A concise architecture note for building a server‑side GIMP batch‑mode pipeline with Script‑Fu, covering requirements, minimal design, trust boundaries, checks, failure modes, and change triggers.
Decision guide for automating image edits in GIMP 2.10.x. Compare BIMP, Script-Fu, and Python-Fu for headless batch operations, reproducibility, and scripting flexibility.
Decide between Script-Fu, Python-Fu, and headless batch for GIMP automation with a compact trade-off table and a validated Script-Fu resize-and-export example.
Learn how to invoke GIMP without a GUI, run Scheme‑based Script‑fu to scale and export images, and verify each step before scaling to production.
Goal: Determine whether GIMP’s Procedural Database can provide transparent rollback safety for Script‑Fu when a procedure’s signature changes or is deprecated, so that existing scripts do not need immediate modification. Constraints: The PDB currently keeps a deprecated flag but does not redirect calls; missing procedures raise errors that script authors mus
Cancellation Responsiveness in the Procedural Database GIMP utilizes a progress dialog to allow users to abort active operations. When a user triggers a cancellation, the Procedural Database (PDB) sets a cancellation flag. If the active procedure detects this flag, it terminates and reports the status as 'Procedure cancelled'. However, the responsiveness of
