on Debian or Ubuntu are available on page Building KPhotoAlbum.

Extensiones de KPhotoAlbum

• Image::Kimdaba is a perl module available on CPAN which parses the index.xml database.
  • Write your own extensions to KPhotoAlbum
  • Read Image::Kimdaba to download it and to see available scripts
• Another way to extend KPhotoAlbum is to write KIPI plugins (that are used also by other KDE photo applications). These plugins provide functions like exporting images to websites like Flickr, Picasa, Facebook, ... correcting exif date stamps or doing some other image manipulations. (KPhotoAlbum by itself does not touch the original files at all but preserves them intact).
• Other useful scripts are available from Wes Hardaker's site
• With Kimdaba2Mysql it's possible to:
  • insert your index.xml metadata into a mysql-database
  • generate a search-formular on your website with your kimdaba-keywords, example here
    

• Patches and features awaiting approval or implementation - Please use bugs.kde.org for that.

Con pse3tokimdaba.pl es posible extraer información de tu base de datos de Photoshop Elements 3 para crear un archivo index.xml. Hay muy pocas limitaciones, visita la página anterior para más detalles.

djKPA is a Django web site designed to be the web interface of your KPhotoAlbum photo repository. The philosophy of djKPA is be as far as possible fully automatic: labels, tags, descriptions, ... of photo come from KPhotoAlbum. Nevertheless, djKPA is a real interactive application that allows your visitors to vote, post comments, show exif, ... and visit your photos by browsing the your Tags.

Developer documentation

KPA Release Steps

• Update CMakeLists.txt with the new version number you are just about to tag (alas, our automatic versionning doesn't work anymore )

• Update the ChangeLog to mark the new release and add the key improvements to the list of changes, if they are not already mentioned in the ChangeLog

• Update doc/index.docbook to reflect the new release (if the documentation has been updated)
  

  <releaseinfo>4.5</releaseinfo>

• Commit the last changes
  

  git commit -v -a

• Tag the new release and push it out
  

  git tag -a -m "kpa 4.5 released" v4.5
  git push
  git push --tags

• Create a tar ball of the released sources using the instructions on the following section (kphotoalbum.rb --version 4.5)

• Upload the created tar ball to the incoming directory of upload.kde.org using an FTP client. The current instructions of notifying administrators of the upload are shown when logging in to the FTP server. You create a ticket and provide SHA sums and some other information of the upload.

• Add a new version to Bugzilla (bugs.kde.org, you have to have administrator rights to do this): Edit Products → KPhotoAlbum → Add version

• Update the KPA web pages to point to proper source file, you get a link to the mirroring system as when the uploaded tar to KDE FTP server has been processed. The sources of the web page can be checked out from svn+ssh://svn@svn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/www/sites/kphotoalbum via svn.

• Publish the release information (KPA's web site, mailing lists, distributor's bugtracking system, social media etc.).
  • Don't forget to post on the kde-distro-packagers mailing list, and make sure to mention any changes in dependencies.
  • Update the latest version on top of this page.
• Create a video of the cool new features and publish it on Youtube. A nice tool for doing so is recordmydesktop. If you uploaded such a video, don't forget to add it to the Videos page on the homepage (cf. the README_new_video.txt file).

• Notify people building the binary packages for different distributions

Building a Release

Building a snapshot tar ball is rather straight forward. Install the releaseme building tool and run a command to generate the source package.

git clone git://anongit.kde.org/releaseme
cd releaseme

To create the source package, run e. g.:

./tarme.rb --origin trunk --version 5.1 kphotoalbum

GIT Branches

• master
  Current development branch
• 4.7
  Old stable (Qt4/Plasma4) branch. Only gets fixes for serious bugs on a case-by-case basis.
• 5.x
  Branch tracked by Neon/stable.
  When master is in stable condition, it should be synced to 5.x:

  git checkout 5.x ; git merge master

• Feature branches are used in a very ad-hoc manner. If you are not a developer, don't bother with them.
  If you are a developer, try using descriptive names that are not likely to interfere with future branches.
