wagtail-images-deduplicator 1.0a1

Detect duplicates in the Wagtail images library.

Wagtail Images De-duplicator

wagtail-images-deduplicator is a Wagtail app to detect duplicate images in the admin. It's built with imagehash.

Requirements

Wagtail Images De-duplicator works with wagtail>=3.0.

Installation

Use pip to install this package:

pip install wagtail-images-deduplicator

Configuration

• Add wagtail_images_deduplicator to your INSTALLED_APPS in your project's settings.

• Add the DuplicateFindingMixin to your custom image model. An example of doing it is shown below:

from wagtail.images.models import Image, AbstractImage, AbstractRendition

from wagtail_images_deduplicator.models import DuplicateFindingMixin


class CustomImage(DuplicateFindingMixin, AbstractImage):
    admin_form_fields = Image.admin_form_fields


class CustomRendition(AbstractRendition):
    image = models.ForeignKey(
        CustomImage, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name="renditions"
    )

    class Meta:
        unique_together = (("image", "filter_spec", "focal_point_key"),)

If you choose to add the mixin and have existing image data, you will need to call save() on all existing instances to fill in the new hash value:

from wagtail.images import get_image_model

for image in get_image_model().objects.all():
    image.save()

Settings

WAGTAILIMAGESDEDUPLICATOR_HASH_FUNC

This setting determines the hash function to use.

WAGTAILIMAGESDEDUPLICATOR_MAX_DISTANCE_THRESOLD

This setting determines the maximum distance between 2 images to consider them as duplicates.
The default value is 5.
