Webodm save options

[zarg404]

Hi
It would be very interesting to be able to save the options we use for a task to reuse them on another task or project.

You absolutely can!

There’s currently two ways to get to this spot, so I guess pick whichever you feel like right now 🤷️ haha

1. Administration → Application → Presets →
   From here, you can add a new Preset or edit an existing one. Then you just need to make sure you choose it from the drop-down when you create new Tasks.

2. New task → Edit (next to Preset name), edit preset, click Save.

Please let me know if that gets you where you need to go!

Docs for this are upcoming! Sorry for not having them ready.

A preset example is
[{“name”: “auto-boundary”, “value”: true}, {“name”: “dsm”, “value”: true}, {“name”: “dtm”, “value”: true}]

For the task, I am running right now, I have the following option in the interface :
auto-boundary: true, build-overviews: true, dsm: true, feature-quality: ultra, matcher-type: bow, mesh-octree-depth: 12, orthophoto-cutline: true, pc-quality: ultra, sfm-algorithm: triangulation, texturing-tone-mapping: gamma, use-hybrid-bundle-adjustment: true, verbose: true

So it is not very easy to go from used options to preset.

Might it be possible to be able to export options of a task to a preset ? Or maybe change the preset style to just paste option from a task ? (without adding all the {" … )

Thanks

To save what you’re using in a Task as a preset for future use, you can Edit the Task and then use Step 2 from above.

Yes, it might be nice to have a way to parse a preset from the clipboard

Hey @zarg404,

Is what I’m showing in my screen grab similar to what you are looking for?

Clipped from an excel file I have been toying with
The preset is made by concatenating a bunch of cells

Willing to share it if you’re interested.

Cheers,

Jeff

My previous screen grab is too small. Here’s a better one.
