However to get you on track how to get a file renamed to something like IMG_000001_df2949e69be243042c9aa6e19e96d615_20171231.jpg Speaking for me, I don't have that solution ready.Īnother option is using existing software like SetEXIFData, ExifChanger, ExifRenamer, GraphicConverter or Photo Mechanic and see if it's capable to do your task. Asking for a finished solution only works if you're planning to hire someone for the job or if someone is generously enough to hand you out a solution that he already has in his box. I guess most MR members here including me are willing to help if you can present some lines of code that are not working like expected or give you general directions. There are other tutorials around that are more Mac centric, but those should get you started. One good example of someone who didn't know anything is here on. Just open Terminal and start with simple commands. It's easier than you might think to get into. Using the shell is fun if you start with simple tasks and continue to learn how to make more complex scripts. I am not expert, just having knowledge of programming basically.ĭo you want to learn shell scripting or are you asking for someone writing a script a script for you? What I cannot do is, I guess I need to use run shellscript in automator, whenever I search google, found that info. But I want to sort all of them first checking EXIF created date, and if not using created date.Ģ)Rename Finder Items: Adding Sequential, according to 1 partĤ)Add year month day using EXIF data created dateĪt the end, I want file to be seen like this This part is critical cause some files has EXIF data, some do not. There are many other Meta Data in EXIF and IPTC.I mostly use automator to do most of my job as well as renaming files.ġ)Sort files using "EXIF" data created date, if no info of EXIF, sort according to file created date (I do not want to use file created date directly, cause EXIF and this are different, first I want to check if it has EXIF data created date, if not using file created date) But all options must be used same time. Here is the list of EXIF and IPTC Meta Data supported. List of EXIF and IPTC Meta Data supported: If you do not want that then please do not change default settings. If you want application to read EXIF and IPTC data other than specified file types then you can add new file types here. To use this feature select the check box and give character(s) in input box.Īdd new file types to read EXIF and IPTC meta data: Here you can choose to replace the colon with any valid file name character(s) so if EXIF or IPTC data has colon in it, application replace colon with this character(s). Some EXIF or IPTC data may contain colon (:) which is non file name character in Mac. You can also select the Date and Time format before inserting them in to the File name. You can specify separator between different meta data you have included in the file name. If you have padding mask as 000 then numerical sequence will be 001, 002, 003. Here you can give padding mask for numerical sequence. This is very useful in case of possible duplicate name creation because same meta data in more than one files. You can also add Original File Name and Numerical Incremental Sequence into your mask. ![]() Application retrieves these Meta data from these Photo files and creates a new file name based on the mask you made. ![]() You can also give separator of your choice between these meta data. In mask editor you can create the mask for your new file name. This way metadata makes visual content easily accessible by human language terms or machine readable codes. IPTC Photo Metadata is made to describe and administrate photographs and to provide the most relevant rights related information. You can choose your format using all these Meta data and rename them.
