## Name
|
|
|
|
script_manager.lua - a tool for managing the darktable lua scripts
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
script_manager is designed to run as a standalone script so that it
|
|
may be used as a drop in luarc file in the user's $HOME/.config/darktable
|
|
($HOME/AppData/Local/darktable on windows) directory. It may also be
|
|
required from a luarc file.
|
|
|
|
On startup script_manager checks to see if there is an existing scripts directory.
|
|
If there is an existing lua scripts directory then it is read to see what scripts are present.
|
|
Scripts are sorted by "category" based on what subdirectory they are found in, thus with a lua
|
|
scripts directory that matched the current repository the categories would be contrib, examples,
|
|
offical, and tools. Each script has an Enable/Disable button to enable or disable the script.
|
|
|
|
A link is created to the user's Downloads directory on linux, unix and MacOS. Windows users must create the
|
|
link manually using mklink.exe. Additional "un-official" scripts may be downloaded
|
|
from other sources and placed in the users Downloads directory. These scripts all fall in a downloads category.
|
|
They also each have an Enable/Disable button.
