qeytaks

qeytaks is a keyword editor for photos. qeytaks lets you edit IPTC keywords and set XMP label.

I wrote qeytaks for my own usage as it nicely fits with my photo workflow and integrates well with usage of photofs.

qeytaks is licensed under GPLv3

Installation

qeytaks uses setuptools. To install qeytaks run the following command

$ sudo python setup.py install

Example usage:

$ python qeytaks.py [list-of-paths-to-photos]

KDE integration

To enable context right-click menu that invokes qeytaks do the following:

  1. check what is your service path in KDE:
$ kde4-config --path services
/home/drseergio/.kde4/share/kde4/services/:/usr/share/kde4/services/
  1. create ServiceMenus folder if it does not exist:
$ mkdir -p ~/.kde4/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus
  1. put a file called "qeytaks.desktop" in that folder:
$ vi ~/.kde4/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/qeytaks.desktop
