Lua Console Lightroom Plugin

About

This plugin adds "Lua Console" for Lightroom 3.0+, in which you can evaluate lua code.

Example code:

local LrApplication = import 'LrApplication'
local catalog = LrApplication.activeCatalog()

local s = ""
for i  = 0, 5 do
    local photos = catalog:findPhotos {
        searchDesc = {
             criteria = "rating",
             operation = "==",
             value = i,
        }
    }
    s = s .. string.format("Rate %d: %05d photo(s)\\n", i, #photos)
end

return s

This code reports the distribution of ratio, like:

Rate 0: 17920 photo(s)
Rate 1: 00033 photo(s)
Rate 2: 00023 photo(s)
Rate 3: 00013 photo(s)
Rate 4: 00004 photo(s)
Rate 5: 00010 photo(s)
