Can't import photo

[yased]

Hi.

I'm running the script and give the error: lycheesync.lycheesyncer; file at srcdir root won't be added to lychee, please move them in a subfolder: /home/User/FolderWithPhoto. What's wrong?

Hi yased,

Lycheesync needs directory/folder to create albums. For each subdirectory inside the directory you passed to lycheesync (/home/User/FolderWithPhoto in your case) an album will be created with the subdirectory name, these albums will be filled with photos that are theses subdirectories.

In your case some or all your photos are in /home/User/FolderWithPhoto, so lycheesync doesn't know in which album it is supposed to store them, hence, this warning. I could have prefered a random album name but I think this warning is more user friendly.

So the solution to your problem is to store all photos in /home/User/FolderWithPhoto in a sub-directory that will be render as your album name in lychee.

I hope this will help. Tell me.

PS: Maybe you have a suggestion on how to render this more userfriendly. What message would you have prefered ?

Hi, GustavePate.

Thank you. It's help me.

Script have normal logging. I didn't read the instructions full. However, you can add link to point of Readme.md in log, where explains about folder and subfolder. IMHO

Thank you!
