Hi,

G'MIC is an open-source framework for image processing, which can be also used via a popular gimp plugin.

I have written a darktable module, which allows to apply G'MIC filters in darktable. I have written this module mainly for academic reasons to be able to test which G'MIC filters might provide a be useful extension to darktable. G'MIC comes with a lot of filters. Not all of them are actually useful in a digital photography context or may even provide valuable new features to darktable. Some are just to slow, for others darktable already has a similar/better functionality, some artistic filters are just beyond the scope of darktable and digital photography. Nevertheless, G'MIC comes with a lot of features one might want to utilize in darktable too.

The current version of the G'MIC module is suitable for advanced users only, who are familiar with the G'MIC scripting language, see https://gmic.eu/tutorial/basics.shtml Note, that the G'MIC gimp plugin can log the applied script on the console. This is useful when you want to apply the same effect in darktable.

If you want to play with G'MIC filters in darktable go to
https://github.com/rabauke/darktable/tree/gmic To compile the module, the G'MIC development files have to be installed.

Try the script

fx_emulate_film_bw 4,100,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,50,50

to get a first impression what the G'MIC module can do. Note that this is pre-alpha software. There might/will be breaking changes in future versions. Ideas and suggestions are welcome.


        Regards,

        Heiko
