Yandex to Lightroom

Python Script to download images from Yandex.Images for using in Adobe Lightroom.

Features

  • Checking for captcha presence
  • Many filters
  • Multiproccessing is available (option --num-workers)
  • Existing images can be skipped.
  • Set search keywords as Lightroom keywords.
  • Set image url as creator web address (IPTC)

Main requirements

  • Python 3.9+
  • Selenium Wire 4.5.4+
  • Exiftool 12.13+
  • Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge are supported.

Installation

  1. Python
  2. PIP
  3. Selenium Wire
    • pip install selenium-wire
  4. Selenium driver executable
    Get the right driver for your browser (see browser section on the link above) and platform. Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Edge are supported.
    Use option --driver-path to specify the driver's path or add the executable in your PATH.
    Additional helpful pages:
  5. Exiftool
    The exiftool executable must added in your PATH. For macOS, it is done automatically by putting it into /usr/local/bin. For Windows, you must extend your PATH variable.
  6. Yandex to Lightroom
    • pip install yandex2lightroom

Examples

Simple example using Chrome WebDriver:

$ yandex2lightroom Chrome --keywords "vodka, bears, balalaika" --limit 10

Example of using keywords from input file with specific image extension/format:

$ yandex2lightroom Chrome --keywords_from_file input_example.txt --itype=png

All other information can be obtained with the --help argument.

Use case textures for Photoshop

Yandex2Lightroom sets keywords in the images after download. The keywords are the same as you define for the searches itself. To build a useful library for wall textures in Lightroom we need different searches with meaningful keywords. We should place these searches - better: the corresponding Yandex2Lightroom commands - into a batch or shell script file. Thereby, we are able to repeat the download commands to a later point in time again. For Windows y2lr-texture-wall.bat

After the images were downloaded, import them into LR:

  • Just add, of course.
  • Maybe not use your standard metadata preset.

Please check the keywords. Sometimes LR does not import them all. In Adobe Bridge they are fine, but not in LR. If so, select all images and read in the metadata again.
Also, some images may have no keywords because the exiftool run into a problem. There is a smart collection in LR to look for images without keywords. So at least you have a chance to set keywords manually.
