- brand.toml is the only place the product name lives; every crate and app
reads it through dac-brand (env vars with legacy fallback, settings folder
with copy-only migration, default library, preset extensions, i18n {app})
- cargo xtask brand check|test, run|install|package, docs, rename-crates,
deny and immich; packaging files are templates rendered from brand.toml
- icons regenerated from brand/icon.svg; upstream branding removed
- MIT licence (segment and fetch stay Apache-2.0); cargo deny licence policy
- clean-room rules in AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md; docs/upstream-merge.md
- plan/ rebuilt and committed; parity tracker reopens Classic rows, adds
PLAN.md section 2 rows and the IMM Immich section; plan/immich.md and a
pinned Immich test server

# Lightroom Classic catalog import
|
||
|
||
> Names in angle brackets (`<app>`, `<binary>`, `<cli>`, `<PREFIX>`, `<settings_dir>`, …) are the values set in
|
||
> [`brand.toml`](../brand.toml); see the README.
|
||
|
||
File → Import Lightroom Catalog… opens `.lrcat` directly. Lightroom, Python, DNG conversion
|
||
and a C SQLite runtime are not required. The source database is read-only, including committed
|
||
`-wal` pages; a catalog that changes during the read is rejected. The app owns subsequent edits.
|
||
|
||
Equivalent commands:
|
||
|
||
```text
|
||
<cli> run --library "<app> Library" library.inspectLightroom path="Lightroom Catalog.lrcat"
|
||
<cli> run --library "<app> Library" library.importLightroom path="Lightroom Catalog.lrcat"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Original files are referenced in place. Ratings, picks/rejects, color labels, XMP metadata,
|
||
hierarchical keywords, regular collections/collection sets, virtual copies and mapped develop
|
||
settings are imported. Missing originals remain catalogued for relinking. Existing
|
||
edits are preserved by default; `updateExisting=true` explicitly replaces them. Persistent import
|
||
identity prevents reimport from duplicating virtual copies and collections. One undo step reverses
|
||
catalog changes; any saved recovery archives remain available.
|
||
|
||
Before changing records, the importer attempts to save source image records, decoded XMP,
|
||
verbatim develop settings, history, snapshots and collection content to compressed
|
||
`Interop/lightroom-import-N.lca` recovery archives in the app's library. Archiving is
|
||
best-effort: a size limit or write failure produces a warning and does not prevent photo import.
|
||
Unchanged source data reuses its existing archive. Opaque SQL BLOBs are skipped. Each archive is
|
||
capped at 32 MiB (uncompressed and on disk), with at most eight archives and 128 MiB total
|
||
retained. Oldest managed archives are retired; legacy `.json` archives remain untouched.
|
||
`Interop/lightroom-index.json` records imported identities. Source catalogs and originals are
|
||
never overwritten.
|
||
|
||
Native import is bounded to a 1 GiB database/WAL, 16 MiB XMP packets and one million rows per
|
||
table. The in-tree, read-only Rust SQLite B-tree reader follows SQLite’s public file-format
|
||
specification; it introduces no dependency or C runtime. Table payloads are capped at 256 MiB.
|
||
Optional history, keyword and collection tables that exceed limits are skipped with warnings;
|
||
required photo tables still report errors. Unrelated unsupported schemas are ignored. A needed
|
||
WITHOUT ROWID or virtual table produces an explicit error, handled as a warning when optional.
|
||
|
||
Develop settings reuse the existing XMP/preset mapper. Supported sliders, curves and supported
|
||
mask structures remain editable, but this is approximate rendering: camera profiles, Adobe AI
|
||
models, some masking/retouch fields and process-version algorithms are not reproduced. Unmapped
|
||
fields are reported. When a recovery archive is saved, it retains source settings/history/snapshots
|
||
and original smart-collection rules. Smart collections become regular albums with current
|
||
membership. Archived history and snapshots are source data, not native history yet.
|
||
Lightroom's `-999999` deferred-adjustment sentinel is omitted from both catalog and XMP mappings;
|
||
it is reported, included in any saved archive, and never clamped into a real slider value. Deferred Adobe Auto Tone
|
||
is not evaluated by the importer; the app's Auto control remains available after migration.
|
||
|
||
Native desktop inspection/import runs on a cancellable background worker with progress. Only
|
||
prepared catalog operations commit on the owner thread; archive index writing stays on a worker.
|
||
Late results from a closed or switched library are rejected, including reopening the same path.
|
||
Ordinary edits during preparation remain intact. CLI commands complete synchronously using the
|
||
same preparation/commit pipeline; browser builds reject native catalog import.
|
||
|
||
Archive version 1 begins with the 12 bytes `LC-LRARCH\0\x01Z`, followed by zlib-compressed JSON.
|
||
Recovery readers must cap decompression at 32 MiB. JSON retains source identities, photo paths,
|
||
settings, decoded XMP, keywords, history, snapshots, collection definitions and membership.
|
||
|
||
The importer uses shared Rust code on macOS, Windows and Linux. If originals move between
|
||
computers or volumes, use the app's missing-photo relinking tools to update their paths.
