==How it works [[Image:Cog-scripted-svg-blue.svg|25px]]==
https://www.pinterest.com/camedu939/
There are two scripts that need to be used.
# The first script is used to scan all JPEG images in the directory, and store the information such as date, camera information and so on into a CSV (comma separated value) file. The image names and column headings are automatically added.
# Using any Spreadsheet software, fill up the various fields such as description, new name, category and so on.
# Run the second script to read the CSV file data, and upload the corresponding file to commons.
 
==Disclaimers [[Image:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px]]==
http://camude.blogspot.in/
 
* This script is largely untested for all possible permutations and combinations. Use at '''your own risk'''. See also [[#Bugs]].
http://camedu.wallinside.com/
* Back up all images before uploading.
* The script will '''automatically upload over''' existing images. Make sure you check if the file name you supplied does not exist in commons.
* The script does not check if you have renamed the file correctly. Beware of introducing duplicate file names when renaming.
* By default, your commons password is visible on the monitor when asked to enter it. To hide it use: '''<code>perl upload.pl - secure</code>'''
* This script is currently limited to uploading only self-created photographs in JPG/JPEG format. Support for [[User_talk:Nichalp/Upload_script#About_non-JPEG's|other formats]] coming soon.
 
==Essentials [[image:Start hand.svg|25px]]==
http://camedu.tumblr.com/
You must have the following installed to run the scripts:
# [[w:Perl|Perl]]
# ExifTool library
# Text:CSV parser library
# libjpeg.
 
Read the [[/installation|installation guide]] to install the above for Microsoft Windows or Linux.
A smart mind needs right guidance to create wonders and in today’s world, the right guide is just a click away.
 
==Executing the script [[Image:Gnome-devel.svg|25px]]==
Learning is as much about the effort of the students as it is about the effectiveness of the teaching methodology. and the online world, the medium of delivering the content is the most important aspect when it comes to the way the students are taught. We endeavour to simplify the complex process of delivering the course content to the students and create platforms where students not only understand the key concepts but grasp them such that they are always at their fingertips.

[[Image:Nichalp-script.png|thumb|Script execution in progress.]]
 
# Create a new folder.
Departing from the conventional teaching methodologies, we aim to create custom content for clients, with the sole goal of meeting all their requirements in the best possible manner. We have in-house capabilities to create online course content in various mediums, including text, videos, graphics, animations, simulations and audio. All contents are designed and created as per global standards and follow the pedagogy and processes that you require. We put emphasis on applying the most apt instructional strategy to come up with online course content that puts the students at ease while following the guidelines of your organization.
# Copy the images you want to upload into the above folder.
#*[[Image:Nuvola apps kate.png|25px]] '''Note:'''- Images must contain the only following file extensions (.JPG, .jpg, .jpeg, .JPEG) to be picked up by the script. (PNG and other filetype support to come later)
#*[[Image:Nuvola apps important yellow.svg|25px]]'''Caution''':- Make sure you have backups of all images to be uploaded
# Copy the perl scripts: ''[[/csv_creator.pl|csv_creator.pl]]'' and ''[[/upload.pl|upload.pl]]'' into the folder.
# In the command line (Terminal in Linux/DOS in Windows), navigate to the above folder.
# Run ''csv_creator.pl'' from the command line by typing: '''<code>perl csv_creator.pl</code>'''
#:A CSV (comma separated value) file, ''upload.csv'' is created in the folder. The CSV file includes the header line, the list of image file names in the folder, and the corresponding image Exif information.
# Add the necessary information you want to the CSV file. To know how to format data in the CSV file, please read [[User:Nichalp/Upload script/csv fields|CSV fields explained]]. You can edit the data in your favourite spreadsheet software such as LibreOffice Calc or Microsoft Office Excel.
# Save the CSV file.
# Run ''upload.pl'' from the command line by typing: '''<code>perl upload.pl</code>'''
#* To specify your CSV file location, use '''<code>perl upload.pl file.csv</code>'''
#* To hide your password while typing it, use '''<code>perl upload.pl - secure</code>'''
#* To tell Perl to not load huge images/files into memory, but read them directly from disk while uploading, use '''<code>perl upload.pl - - disk</code>'''
#* If your CSV file does contain any UTF-8 (non-ASCII) characters, use '''<code>perl upload.pl - - - utf8</code>'''
# You are then asked to enter your username and password.
# The script then uploads the image along with the associated metadata. Errors if any, are logged in ''debug.txt''.
# A ''gallery.txt'' file is created in the same folder. This file contains the list of images marked up with the gallery wiki syntax. If you need, you can use the text to create image galleries.

==Bugs [[image:Nuvola apps bug2.svg|25px]]==
With our expertise, you can get the contents optimised for the two key mediums of accessing information online – computers and mobile devices. The boom in mobile devices like smartphones and tablets has led to the need of contents that can be easily understood and memorised on the smaller screen. We can create for you the perfect content for PCs/laptops and smart phones/tablets such that all concepts are grasped by the students seamlessly even when they switch between the two mediums.
# The last version will give a strange declaration error concerning $csv. See [[User talk:Nichalp/Upload script]] for a fix.
# Enabling it for different file types like .png is possible. See [[User talk:Nichalp/Upload script]].
We understand outsourcing the most critical aspect of the educational process – namely the content – can be a burden to many. Thus, we aim to partner with you in such a manner that you are involved in every step and can keep an eye on the whole process of content development for online courses. With this, we can shoulder the burden of creating the appropriate content for all ages, while you keep your eye on the big picture even as you remain abreast of even the minutes details in the online content
# Using permission "1" or "7" will result in unwanted outcomes. See [[User talk:Nichalp/Upload script]] for a fix.
# May hang if the computer is unattended for a long time. Solution: Check the last file uploaded. Quit the program, open the CSV file, delete all entries up to the last uploaded file. And restart the process.
# HTML formatting may appear in the command prompt. Reason unclear. Possible solution: Avoid editing in commons when uploading.

[[Category:Nichalp's upload script| ]]
We offer two moths free access to our learning platform to our potential school partners. We also create a separate learning platform to our school partners where their teachers and students can interact live to share their teaching and learning. On this platform, teachers can upload their homework which can be accessed by students at their home at any time and to answer these questions live. This methodology created an environment of sharing learning among each stakeholders of the child educational journey.
