photoshop - Automate Adobe Raw Development Workflow -
i want automate panorama stitching workflow exposure publish. achieve able automate panorama related parts using ptgui pro. next goal not have batch presets results start processes automatically when image appears in specific folder. workflow looks this:
- import raws in lightroom while applying preset
- export pictures jpgs
- batch-process pictures ptgui pro using preset
- reimport lightroom using preset finetune jpgs
- export jpgs final results, ready publishing
now want automate 5 steps, question automating steps 1, 2, 4 , 5. thought writing custom software and/or use apis , scripts achieve goals. imagine writing program that
- watches specific folder
- calls lightroom/photoshop/camera raw develop , export single fish-eye pictures
- as 3x4 = 12 single images (3 different exposures, 4 positions) processed, calls ptgui
- after ptgui finished, lr/ps called again in (2)
now, general experience software development, think commandline parameters ps/lr ideal not able find any. learned until now, following might starting points:
- photoshop droplets
- lightroom auto import folder watching + maybe custom plugin
- calling photoshop(/lightroom) functions via 1 of photoshop(/lightroom) apis
- photoshop remote control via tcp
- maybe there built-in functions, enable me this, missed them
do have further information pushing me in right direction? has experience automating workflow far? there easier way achieve when thinking outside of box? appreciate possible optimizations in workflow, regarding further automation.
(i posted question on photography while ago, think - programming - fits site better)
