Execute script after each capture ?

Execute script after each capture ? was created by Frank

Hello,
Is-it possible to execute a script (sh or py) after each capture in the scheduler ?
I would like to write in a file some information about the weather (from Openweathermap) for each capture.
Thank you,
Frank

Not a feature that I know of. But would make for a good addition to the capture module as opposed to the scheduler. Maybe open a thread for it under Wishlist. Otherwise your next option is to write an external script that runs as the images are saved.

There is a Script Manager tool in the capture tool. You can have it execute a script pre or post Job or pre or post capture. I use it to execute a script after each capture to sync my captures to network storage from my PI4.

Sorry about the multiple posts. I keep getting an error when I hit submit and hit submit a few times.

Ah! 'Tunafish' is correct. I must be blind. Sorry for the bad advice.

Hello,
Sorry for this delay.
And yes, perfect, I didn't see that :blush:
Thank you so much,
Frank

PS. How can I get the name of the capture for a script ?

Hi Frank,

Maybe indilib.org/developers/dev-howtos/148-db...h-kstars-python.html can help.
