This project provides photo/video import and organization tools, similar to Adobe Lightroom's import functionality.

A full-featured cross-platform version with GUI preview and thumbnail support.

Features:

• Cross-platform (Windows, macOS, Linux)
• Preview images with thumbnails
• RAW file support via LibRaw
• Modern Qt6-based UI

See the main build instructions below for this version.

A lightweight, high-performance Windows-native implementation using pure WinAPI and C.

Features:

• Windows-only, optimized for maximum performance
• Pure C implementation with no external dependencies
• Memory-mapped file I/O for fast hash computation
• Native Windows threading
• ~100 KB executable size (vs 10-20 MB for Qt version)
• All core features: scanning, deduplication, custom folder structures, preview
• NEW: Preview folder structure before importing

📖 See README_C.md for details and build instructions

Build the C version:

cd src_c
cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build build --config Release

Or use NMAKE:

cd src_c
nmake /f Makefile.msvc

• Scan folders for photos and videos (recursive option).
• Generate thumbnails (using LibRaw for RAW files).
• Organize files by date (based on file modification time or EXIF).
• Import files (Copy/Move/Add) with duplicate detection (MD5 hash).
• Preview images.
• Cross-platform support (Windows, macOS, Linux).

• CMake 3.16+
• Qt 6.5+ (Core, Gui, Widgets)
• C++17 compiler (GCC 9+, Clang 10+, MSVC 2019+)
• LibRaw (optional, will be fetched automatically if not found)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository_url>
   cd CP

2. Configure:

   cmake -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

   Note: If Qt is not in your PATH, specify -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/path/to/Qt.

3. Build:

   cmake --build build --config Release

4. Run:

   • On macOS: open build/LightroomImportClone.app or ./build/LightroomImportClone
   • On Linux: ./build/LightroomImportClone
   • On Windows: build\Release\LightroomImportClone.exe

• Qt6: Used for GUI and core functionality.
• LibRaw: Used for processing RAW image files. It is automatically fetched via CMake if not found on the system.
