I have a larger number of files which I would like to prepare with exiftool before importing into CQ5 DAM
All tags work fine - except "-xmp-cq:tags=..."
exiftool "-xmp-cq:tags=railway:Operator/DB, railway:Class/DB/38.10" ..\tempo\64015340.JPG
Warning: Sorry, xmp-cq:tags doesn't exist or isn't writable
Nothing to do.
I understand that I need a config file for this custom XMP extension - so I manually set tags in CQ5 to _one_ file, exported this file and used exiftool to analyze the written XMP structure:
exiftool -xmp -b ..\tempo\64015340.JPG

The part which I need to build a custom config file is pretty much at the end of that list: <cq:tags>
Structure seems to be simple - bag and line
This is my config file
##
print "Custom ExifTool config loaded!\n";
%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined = (
# XMP tags may be added to existing namespaces:
'Image::ExifTool::XMP::xmp' => {
tags => { Writable => 'lang-alt' },
cq => { List => 'Bag' },
},
);
1; #end
Trying again to set custom XMP ...
exiftool -config day2.cnf "-xmp-cq:tags=railway:Operator/DB, railway:Class/DB/38.10" ..\tempo\64015340.JPG
Custom ExifTool config loaded!
Warning: Tag 'xmp-cq:Tags' does not exist
Nothing to do.
obviously the config file is loaded but I did something wrong.
Is there anybody who did this before and who can point me to the right direction ?
Or is there an option to dump a config file just from the exported image (which has the custom structure already included which I need to specify when writing into this extension) ?
Your XMP-cq tags are in a different namespace, just like the XMP-xxx namespace in the example config file (https://exiftool.org/config.html). You should be able to get this working like you want by following this example and changing all "xxx" to "cq".

Thanx, Phil - it is working now
Here is the config file (if somebody is interested):
##
print "Custom ExifTool config day5.cfg loaded!\n";
%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined = (
# new XMP namespaces (ie. xxx) must be added to the Main XMP table:
'Image::ExifTool::XMP::Main' => {
cq => { # <-- must be the same as the NAMESPACE prefix
SubDirectory => {
TagTable => 'Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::cq',
# (see the definition of this table below)
},
},
# add more user-defined XMP namespaces here...
},
);
%Image::ExifTool::UserDefined::cq = (
GROUPS => { 0 => 'XMP', 1 => 'XMP-cq', 2 => 'Image' },
NAMESPACE => { 'cq' => 'http://www.day.com/jcr/cq/1.0' },
WRITABLE => 'string',
tags => { List => 'Bag' },
);
command-line looks like this:
exiftool -config day5.cfg "-xmp-cq:tags=properties:orientation/landscape" "-xmp-cq:tags=properties:style/color" OEG_TW55_1955.JPG
Custom ExifTool config day5.cfg loaded!
1 image files updated
Uploading picture into CQ5 shows these tags are set
For now I am happy .. case solved - BR Chris
