Now the magic script

First, you have to edit the script. Mainly because editing a config file & then importing it into the script is more work & not actually any easier.

cd ~/.shortcuts nano ./photo.sh
edit the section below to set the directories & file types to match your setup/phone

#Image locations

rawdir="/storage/emulated/0/DCIM/IR"
batchdir="/storage/emulated/0/DCIM/IR/batch"
outdir="/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/IR"

Config locations

WBdir="/storage/emulated/0/IR/IR-WB"
SWAPdir="/storage/emulated/0/IR/IR-IM"

This is OPT (i.e. for IR photos)

OPTdir="/storage/emulated/0/IR/IR-OPTS"

This is for the non-IR photos

IMOPTdir="/storage/emulated/0/IR/MOPTS"

HOTSPOTdir="/storage/emulated/0/IR/IR-HS"
LENSdir="/storage/emulated/0/IR/Lens"
CLUTdir="/storage/emulated/0/IR/CLUT"

File types/Extensions

rawext="dng"
outext="jpg"

Script name (arguments)

script_name=$(basename $0)

This lens has hotspot issues

hotspotlens="6.3 mm"

######################################

Don't edit anything below here.

Once you've edited everything to your liking press Ctrl-X then Y then Enter to save the file. (Alternative is Ctrl-O Ctrl-X)

Make sure that the script is executable chmod +x photo.sh

Then go to your homescreen & add widgets to run the set links & get started processing your RAW photos!

The next page explains a bit about the script, but as long as it all works that can stay behind the scenes for most people.
