Apple OSX Script Editor - Photos Suite function make in javascript

131 Views Asked by At

Does anyone knows how to use the javascript functions of the Photo Suite in Apple's OSX script editor? The documentation is really bad or I do not understand the way of using it.

Doc description:

make method : Create a new object. Only new albums and folders can be created.
make
new: type : The class of the new object, allowed values are album or folder
[named: text ] : The name of the new object.
[at: Folder ] : The parent folder for the new object.
Album or Folder : The new object.

My code:

nameOfAlbumForPhotosWithoutAlbum="PhotosWithoutAlbum"

I tried the following, however none worked:

albumForPhotosWithoutAlbum=photos.make(album,nameOfAlbumForPhotosWithoutAlbum)
albumForPhotosWithoutAlbum=photos.make(photos.album,nameOfAlbumForPhotosWithoutAlbum)
albumForPhotosWithoutAlbum=photos.make(photos.album.type,nameOfAlbumForPhotosWithoutAlbum)

After reading the manual again, I tried the following, again without success. It returns: Can't find variable: Album. The same happens to lower case. I tried typeof, but I do not know how to get the type of the class Album.

albumForPhotosWithoutAlbum=photos.make({new:Album.name,named:"TestFolder"})

Thanks!
