πŸ’– LENS-SUBMIT πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to LENS-SUBMIT(1) β€” it lives in the User Contributed Perl Documentation section of your man pages, and it is literally the most low-key useful lil tool. let's get into it πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

lens-submit β€” collect lens and EXIF data πŸ¦‹


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

lens-submit project1.pto project2.pto [...]

Options: none, bestie β€” it's giving minimalism. BUT if you wanna switch up where the data collection server lives, use the LENS_URL environmental variable, and if you need a proxy, http_proxy has your back ✨


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so lines-submit (that's what the page says, don't come for me 😭) is a simple tool that:

  1. reads a Hugin .pto project
  2. finds the first lens
  3. gathers some lens and EXIF data
  4. submits it via HTTP to a central collecting server πŸ‘‘

the way it's so straightforward. main character energy fr fr.

Data submitted is anonymous β€” no serial numbers, no user names, no dates, no file names get submitted. not a single one. privacy queen behavior πŸ’œ

BUT πŸ‘€ your ip-address can be logged by the server, because the submission goes out as a normal HTTP GET request. so like, anonymous-ish, iykyk.
