Do you not need to stop and catch your breath? No? Well then, let's proceed with your fourth lesson — your first Script-Fu Script.
One of the most common operations I perform in GIMP is creating a box with some text in it for a web page, a logo or whatever. However, you never quite know how big to make the initial image when you start out. You don't know how much space the text will fill with the font and font size you want.
Mistr Script-Fu (ale i nadaný student) si brzy uvědomí, že lze takový problém snadno a automaticky řešit pomocí Script-Fu.
Proto vytvoříme skript, který pojmenujeme Text Box a který vytvoří obrázek o velikosti přesně odpovídající zadanému textu. Uživatel bude mít možnost zvolit i řez písma, jeho velikost a barvu.
Up until now, we've been working in the Script-Fu Console. Now, however, we're going to switch to editing script files. Script files should be plain text files that you can edit in a text or code editor. The name you give is not that important, except for being able to recognize the script. You should give your script file the extension „.scm“.
Where you place your scripts is a matter of preference. In GIMP's folder preferences you can see in which folders GIMP looks for scripts. It is also possible to add a new folder there. The folder where GIMP stores its own scripts is usually not the best choice for your scripts, but for the rest feel free to choose what suits you best.
Každý Script-Fu skript definuje alespoň jednu funkci, hlavní funkci skriptu. Ta je zodpovědná za činnost skriptu.
Every script must also register with the procedural database, so you can access it within GIMP.
Nejprve definujeme hlavní funkci:
(define (script-fu-text-box inText inFont inFontSize inTextColor))
Here, we've defined a new function called
script-fu-text-box
that
takes four parameters, which will later correspond to some text, a
font, the font size, and the text's color. The function is currently
empty and thus does nothing. So far, so good — nothing new,
nothing fancy.
Konvence jazyka Scheme pro vytváření jmen upřednostňují malá písmena a pomlčky, tak jako jsme učinili při výběru jména funkce. Při pojmenovávání jejích parametrů jsme se však od konvence odchýlili. Mám rád jména popisná, která o funkci nebo parametru hodně říkají, proto jsme pro parametry použili předponu in
, která naznačuje, že parametry obsahují hodnoty předávané skriptu, nikoliv skriptem vytvořené. Pro proměnné vytvořené uvnitř skriptu používám předponu the
.
It's GIMP convention to name your script functions
script-fu-abc
,
because then when they're listed in the procedural database, they'll
all show up under Script-Fu when you're listing the functions. This
also helps distinguish them from plug-ins.
Now, let's register the function with GIMP. This is
done by calling the function script-fu-register
.
When GIMP reads in a
script, it will execute this function, which registers the
script with the procedural database. You can place this
function call wherever you wish in your script, but I usually
place it at the end, after all my other code.
Zde je výpis naší registrační funkce (její parametry vzápětí vysvětlím):
(script-fu-register "script-fu-text-box" ;function name "Text Box" ;menu label "Creates a simple text box, sized to fit\ around the user's choice of text,\ font, font size, and color." ;description "Michael Terry" ;author "copyright 1997, Michael Terry;\ 2009, the GIMP Documentation Team" ;copyright notice "October 27, 1997" ;date created "" ;image type that the script works on SF-STRING "Text" "Text Box" ;a string variable SF-FONT "Font" "Charter" ;a font variable SF-ADJUSTMENT "Font size" '(50 1 1000 1 10 0 1) ;a spin-button SF-COLOR "Color" '(0 0 0) ;color variable ) (script-fu-menu-register "script-fu-text-box" "<Image>/File/Create/Text")
If you save these functions in a text file with a
.scm
suffix
in your script directory, then choose
→ → ,
this new script will appear as
→ → → .
Pokud ale skript spustíte, neudělá samozřejmě nic užitečného, ale uvidíte výzvy vytvořené při registraci skriptu (podrobnosti dále).
Finally, if you invoke the Procedure Browser (
→ ), you'll notice that our script now appears in the database.
To register our script with GIMP, we call the
function script-fu-register
, fill in the seven
required parameters and add our script's own parameters, along with a
description and default value for each parameter.
Povinné parametry
The name of the function we defined. This is the function called when our script is invoked (the entry-point into our script). This is necessary because we may define additional functions within the same file, and GIMP needs to know which of these functions to call. In our example, we only defined one function, text-box, which we registered.
The menu label is the name that will be shown in the menu. In previous versions of GIMP you could specify the menu location here, but that has changed. How to specify the location will be shown below.
Popis skriptu, který se zobrazuje v Prohlížeči procedur.
Vaše jméno (jméno autora skriptu).
Copyright, informace o autorských právech.
Datum, kdy byl skript napsán nebo naposledy revidován.
The types of images the script works on. This may be any of the following: RGB, RGBA, GRAY, GRAYA, INDEXED, INDEXEDA. Or it may be none at all — in our case, we're creating an image, and thus don't need to define the type of image on which we work.
Po uvedení obecných, povinných parametrů je třeba uvést parametry, které vyžaduje náš skript. V seznamu těchto parametrů je také třeba uvést jejich typ, což umožní správně zobrazit dialog, ve kterém uživatel parametry nastavuje. Také zadáme výchozí hodnoty těchto parametrů.
Tato část registračního procesu používá následující formát:

Beside the above parameter types there are more types for the
interactive mode, each of them will create a widget in the control
dialog. You will find a list of these parameters with descriptions and
examples in the test script

TODO: Description SF-BRUSH "Brush" '("Circle (03)" 100 44 0) Here the brush dialog will be popped up with a default brush of Circle (03) opacity 100 spacing 44 and paint mode of Normal (value 0). If this selection was unchanged the value passed to the function as a parameter would be '("Circle (03)" 100 44 0). |

It will create a widget in the control dialog. The widget is a combo-box showing all enum values for the given enum type. This has to be the name of a registered enum, without the "Gimp" prefix. The second parameter specifies the default value, using the enum value's nick. SF-ENUM "Interpolation" '("InterpolationType" "linear") The value returned when the script is invoked corresponds to chosen enum value. |
Once we have registered our script, we need to tell GIMP where it should be found in the menu.
The best menu location of your script depends on its function. Most scripts are found in the
and menus.
For the current script, which creates a new image, we choose a submenu
of
script-fu-menu-register
function does.
Thus, we registered our Text Box script here:
→ → → .
If you notice, the Text sub-menu in the File/Create menu wasn't there when we began — GIMP automatically creates any menus not already existing.
