image-sorter2

One-click image sorting/labelling script. Copies or moves images from a folder into subfolders.

This script is intended to be a help for users sorting a set of mixed images into folders differentiated by classes - e.g. cats image folder, dog images folder, bikes images folder a.s.o. The script launches a GUI which displays one image after the other and lets the user give different labels, corresponding to different folders, from a list provided as input by the user. In contrast to original version, version 2 allows for relabelling and keeping track of the labels. Provides also short-cuts - press "1" to put into "label 1", press "2" to put into "label 2" a.s.o.

Usage:

Check that you have installed all the needed packages listed in requirements.txt (package versions were working as of Feb 2019). Ensure tk is installed, e.g. 'sudo apt-get install python3-tk' See: https://tkdocs.com/tutorial/install.html run 'pip install -r requirements.txt' to install dependencies.

Run 'python sort_folder_vers2.py' or copy the script in a jupyter notebook and run it. You need also to provide your specific input in the file-header (source folder, labels, 'copy' or 'move' mode, path to tracker file, desired file extensions (.jpg, .png, ...), resize keeping original aspect ratio or display original). Read the header in the .py-script, follow the discriptions and make the necessary changes to run it on your machine.
