Mirgrate albums from G Photos to QuMagie

Post by beshur »

Hello.

Today I received a "happy" letter from Google informing me that free tier in Google Photos will be ending next June.

I rely on it a lot, for all my family photos and sharing we use Google Photos and overall it's a great product.
Also we have a lot of pictures, and I don't want to buy storage from G going forward.

I tried QuMagie and found it quite great, with most of the features matching G Photos.
Does it have any programmatic API?

I want to develop a solution to enable photos albums recreation in QuMagie.
I have some experience with Google Photos API. On a first glance the task looks not very complex:
  • fetch albums data from G
  • get all the photos filenames
  • find those photos filenames on the NAS
  • create albums with those filenames
I would be glad to collaborate with someone on this.

Actually I expect that someone has already done this. Let me know if this is true.

Okay, this is going to be even easier, since Google allows for data export now (search for takeout google).
Ordered a photos export to look at the data avaialable.

I don't have the knowledge to help with this endeavor, but I would like to do the same thing. I am hoping QuMagie is a good replacement. So far I have not been able to get my photos to show up (same with photostationn) even though it indexed thousands. It also looks like the app was pulled from the google play store.

Use rclone to copy gphoto to a local folder recognized by Qumagie.
