Of course I forgot the important part, so there you go.
My script/plugin is to be used predominantly from the command line in batch mode.
What it does:
1) Make a list of jpg-files
2) load each jpg and apply a predefined path (provided by an SVG-file) onto it
3) off this path a selection is made and gets inverted
4) the inverted area is filled black
5) file gets saved
There is room for improvement but basically this is my script, some parts are commented out:
#!/usr/bin/env python
from gimpfu import *
import os
import datetime
def my_function():
path = 'G:\\to\\my\\directory'
#folder_list = os.listdir(path)
#day = datetime.datetime.today().strftime("%Y%m%d")
# for testing set specific date for variable 'day'
day = '20100826' # temporarily set a specific day for testing
datestring = path + '\\' + day
# List of files of the current day's directory
filelist = os.listdir(datestring)
# filelist should contain just jpg-files.
filelist = [ a for a in filelist if '.jpg' in a]
pic = range(len(filelist))
for pic in filelist:
im = pdb.gimp_file_load(datestring + '\\' + pic, pic)
pdb.gimp_vectors_import_from_file(im,
'G:\\to\\my\\directory\\thepath.svg', 1, 0)
pdb.gimp_path_to_selection(im, 'Auswahl', 2, 0, 0, 0, 0)
pdb.gimp_selection_invert(im)
drawable = pdb.gimp_image_get_active_drawable(im)
pdb.gimp_edit_fill(drawable, 0)
pdb.gimp_image_crop(im, 1067, 1055, 296, 105)
# to be set relative to the current image
pdb.file_jpeg_save(im, drawable, datestring + '\\' +
pic[:-4] + '_cut.jpg', pic[:-4] + '_cut.jpg', 1, 0, 0, 0, 'none', 0,
0, 0, 0)
#pdb.gimp_image_delete(gimp.image_list()[0])
pdb.gimp_image_delete(im)
# registration function

Another question that keeps me busy: Are the GIMP modules available only within the GIMP-Python console? So no other console (IDLE in my case) has access to them? That would make things by far easier I guess.
