README
PhotoLog
Local desktop app that stamps a date, optional address, and caption on photos — then exports copies. Originals are never modified.
Avalonia only. There is no Gradio / Hugging Face Space UI.
Run
cd PhotoLog.Avalonia
dotnet run
# open a folder path at launch:
dotnet run -- ~/Pictures/trip
Headless pipeline check (no window, no model required):
dotnet run -- --selfcheck
Publish a self-contained binary:
dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 --self-contained true -o bin/publish/linux-x64
Features
- Recursive folder scan with stable name dedup
- EXIF date (or file mtime); optional day override keeps each photo’s clock
- Optional multi-line address stamp
- Optional AI caption (Gemma 4 E2B via llama.cpp, one-time download, then offline)
- Captioned exports are renamed from a filesystem-safe slug of that caption; collisions get
_1,_2, … - Empty caption keeps the original file name
Caption → file name
| Caption | Export base name |
|---|---|
A quiet street at sunset. | A quiet street at sunset.jpg |
| (empty) | original name, e.g. IMG_0123.jpg |
| same caption twice | second file gets _1 before the extension |
Tidy strips chat-template debris, keeps one short line, drops a trailing period — that cleaned line is what stamps and renames.
Layout
- Load a folder
- Select photos (click thumbnails)
- Optional: date override, address, caption (or Caption / Caption selected)
- Apply to selected → stamped copies in the output folder
Model download lives under the platform app-data folder (…/PhotoLog/models).
