Aperture library importer for Aspect

This add-on allows you to choose an Aperture library and import its contents into an Aspect library. The following elements will be imported:

  • Files (RAWs, JPEGs and edited versions)
  • Projects will be converted to events
  • Folders will be replicated as groups in the collection pane
  • Albums, books, light tables etc. will be imported as collections
  • Keywords will be converted to XMP metadata

The add-on is written in a way that allows to re-run the import without causing data duplication. As long as the imported collections/events do not get renamed, this allows to run the import with newer versions of the add-on to profit from later improvements.

Version compatibility

This add-on requires Aspect version 1.0.0-preview.39 or later.

Installation

Copy the "aperture-importer" folder of this repository into the add-on folder of your Aspect installation. The folder can be found in the following location:

  • Windows: %AppData%\Roaming\Bildhuus\Aspect\addons
  • macOS: ~/Library/Aspect/addons
  • Linux: ~/.config/aspect/addons

Note that you may need to create the folder if it doesn't exist, yet.

Known limitations

The following elements are not currently imported:

  • Metadata edits apart from keywords
  • Files stored outside of the Aperture library
  • Faces
  • Image adjustments
  • Image stacks
