Adobe CLI tool: config import/export, batch mode
- Download the latest release from the link above
- Extract the archive (WinRAR / 7-Zip)
- Run
python main.py(or see Usage below) - Configure settings in
config.yaml
The config.yaml file lets you tweak how the tool works. Here's an example:
# Configuion for adobe-tool
paths:
adobe_install_dir: "C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Photoshop 2023"
config_backup_dir: "C:\\AdobeToolBackups"
batch_input_file: "batch_input.txt"
settings:
export_format: "xml" # xml or json
auto_detect_version: true
timeout_seconds: 60
#Advanced settings (use with caution)
advanced:
threads: 4
retry_attempts: 3
#TODO: Add logging configadobe_install_dir should point to your Adobe installation. config_backup_dir is where your backups will be stored. batch_input_file is the path to the batch processing file.
export_format can be xml or json. auto_detect_version tries to figure out the Adobe version automatically. timeout_seconds is how long to wait for opeions to finish.
Advanced settings like threads control how many threads to use, and retry_attempts is how many times to retry failed opeions. Careful with these!
First, make sure you have Python 3.11 or later installed.
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/markt-eng95j5/adobe-tool.git - Navigate to the directory:
cd adobe-tool - Install the requirements:
pip install -r requirements.txt
That's it! You're ready to go.
Run it from the command line:
python core.py --help
This will show you all the available options. Some common uses:
- Export config:
python core.py --export --profile "MyProfile" - Import config:
python core.py --import --profile "MyProfile" --file "backup.xml" - Batch mode:
python core.py --batch --input "batch_input.txt"
Make sure your config.yaml is set up correctly first!

I'm getting an error "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'yaml'". What do I do?
You need to install the PyYAML package. Run `pip install pyyaml`.Can I use this with older versions of Adobe software?
It's designed for newer versions, but it *might* work with older ones. No guarantees though. Try it and see!How do I create a batch input file?
The batch input file should be a plain text file with one command per line. Each line should be a valid command that you could run from the command line. Example: ``` --export --profile "Profile1" --import --profile "Profile2" --file "backup.json" ```- Problem: "I'm getting a "Permission denied" error."
- Solution: Run the script as administor.
- Problem: "The script is not detecting my Adobe installation."
- Solution: Double-check the
adobe_install_dirinconfig.yaml. - Problem: "The script is timing out."
- Solution: Increase the
timeout_secondsinconfig.yaml. Also, ensure that Adobe application is not running in the background.
