Nautilus thumbnail generator (threaded)

February 15, 2019 Dave

Code Python

0 Comment

I found a modified a python script to do multi threaded nautilus thumbnail generation.
With a large NAS, i don’t want to spend time waiting for thumbnails to be made, while entering a folder.

Run this as a cron job once a week and have thumbnails pre-generated 🙂

The code

Python


#!/usr/bin/python
import os
import sys
import gi
import threading
import time

threads = []

gi.require_version('GnomeDesktop', '3.0')
from gi.repository import Gio, GnomeDesktop

def make_thumbnail(factory, filename):
    mtime = os.path.getmtime(filename)
    # Use Gio to determine the URI and mime type
    f = Gio.file_new_for_path(filename)
    uri = f.get_uri()
    info = f.query_info(
        'standard::content-type', Gio.FileQueryInfoFlags.NONE, None)
    mime_type = info.get_content_type()

    if factory.lookup(uri, mtime) is not None:
        print "FRESH       %s" % uri
        return False

    if not factory.can_thumbnail(uri, mime_type, mtime):
        print "UNSUPPORTED %s" % uri
        return False

    thumbnail = factory.generate_thumbnail(uri, mime_type)
    if thumbnail is None:
        print "ERROR       %s" % uri
        return False

    print "OK          %s" % uri
    factory.save_thumbnail(thumbnail, uri, mtime)
    return True

Raspberry pi 3 CSI camera with motion /dev/video0

There are a number of topics on the web, about getting a modified version of motion (motion-mmcal) to work with raspberry pi v2.1 CSI camera.

A simpler method is to expose the camera interface through the standard video 4 linux kernel interface /dev/video0.

This can be achieved by simply enabling the video 4 linux kernel module and installing the standard motion.

Install motion

Shell


apt-get install motion

apt-get install motion

Enable the kernel module on boot

Shell


# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.
#
# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded
# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

i2c-dev
cuse
bcm2835-v4l2

# /etc/modules: kernel modules to load at boot time.

# This file contains the names of kernel modules that should be loaded

# at boot time, one per line. Lines beginning with "#" are ignored.

i2c-dev

cuse

bcm2835-v4l2

Load the module without reboot

Shell


modprobe bcm2835-v4l2

modprobe bcm2835-v4l2

Start service as normal

Shell


systemctl enable motion
systemctl start motion

systemctl enable motion

systemctl start motion

Raspberry pi 3 disable red and green lights

Disabling the lights on raspberry pi has been documented a number of times on the web.
If differs from model to model, however the following method just sets the brightness to zero and should work on all models.

Modify your /etc/rc.local too like the following

Shell


#!/bin/sh -e
#
# rc.local
#
# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
# value on error.
#
# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
# bits.
#
# By default this script does nothing.

# Print the IP address
_IP=$(hostname -I) || true
if [ "$_IP" ]; then
  printf "My IP address is %s\n" "$_IP"
fi

echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/led1/brightness
echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/led0/brightness

exit 0

#!/bin/sh -e

# rc.local

# This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.

# Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other

# value on error.

# In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution

# bits.

# By default this script does nothing.

# Print the IP address

_IP=$(hostname -I) || true

if [ "$_IP" ]; then

printf "My IP address is %s\n" "$_IP"

echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/led1/brightness

echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/led0/brightness

exit 0
