[digiKam-users] execute shell command on batch of images

Hi, I am trying to figure out if it's possible to run a command (git
annex drop $file) on a bunch of images I've selected from within
Digikam. (To be able to use its filtering to select.)

The Batch Queue Manager has a User Shell Script tool, but I'm unclear
how it needs to be used for the above. Does it launch the shell script
in the folder of the images, and if not, how do I pass the image's
location to the script?

I tried creating a wrapper script git-annex-drop.sh and called that
with /path/to/script/git-annex-drop.sh $INPUT, but that fails.

Using latest digikam on Linux.

Thx,
Frederik
