Piwigo and shotwell can now talk to each other

[Guillaume Viguier]

Hi,

I just wrote a connector to allow shotwell to upload to Piwigo. There
are still a few limitations (see
http://piwigo.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16431&p=2 ) but the connector
works and allows you to send your pictures to a Piwigo installation.

The code can be found here:
https://github.com/guillaumev/piwigoshotwell

I'd like to know how the shotwell team will go about testing and
integrating this into Shotwell.


Thank you.

Two observations
- you can get rid of the Config.vala changes and keep the code cleaner
if you use the generic set/get_publishing_string functions as the
picasa, youtube and yandex services do in trunk.
- you set MediaType.VIDEO in capabilities but the code does not seem to
handle video otherwise

the easiest would be to provide a link to a running piwigo instance
where it can be tested. Also I think the Shotwell team prefers issues
being open in trac and having the patch attached.

Thanks for the code review, Jani!

That's true. In fact, after Guillaume sent his message to this list he
posted a patch to http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2639 and there's a
discussion active there now.
