import-pictures - copy/move pictures from a directory
import-pictures [options]
import-pictures copies or moves pictures from one directory (for example from a mounted camera) to another directory. You can choose date ranges from within to copy the images. For example you can just choose the pictures from one day of the event in one directory and after that you can move the other day into another directory.

Move pictures instead of copying
Use exif metadata as data instead of creation date of the file
Comma separated list of file extensions to work on (default jpg and nef)
From which directory pictures should be copied.
Where to copy the pictures to. If targetdir does not exist it will be created.
From which date images should get copied. You can use relative dates as used in the date command.
Until which date images should get copied. You can use relative dates as used in the date command.
Starting number for the _COUNTER_ template
Use exifautotran to rotate the pictures automatically
Don't do anything, just print out what would happen.
You can rename files according to a simple template string. Currently the following template strings are supported:
This is a counter which gets incremented for every picture
Will be replaced by the according date strings.
NOTE: Don't add a file extension the templat or you will end with doubled extensions.
For example 'foobar-_YEAR__MONTH__DAY_-_COUNTER_' results in filenames like foobar-20060916-44.nef
Copy the pictures from the last week up to now based on their exif tag and rename them to last_week-YearMonthDay-Counter.suffix
% import-pictures --exif --start-date 'one week ago' --origin /mnt/cam/DCIM/
--to Bilder/Last_Week --template 'last_week-_YEAR__MONTH__DAY_-_COUNTER_'Alexander Wirt <formorer@formorer.de>
