Panoramiopicker was a free Python program for easy upload of large numbers of images from Panoramio to Wikimedia Commons. The program was part of Pywikibot and was deprecated after panoramio was closed.
Installation
[edit]- Pywikibot
Panoramiopicker was part of Pywikibot. You first need to install pywikibot. At Using the pywikibot you can find a manual on how to install pywikibot.
- Easy install
We need to install 2 more packages. For this we need setuptools. You can download the latest version at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools
- Python Image Library
Python Image Library (PIL) was used to show the image. You can install it by running the command at a command prompt:
easy_install PIL
- Configuration
If you recently installed pywikibot your user-config.py contains a panoramio section, otherwise you have to add it to user-config.py yourself. Edit user-config.py with your favorite text editor.
# Configuration of panoramiopicker.py
panoramio = {
'review': False, # Do we use automatically make our uploads reviewed? (True or False)
'reviewer': 'REVIEWER_NAME', # If so, under what reviewer name?
}
- review : If you want to mark all images as review automatically. Use "True" only if you have a reviewer or sysop flag on Commons!
- reviewer : Add your username here if you want to mark images as reviewed by you.
Usage
[edit]To run Panoramiopicker you have to browse to the Pywikibot folder. Then type the following:
python pwb.py panoramiopicker.py
You are presented with various options:
- Options to tell what images to work on:
- set - The id of the Panoramio user to work on. Works on all images uploaded by a user. Username is not an id! For example, id for user Alexxx1979 is 5528490 (you can find it in URL).
- -start_id - Start at the photo with this id (useful for resuming uploads). Use this in combination with -set
- -end_id - Stop at the photo with this id (useful if you just want to do a part of the upload and later resume with -start_id)
- Options to tell how to work on each image:
- -tags - Filter out a certain tag (only one at the moment, will be changed to support multiple tags).
- -panoramioreview - Mark as panoramioreviewed, this overrides the settings in your user-config.py
- -reviewer - Set the reviewer for panoramioreview, this overrides the settings in your user-config.py
- -override - Remove the licensing part and replace it with something custom. Can be used for transfering copyrighted photo's for which you have OTRS permission. Use with care!
- -addcategory - Manually add a category (will be changed to support multiple categories)
- -autonomous - For autonomous uploading without showing of each image. Use with care!
Syntax:
python panoramiopicker.py -set:5528490 -addcategory
Troubleshooting
[edit]Traceback (most recent call last):
File "panoramiopicker.py", line 28, in <module>
from PIL import Image, ImageTk # see: http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/
ImportError: No module named PIL
You can fix this by manually PIL installation (Archived 2012-04-02 at WebCite) (not by easy_install).
